500 post GIVEAWAY

edited March 2005 in General Discussion
I've come up with something for my traditional 500 post giveaway. My Dad left me this knife that's been sitting around for several years. I've been told that it's post Civil War era homemade. I can't verify that but it definitely looks like it.

It has a 6" fixed steel blade with a brass/wood handle.

Looks cool and would look even better with a good cleanup.

You must have 100 posts to enter.

The winner will be drawn out of a hat, by my daughter, on 5 Mar. I pay for shipping.

GOOD LUCK

Phil

I learn something new everyday.

    I recently passed the 500 post mark so its time for a giveaway. Up for grabs are two books, In The Gravest Extreme by Massad Ayoob and The Concealed Handgun Manual by Chris Bird. Both books are extremely helpful for anyone new to concealed carry or who is thinking about concealed carry, I read both of them when I got my permit several years ago. I will leave it open to anyone who was a member as of the time I posted this message. I will select the winner sometime Sunday night or Monday. Edit: I was planning to give both to the same person. Edit: I will do the drawing tomorrow afternoon, just wanted to bump this back up the list to give any late comers a chance.

    Since I'm coming up on my 500th post I will be giving away a Bass Pro XPS 360 tackle bag. It's only been used twice. I bought it this winter for wading/canoeing but decided I needed a back pack style tackle bag after only a couple of fishing trips. It doesn't have the 360 tackle boxes (I used them in my new bag). Here's the link to see what it looks like:

    http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_44423_100011010_100000000_100011000_100-11-10

    My wife will kill me if she finds out but I've won two giveaways and feel that it's time to repay the kindness. The only rule is that you like to fish and I will pay the shipping (Conus only). I will draw next Tuesday and good luck. I probably won't get it shipped until after Memorial Day weekend to due a camping/fishing trip.

    I think this will be 500 posts. I am proposing this:

    I don't know if you saw the thread, but I have this dog(Porky, not because he's fat) who is afflicted with a love

    of pigs and, later, chickens. I had offered $221.00 to someone who would give him a good home. I have had no

    takers as of yet. He can be yours. All I need is your credit card number, experation date, and the name on the

    card so I can run a credit to you and I will crate him up and ship him right off. Trust me.

    I will may sober up tomorrow (they all say that, don't they)? Goodnight all.[:D][:D][:D]

    I really enjoy communicating with you folks and find this forum not only entertaiing but educational. To celebrate my 500th post I'm going to be giving away a Tasco Long Eye Relief Pistol scope. This 7x32mm scope has 30mm tube and is from the Tasco Custom Shop. It has been used but is in like new condition in original box and not a scratch on it. It is one of the highest quality scopes Tasco makes. This scope will make you believe that Tasco does know how to build a quality scope when it tries hard enough. I'm also giving away a brand new in the box Smith & Wesson folding knife with etched blade and S&W medallion on bolster. All those interested can sign up here and I will pull name on Sunday night.

    i would like to enter thanks

    My old man's backhand used to land,
    Hard on the side of my head.
    I just learned to stay out of his way.
    There's been streetfights, blue lights,
    Long nights with the world sittin' on my chest:
    It just showed me how much I could take.
    Hard times, bad luck.
    Sometimes, life sucks.
    That's all right, I'm ok.
    It ain't nothin' but another day.
