The first "Thank You" goes to Gerald for setting this up - what a great idea!

I enjoyed selecting some goodies to send out, and I appreciate the reminder that what makes this hobby fun is sharing it with others.

Thanks again, Gerald. Good job!

Mike

A box from the Cape

Got into the office this afternoon and found a box on my desk with a familiar return address.
ECchopper RAOK'd me with 2 RWB Muscle Machines and a BWF Muscle Machine.
Thanks, Rob!!

The missing piece I needed, the Bad to the Bone BWF! I have an empty spot in the case for it. That spot always reminded me that I wasnt complete but it will be filled tonight. Plus the cool Motor Max American Grafitti 49 Mercury. Thats going in the same case! No return address.

BOOM! I GOT RAOKed!

Gerald you sly dog! I'm sitting at my desk this morning mulling over if I really want to grade some late work (Yes I'll get it done today) and my buddy walks in. I guess I can delay that grading for a moment and check my mail down in the office. I look as we walk into the mail room. There is a box...sitting in front of my mail box...Hmmm it is from a diecast company....Dang it! My day just got a whole lot better! The box is from Gerald ...Hmmm Imagine that!
Well I dance all the way back to my room and sit at my desk and open this box and what to my shining eyes did appear, not a sled and reindeer but there was a GreenLight High Country Special 1968 Mustang, sweet car! I dig some more there are two Hotwheels one is a 8 crate and one is a Muscle tone BUT They are special because they are a winner and a loser ET cars from AutoFest 07! I NEEDED these cars fro the Fest collection! WOOOO HOOO! But wait theres more! (I'm begining to feel that Ron Popeel is typing this)
In the box is a Lightning Lane.com 65 Chevy (NOT CHOVY!) Nova Sweet car! Along the lines of JL there is a Mopar or No Car 1970 Plymouth Baracuda! and an Import Heat Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution...Do I see White rims...is that a white interior? A WL COOL!
And I saved the best for last! There is the absolutly coolest all white Maisto chopped bug. Now this is not a regular bug or even the chase bug....It is a German Toy Fair Car! The all white ride with the light greay Toy Fair 2006 tampo on top is priceless to me! Gerald this car will be with my collection until I pass it on to my diecast heirs! SWEET! I'm doing the dance today.


Hey there is something rattiling around in the bottom of the box......**Giggle** OTTO'S SCHOOL BUS! Sweet it's going to stay on my desk now! The Teacher has a bus!

















Oh annd I'm living up to my title of Secratery of Freedom in the WLLM and the Evolution is now breathing again!

Your welcome Chris, and for all to know, Chris was my inspiration for RAOK day. He is always giving and has such a positive attitude on the board.
