I'm sorry I missed your call yesterday, but I did listen to your message. However, I am always scared to call the West coast because of the time difference. You can call me back today and I promise to answer this time.

Also, I had a nightmare last night,and both you and Unca Al were in it. I worked for a public school as a secretary, and part of my job was counting change. I Frost-ing HATE CHANGE - the sound it makes when it touches other change, the metalness of its being. *shudders* Anyway, every time I'd leave and come back to my desk, Al would be there, stacking coins on the table top. He'd grin this evil grin at me, and then leave. I'd dump it all into a huge sack, then transport it over my shoulder to a Stonehenge-like circle surrounding several hundred empty plastic gallon milk jugs.

You were there, holding a clipboard and wearing one of those blue hats that Rocky the Squirrel wears, pointing out which jug I was to pour the money into on that particular time. Then you'd make a big x on a piece of paper, and I'd take it back to my desk and stick it in a file folder. But then Al would be there with more change.

The dream ended when the principal started yelling at me for not keeping track of which jug the cash was going into - I tried to tell her that it was YOUR job Bill, but it turns out that you were actually not employed by the school district, and in fact, you were just Frost-ing with me.

I hate your dream you, Bill the Squirrel. That was a dick move.

Meh. You should hear about the dreams she doesn't post on here.

I had a dream last night about how I donated $100 to a local school for an Anti-Scholarship. I awarded it to the graduating senior with the lowest GPA. College aspirations were not required.

Now I'm in a good mood and actually feel like setting something like that up. I don't have a hundred dollars though.

If you convince the school to give the anti-scholarship, and to announce it at graduation as the John Hargrave Memorial Scholarship, I will put up half the money.

You know, we could end up giving money to someone who can only type in lolspeak.

I'm pretty sure they wouldn't let us call it a scholarship since the bottom-of-the-barrel student doesn't exhibit much, but I think "The John Hargrave Celebratory Award" has a nice sound to it.

Put it in bold Whistler, and I'll make the call.

The school I'm thinking of - their cash scholarships/awards are normally $10-$25. I wish I was joking, but I'm not: they have a 2-hour ceremony where they hand out cash gifts of less than $100 to their students. There are a couple of businesses that chip in $200 scholarships, and they have a state-sponsored lottery award, but most of the monetary gifts are small. I know this because it's the school my older two kids graduated from, so I had to sit through the same basic event twice.

I bet they'd let me come and hand it out in person at their awards ceremony - Shakespeare, we could make up a whole fake history of this John person.







Stop encouraging my insanity.

Heck, I'd chip in $25 for that!

As the first to offer bolded money, I would like to suggest that we work the word "kudzu" into the name of the award.

I'm starting a new thread. This is just too awesome to let die in a Bill the Squirrel dream thread.

I am bumping this because it makes me feel better about myself.


I had a dreasm about you, SHP and Kchiki but I can't share it here. But, lets just say, a bunch of baby oil and some cabbage were involved.


Do I get creepy status yet?

Ha! Funny you should bump this thread, Squirrel. I've been talking with others on IM about the Sir John Hargrave Memorial Award, and to date I've received a total of $175 in my paypal account toward it. (This doesn't include the $25 I plan to donate myself.) Anyway, if there are other GABbers interested in getting in on this - let me know!

There will be a new thread on this sometime next month, as John is going to do some sort of contest or promotional tie-in. That said, I'm happy to take your cash now. Just paypal to gentlesnowflake AT gmail DOT com.

Kisses!

Also, I'm not a fan of cabbage Bill, but for $50 toward the scholarship I'd consider eating some.
