Thanks, Beth--your moving this up again made me finally pay attention and decide I could spare a few dollars.

Well, if it's good enough for Dale, it's good enough for me. It's got a few of my chances in there now... I'm not doing it for the copeland. I'm _not_ doing it for the Copeland... I'm...

The idea of getting a Copeland for $5 bucks. . .oh I like that. It would be cool if there was a counter on the page to buy the tickets. I wonder how many of us have bought lottery tickets with this chance of success??? Think of it...there are maybe 50 of us currently active on the board seeing these messages...maybe (but I would doubt it) 50 more just browsing the Copeland board and seeing the offer. I've done far more foolish things than sink 5-10 bucks in a lottery or raffle with a chance at something that I would really like to have.

After buying a ticket, bumping this back to the top may not increase my chances of being blessed with a new whistle, but considering the cause, it may increase my chances of being blessed.

Okay after a jab from Beth last night, I have decided to put in my $5. It didn't help me last time, but ya can't win if ya don't play right? Indeed, my five bone raffle ticket doesn't break my bank, but together we can make a stash.

Cheers all - hey, is there gonna be a chat Christmas Party? I'm bringin' the fridge and the swizzle sticks! Alan, bring the pretzels.

Only four hours and 40 minutes before I find out that I did not win!

Keeping an eye out. . .how will the winner be notified? Will Ed McMahon appear at some lucky person (or Feline's) door?
