It's (past) time for the "Cheerleader's Outfit" funeral pyre. It has served (and raised funds) for the St. Jude Auction here at TradGang for three years running now, nobely (or "sub-nobely" - depending on the strength of your stomache), and now it is time to "FULLY" retire it. As I promised in the "Retired Outfit (again) by Request" thread, of the St. Jude Bidding Forum #4, it was up to me to burn the outfit - to preclude further use in (embarassing) pictures to raise funds. I said I would do it a day ago but as I said somewhere (in a tread) we had to go make arrangements for a new Heat/Air pump yesterday. Today we are still melting here and I almopst forgot it again - but I finally came to my senses. Therefor here it "goes", in all it's glory (and infamy). (In spite of the job(s) it's done, I, for one, will not miss it -

Get ready for the rest of the "Cheerleader's Outfit" demise - and don't let any of the firebugs elbo you out of your viewing position:
Ready to become carbon:
Ready for carbon dateing:
T-t-t-t-hat's all there is, there ain't n'more, folks.
One final thing - the mods, etc. certainly have my permission (if needed) to delete all existing pictures of/from/about it that they may come across ( or keep them for posterity - I did it so I can't care - LOL)- BIG GRIN.

We can rebuild him. Make him flashier, kickier, more winsome than any minigrunt has ever been before!
I'm going shopping right now for a pair of white gogo boots with the tassels on the front. Bern, what size do you wear?

Killdeer, while shopping for his next outfit, please say no to spandex.

They don't make spandex small enough for me - it'd still sag 'n bag (except around the gut - and I'm working on that again)
I think I'll pass on the white tassled boots, Killie, and go break out my cowboy boots again - perhaps I'll become a "Rhinestone Cowboy".
