BB2 - Fundraising
Get 'em while they are hot.
For Sale: 12 Ottawa Rotters Hats As per the photo, the hats are embroidered with a maple leaf with the word Canada beneath. On the wearer's right side panel are the words Ottawa Rotters CMP - the photo does not show it but that's what it reads. The left side panel may be embroidered with other info (my hat will say 1945 HUP). They are made of 65% Cotton (hand-picked by well-paid non-exploited happy people) and 35% free-range polyester. These rare hats (12 only available) are being sold at auction in support of the upcoming Bob's BBQ 2 event to be held in Hammond Ontario sometime in late August or early September (can't make up our minds, cuz other event planners haven't made up their minds...). Here is how the auction works: The minimum bid for each hat is $15.00 Canadian Dollars. One bidder = one hat (unless you are insanely rich and have a lot of dough to waste). Find a colour you like. Identify its number (1-12) and place a bid by replying to this thread. Shipping costs will be added if you are too busy/far away to visit us this summer. Bids will close 31 March 2007. Winning bidders will receive their hat(s) upon receipt of payment. So, bid away to support our fun summer event! Red Hat 1 Black Hat 2 Black Hat 3 Black Hat 4 Black Hat 5 Black Hat 6 Black Hat 7 Tan Hat 8 Tan Hat 9 Tan Hat 10 Tan Hat 11 Tan Hat 12

It is good until someone else trumps it - i.e. bids more than you initially bid. Are you suggesting a buy it now price?

Heinz 57.... Hardly
It is so much easier to make the hat match the hardware than the other way around that I'm going to buy the black hat, do the figuring out of what the truck really was (no data plates remain) and then make the hat nomenclature fit the vehicle nomenclature.
As an aside, since all the "good guys" used to be distinguished by white hats and any white hats put in the greasy rotter world would promptly become black, those of us with dark coloured hats are merely pre-empting the natural processes. Grant
