Whew, Finally I won.  Jeff, that's a really cool addition to the forum and some good programming too.  Thank god I didn't need to use lifelines on the forestry questions because I don't know enough about TV and movies without some help. ;D

Tom

I finally reached the end of one of those trails too. Whew!!!!!!!! It's been a long time since I've used some of those brain cells.

Gordon

That was a another great idea Jeff. Nice work. Had a couple of pretty tough questions.

Thanks
Gordon

Jeff

I can't take credit for the programming, that is a freewarescript available on the web. The credits are in the source code! Thank Woodtick for most of the wood related questions.

I simply woods-a-fied it!

Old is good, Jeff.

I'm looking forward to it.... :D

Jeff

I am going to be the big 40 this summer. Takes some getting use to that thought. Funny thing, as you get older. You still think about the same things you did when you were younger, you just think about 'em different!

I find it hard to believe that I sent an email to every member of this forum about this contest, and only 3 of you have entered! Must be everybody is busy for Memorial Day weekend. I got an invite I can't turn down. My Sister called and asked me to go to the U.P. with them. My Wife is working at Graduation, so I am gone tomorrow night!

I will announce a winner for this Monday some time.

With only 3 entries I might throw out my selection software and just go eenie minie mo...

Tom

Your right, Jeff.

The mind stays young.

A young mind makes for an old body.
An old body needs a young mind or it will quit.

Old Mr. Miley, a rea-a-l old friend of the family and an avid church member......   who I worked with at the newspaper in the 1960's had a young mind.  

He was in his late 80's then and would run around the office hugging and kissing the girls, patting them on the bottom as they walked by, bringing them cokes, candy crackers and milkshakes unsolicited and said to me..."I couldn't get away with this when I was 20".


RavioliKid

Jeff,

I cannot believe how long it took me to get to a Million! I feel like a real melon-head!

However, I will never forget that Bulova Watches had the first TV commercial.

I'm not sure I'll ever watch "Millionaire" again. I sure won't go near "The Weakest Link". Now I know...

I AM the weakest link![/color]

Play it again Sam....er Ravioli, it makes you feel smart :D

Gordon

Lets see out goes y-o-u. Sometimes the old fashioned way works best. But for the people that did go all the way---congrats and as far as I'm concerned the fewer the better. That way I've got a better chance of winning.  8)

But it would be more fun to see more complete the challange!

Hey, don't feel bad.  It took me a while, and I knew all the forestry questions. :D
Never under estimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

Gordon

The forestry questions weren't that bad it was some of the others that really had me thinking. But the better half and her mother are great sources of  information.

I wonder if Jeff has one planned with almost all forestry questions. That would be great. The quizes he has setup on Timbuyers are really good to get you thinking as well.

Gordon

Jeff

And The winner of the May 23 contest is...

Way to go Tom!! Now you have to make a really big decision Hat?? Turkey Call?? it's an awful hard choice  :D :D
Bill

Gordon

Congrats Tom great job! Now comes the hard part turkey call or hat. :-/

Gordon

Tom

The Hat!    The Hat!   I want THE HAT !

Granddaddy showed me how to call a turkey with a tobacco pipe.

I have a hat collection that has been growing since 1980 and I can keep "THE HAT" there until I wear it.

Can't you see me now....sitting at my computer with "THE HAT" on? :D :D :D ;D

Tom


Today is a day to be recorded in the annals of history.  Tom got his hat.

After the rain today and after washing all the blue and red berry stains from my face, I went to the mail box one last time before supper.  There with my favorite publication, The Florida Market Bulletin, was a big bubble filled envelope from The Timberbuyers Network.  I new what it was, tore it open, rushed to the house to show my wife and to try it at the computer.

I think it makes me look half-way intelligent, don't you? ;D

Thanks Jeff

Tom

                          

Gordon

Tom it's a perfect fit. 8) I'm envious that you won the first new style hat.  ;) But fair is fair.  :'(

Just glad you didn't get blackberries all over it!
Congrats
Gordon

Ron Wenrich

I see that I'm not the only gray haired gent on this board.   :D    Nice pic.
