Make PSILOCYBIN legal for TBI/PTSD/TRA&D
So, been working on separating parts into sell vs send to J for the final build.
For the first few+ years, I bought a lot of OEM parts, sometimes multiple of the same part(s), thinking I was going to do a full OEM restore. My build changed, quickly became a full restomod build, and my parts stash has silently sat waiting to be used=) It's a collection of New OEM, NOS OEM, New Other (eg, SOR, Man-A-Fre, etc.), Used OEM, Used other (ARB, Milford, etc.), and Custom Fab. The parts list is crazy long and I'm close to completing it down to the last nut & bolt (including pictures of every single mf'n part). Parts list will be finalized this weekend - currently at 2 full pages, single spaced individual entries.
Raffle?
As I was cataloging everything and getting ready to list them on eBay, had an idea that might benefit both the MUD community and me - a parts raffle. Initially thought of breaking it into sections (eg, mechanical, electrical, etc.) but to be honest, way too many moving pieces in my already hectic life. So, my thought is this:
One raffle to rule them all!
$50 per raffle ticket. 100 tickets minimum, 200 tickets maximum. If tickets sold =/> 150, free shipping. If tickets sold =/,125-149, winner splits shipping with me. If tickets sold =/<124-100, winner pays shipping. If tickets sold <100, raffle cancelled, tickets fully refunded. PayPal will be used and funds will not be touched until a winner is picked.
Raffle dynamics? Couple of scenarios to ponder. If the raffle proceeds after voting, here are the choices (the official drawing will be FB live-streamed):
1) Ping-pong ball race: Preface: I live on a river. I handprint each number on a single ping-pong ball x the number of raffle tickets sold. Starting point will be the river at the most NE part of the property. End point will be the first ping-pong ball to cross under the Lee Road bridge (20 mins by kayak). It's a clear water river, maybe 25 meters at the widest, slow to moderate current, plenty of obstacles, plenty of curves. How will it be live-streamed? I'll have the ping-pong balls in a large tub and will have a MUD member(s) empty the tub mid river. I'll kayak with the iPhone attached to my helmet, staying +/- 5-10 meters in front of the ping-pong balls until one crosses under the bridge. The MUD member(s) will be at the finish line to verify the winner as well.
2) Drawing at Trail-Tailor: Live-streamed. Traditional raffle ticket stubs. Stubs will be put in an appropriately sized container and thoroughly mixed. While live-streaming, J will pull one ticket, the winning ticket. Why J? Aside from being my builder, I consider J a friend and have the utmost respect for him & his family. J is also a well-known MUD vendor, trustworthy unbiased (not equal to un-opinionated, lol) and no nonsense.
Let the voting begin!
