Can one of our Kenosha club members post a flyer @ UW Parkside?

Damon,
I have copies ready to go. The next time I see you, i'll give them too you.

I might make it to Lippold on Saturday. If not it's no big deal to print a few out myself.

PDGA.com has been updated to the correct AM (B-Tier) Pro (C-Tier) information.

I think the Ace Pool is up to $10.00 after the California Tag Challenge @ Crystal Lake. I will be putting together another Tag Challenge in the next few weeks. Details to follow. I'm looking at March 28th after leagues. Jon, you want to help?

Sure!

If Jon is helping with a tag event then I can rent out the pink room that weekend?  

The next tag thing I do will probably be on the Saturday of Easter Sunday weekend, and I'm thinking it will be Stoney longs or Byron.

Diana said, "Are you making money on these tag challenge things?" in a tone of voice that suggested that I should be, and I said, "I might have made $2 on the last one not counting my time dying those discs," and she rolled her eyes.

If anyone hits the ace, Brett, pay them what you have and the ten I'm holding.  I'll pay you at Streamwood if I don't see you on the GLO/NASCAR weekend.

The ace pool is currently $26.00. I'm looking for a weekend in May to run another tag challenge after leagues.

So what program would I use to open a .psd file?

[mirth]

I downloaded & swapped the image with a gif.

[Bruce Brakel]

Hmmm.  I seem to have forgotten how to do pictures.

I did the same thing while you were, but mine involved a break to check on the sick kid.  The $5 coins are slightly bigger than a quarter.  The $1 coins are slightly smaller than a nickel.  They are shiny and gold but it is hard to get gold metallic to look gold in the picture so I photoshopped it a little.  

This is funny:  they showed up on Wednesday before I left while Steve was here making the new closet.  "Someone" [not me; I don't tidy up] thought it was a bucket of drywall mud and put it with Steve's stuff.  Steve put more stuff on top of it, covering the address label.  When he left, someone tidied again and put it somewhere for Steve to find when he comes back to do finish sanding.  

I saw the bucket sitting there before I left for Iowa and thought, "I've never seen drywall mud in squarish buckets before.  I bet it saves a little on shipping or something."

I called the mint and expressed my anxiety and frustation over the non-delivery or misdelivery of the coins.  I guess now I have to call and apologize.

Now I removed the picture entirely from your first post....


Maybe a good description of how the coins look while new is like the Sacagawea dollars when they first came out?

[CEValkyrie]

Those look sweet. Now that is some cool funny money!!!

If Sacageawea had spiky hair and a torch!  The $5 coins are about that size, yeah, but the ones are smaller.

I meant more the gold color....

[Bruce Brakel]

I meant more the gold color....

I know.  That's just what passes for humor with me.  

I counted and rolled my $5 coins tonight.  I received seven extra $5s!  Woo-hoo!  That's almost like being $35 richer.  Rolling them will keep them newer and shinier longer and will make them easier to count in the future.

I also counted and rolled my $1s and counted three extra of those.  I've got enough extra here to buy three Z-Crushes, including one cool dyed one, from myself!

[mirth]

humor, bah!

Illinois Open Series web pages have been updated with last year's champions, information on this year's points system and a few cosmetic changes. Is it complex enough to call it a web site yet or is still just a mingling of web pages?

[Bruce Brakel]

On the page that shows last year's winners, the link from the player name to his PDGA stats is a nice touch.
