What's the story on the comix? I might have a box or two to donate, have to check the parents garage. Each is bagged and boarded, no less...

I've got a lot of comics myself that I'm willing to dontate. I'm also going to visit some of the local shops in my area. They'll likely have some stuff they're willing to donate.

Pretty straight forward. We'll contact local children's hospitals and offer to donate the books to the youngsters. Comics are good, as they appeal to the older kids.

Thanks to Spiff, and others who have chimed on with the offer of more comics, It looks like the giving of the comics directly to the Children's Hospitals in one's own area will be the most effective approach.

As for the raffle - It will start Tuesday with Amie's approval. Yes, You can purchase up to 2 tickets. Don't ask me why 2 - It just seemed fair.

A small problem - I received a note from an attorney. It may actually not be legal for me to do this raffle here. Even though I am giving all funds to charity, apparently Pa. law considers this to be gambling. We may have to completely run this through Axiom, if possible.

Apologies for the snafu here - I had never thought of this potential problem.

I am going to check on this today, to make sure everything is legal. My wife, the attorney, thinks as long as ALL funds go to an accredited charity, like the 2nd harvest food bank, we will be fine.

I will have a final answer on that, as well as Amie's ok, tonight.

Great! Thank you wife for all of us!

I'm in.
Anything for Charity.

Craig-count me in. You've been PayPal'ed. Thanks for setting this up.

Ok guys, Everything is all set. As long as we use an accredited, non-profit certified charity, we are good to go.

For the first raffle, the charity will be the 2nd Harvest Food Bank.

The raffle kicks off at 6 PM, tonight, first come, first served.

The max is two tickets per person, @ $25 each.

And, to be fair to all, any e-mails sent before then will be deleted. This gives anyone who already sent an e-mail 5 hours to "get ready" ... Make sure if you have already sent an e-mail to re-send payment after 6 EDT today.

Thanks ! ...
