The Mussel Man Challenge - TODAY! (101 Mussels!!!!!!!!!)
self | 02/07/03 | dware

Posted on 02/08/2003 7:04:58 AM PST by dware

Yep, it's TODAY! Later this afternoon, I will be making my promised trip down to the local Chinese restaurant, and will attempt to eat 100 or more mussels. Why? To raise money for Free Republic, of course!

You can still help, too. Here's how. So far, dozens of FReepers have pledged to donate a set amount to FR for every mussel I eat. Some have pledged .10 cents a mussel, some .25 cents, $1.00, and more. What can you pledge?

To date, I believe we have a total of $16.05/mussel. If I reach my goal today of 100 mussels, that means $1605.00 will have been raised for FR.

I will be carrying out my duties at 1PM, MST. FReepers in Colorado are welcome to join us at the Grand China Restaurant at 28 1/2 Road & North Avenue (behind AutoZone) in Grand Junction. When it is all said & done, I will post results, along with pics, on another thread.

So, take the time now to get your last minute pledges in. Just post your reply below with the amount you pledge. If you don't want to post here, FReepmail me, and I will include your pledge.

That's it folks. I'm off to get my day started. Here's to hoping I get a good batch of mussels!

pssssst. i couldn't find anyone awake, so i left the bear in the front of your garage in a bag. (nice, clean garage, by the way.)

he's got quite a hangover and smells pretty bad, but he's still healthy enough that you can collect the full ransom.

p.s. the ford van we used at the begining of the operation wasn't yours was it? we had to burn it.

glock you are in more trouble then you thought. Snuggles was born on October 12, 1982. Meaning that he is only 20.

I think the legal age drinking age is 21.

Man....I THOUGHT I smelled something burning last night!

Why'd you have to burn the bear van?

Let me make the rounds at all the zoos and see if I can come up with a look-alike.

I warned you! If Snuggles doesn't show up soon you will be wearing this

And talking in a high squeaky voice about fabric softener.
