Our $20,000 Grant

[giza]

So, on Friday night we at the Save Ardmore Coalition were officially presented with our $20,000 Grant from the State of Pennsylvania:



From left to right: Ken Haskin is in the white shirt, I'm in the green shirt (with the shaved head), Scott Mahan is in the black shirt, Si Simons is in the peach colored shirt, and Sharon Eckstein is immediately to his right. It was nice of everyone to wear different colored shirts!

I have no idea why the check is dated last December. Ah, Bureaucracy.

Also, some local folks swung by:



Yes, that's a Dolph plushie I'm holding. It's a long story. (But thanks for the hookup, wolfspawn3!)


Oh, the Philly Phanatic stopped by too:



Yes, he's standing in traffic on Lancaster Ave. Fursuiters, please do not do this at the next con. :-P

If anyone would like to see the full set of my pictures, they're at: http://flickr.com/photos/dmuth/sets/72157607164585627/

The user Mainline Clicks also took a bunch of photos of the event: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mainlineclicks/sets/72157607160295075/

The Ardmore VFW was also selling "social memberships", which I took advantage of and purchased one. So if of you vets out there decide to visit me, I can take you to meet other vets and drink with them. :-P

Omni looks like he saw a UFO lol

I hope he arrived safe and sound, well, as safe and sound as can be expected.

He did.

But I thought he was 30 *cm*, not 30 *inches*. It was quite a shock to unclekage when he saw the size of Dolph. :-P

Out of this whole post, the thing I'm most fixated on is the fact that there is a TV show based on Wulffmorganthaler O_O I had no idea!

I watched some of it on YouTube just now, but I can't listen to spoken Danish without thinking of this video (which I'm sure you've already been shown thousands of times, and you've long since stopped finding it at all amusing): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-mOy8VUEBk

Kamelåså!

Have you seen the sequel (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eng5rJm9X7w)?

Or worse yet, this music video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5A-hRehbYo) with Dolph?

[petercat.livejournal.com]

I've always wondered, does the bank make you use a huge deposit slip for the huge check?

Mmm, Dolph Plushy...

Warm. Fuzzy. Asshole.

[giza.livejournal.com]

Faktum!

Dolph should get our Vote this year!
