Dang Mudd I'm shocked! Didn't think you had any friends? Tony & Steve are pure class! Heartfelt gift given to a great guy... the Muddster. Wear it proud Mudd.

So who else is going to step up and take the plunge into TGMM in the auction? This is the one chance each year to join.

Welcome aboard, Mudd. Also to all the others who are stepping up through the St. Jude Auction - but you have to admit that it is certainly special when other folks/friends buy you a membership.

To those PMing me asking about what TGMM is, sorry answers only go to those who pony up the $150 for the kids and not until the auction is done. It is a leap of faith kind of thing that you'll understand if you join.  :)

To be able to join a great group like you guys, and help out the kids is an amazing oppertunity. When I get home im gonna break open the ol piggy bank with my new pack fund, and im hoping there's enough in there to join. The kids need the money exponentially more than I do.

Way to go Mudd, in my conversations with you and reading your posts etc, it is plain to see that you are more than deserving.

WOW - I guess I've been spending all my TG time over on the auction threads!

Roy - as I've said before, my views about TG are with a different set of eyes than most.....to me, it's more about the people here.......we just happen to have a common interest in traditional bowhunting!  All the members that I've met and had the privilege to spend time with (as well as the members that I've only written to in this virtual world), I consider my brothers and sisters.  I cherish their friendship more than most will know. You, my friend, know of what I speak!

As I said when I posted about Steve's and my sponsorship: for the life of me, I couldn't think of anyone more deserving.  Take the time to re-read the replies to this post. I doubt that there is another soul on TG that would disagree.

I figure that you have "paid it forward" a thousand fold +.  And I know you will continue to do so.  It is IN your character. It's who you are.  Tony Van Dort said it best:  "Every day he makes a difference in the lives of many folks....he is one that will light a candle rather than curse the darkness..."

I'll quote this guy called "Mudd":  "The more you give of yourself, the more you get in return."

Steve and I did what I believe any other members would have done.....and the kids at St. Judes will benefit.  As Cody stated:  "The kids need the money exponentially more than I do."

As for TGMM:  "You'll do well, Pilgrim"

Now....as for Rob's tattooing gear............

Roy - it looks like you "paid it forward" again!

You're a good man Mudd.

Hayslope if you will send me your mailing address I will make you your very own "Robin Hood" hat".

Here is something I just posted on another thread.

Just had a thought!

Ok come on now, don't act too awfully surprised by that statement...lol

If anyone who has been so generous as to make a donation towards someone else's TGMM membership will send me an e-mail with their shipping address, I will take the time over the next month or so and make them their own "Robin Hood" hat and sent it to them.

There is only one down side to this offer..lol If you get one, you must post your picture wearing it so Coaster500 can add it to the list of "Mudd's Merry Men".

God bless,Mudd

PS: Hayslope, you and Steve started something. I have read where several others have picked up on your idea and now others are being sponsored.

How cool is this? Way!! I'm saying..

Best of all besides showing love and care for one another, it sure helps the kids and that truly awesome!
