IRI Fundraiser - Kiss the Pig contest

[Andy Baker]

I have these two bids from dependable friends who can't attend IRI:

$50 for Jane Young
$250 for Paul Copioli

It's good to see people step up.

I'm picking up the pig tomorrow in Monticello (my step-father's farm). It will be housed at a veterinarian's location on Thursday and Friday. Then, around lunchtime on Saturday, it will join the party at LNHS.

*sigh*... somehow it just doesn't seem fair that I get punished because of all of Steve's bad calls... that's crossing the line! I mean why am I getting punished because my collegue crossed a line (which I know he didn't intend to cross)? It just doesn't seem fair!

So, not being from the midwest, what does one wear to their first pig kissing? I mean, I wouldn't want to be disrespectful to the pig.

Pink. If you don't want to scare the pig with your human-ness, you wear pink. Curly tail and ears are optional.

It's not a Florida pig.

And the SPCA says the pig has to remain at least 100 feet from 1902 at all times (for obvious reasons).

It's so nice that a guy like Aidan who normally sees things in black and white, is going to think pink. There could be at least 233 people who will appreciate this effort.

My shirt is sort of salmon-y, wonder if that will confuse the little pig. It could be a bad call.

Gary, that might not be a bad idea, 1902 will teach Oscar to fly and we'll have a flying weiner, I mean, pig, on our hands. Wonder if Andy knows how to stop a flying pig.

Pigs don't need wings to fly...and to stop it...well...what goes up must come down...

As for the voting, I think it would be a nice (late) birthday present for Karthik if he won...

Poor Copioli... He got the Overdrive simulation $40. As well as whatever else people have sent to his bucket.

Poor Pig

I wouldn't be surprised if the pig demands a recount.

Quick!... any last minute pointers on pig holding (for a Yankee)?

(Praying this doesn't include catching the pig!)

[Rosiebotboss]

Yeah..........slather it with grease!
