Help me, please.

[Phobia]

I have a couple stress factors in my life that only you guys can help me with. I don't want to sound like a bitch, beg, nor play the guilt card. I'd rather keep it all rosey and positive - but that approach doesn't seem to be working for me right now.

1. ChiefsPlanet gear. We ordered what you guys said you wanted to buy. We have more than half of it left. If you voted to order ChiefsPlanet gear, please complete your order in the Planet store by paying and getting it shipped. If you didn't vote to buy ChiefsPlanet gear and you'd like some, feel free to order it now. The other people have had more than enough time to get their orders in.

2. 37 Forever tickets. I need some support here. We 37 Forever volunteers give our time and energy to make these events happen. If you don't support them, there will be no events and there will be no 37 Forever. I especially need locals to attend the Friday night Pony Express event. I know it's a ways off, but it's really not. So, please visit the Planet Store and order your tickets to the Friday and Saturday events.

[RedNFeisty]

I put down that I wanted a shirt and hat, things got tight around here, sorry. I will get them ordered hopefully this week or next.

[BigRedChief]

It might help to have a little more information about what is going on at the Pony Express other than sampling their wares.

[WisChief]

I picked up a cap and a shirt this weekend and let me tell you guys - the hats especially are really NICE. The red fitted ones are the type that have the stretch headband in them. Much more comfy than any other fitted caps I've ever had. And for $20 it's worth every penny.

[morphius]

I figured I would grab the hat from you next time I saw you, try to save the shipping. Just didn't think I would miss every gathering so far this summer.

I vouch for that also. The best Chiefs hat ever. Period. HOF induction to follow.

And, if I may tag along here...

Please consider being a contestant for the 37 Forever cook off contest for the Saturday event. You may read more about it here. (http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=121239)

As of now we only have 2 contestants and two judges that have volunteered - we need LOTS more for this to be a success.

The Saturday event will be a good time and for a good cause, but we need your help to make it really fly!

So please, consider getting involved!

Thanks.

Thanks for the opportunity to explain.

We're going to feed you dinner (catered Tex-Mex) at Pony Express and of course you'll be able to enjoy all their beverage offerings. Additionally, we'll have our standard auction which is always a big hit. Our event is informal, which means it's unlike other charity events you may have attended in the past. You're not in your chair listening to people speak all night. There will be a brief presentation of 37 Forever's accomplishments and plans for the coming year. There will be an accomplished speaker who will briefly entertain you. Hopefully there will be at least one former/current Chief to support the cause as well.

Yeah - thanks for that. It's not a current stress factor for me because I found a couple of suckers to take responsibility. I still can't believe they fell for my pitch. Please help the Lyon brothers on the cookoff.

[Dr. Johnny Fever]

I think I actually ended up ordering more than I even voted to order. Come on bitches!

Everything is quality btw Phob.... thanks.

[wolfpack0735]

i`m putting a son through collage,just married one off,and two more girls close to collage. i made a donation to the plant(as much as i could afford) and have bought 4 shirts. if i can afford this on my $hitty salary others can two. please help out.

[Rain Man]

I don't think I was originally down as a clothes orderer, but I'm intending to buy a t-shirt or something. It's just not top of mind.

Enjoy all their beverage offerings? What does this mean? Free beer all night? Or a cash bar?

Informal? Does that mean the women flash us their bits?

[Phobia]

That means free beer all night.

You'll have to run the other question by the women in attendance.

[Iowanian]

I'll mention that I do what I can, when I can.

Its highly likely that I'll not be able to attend the weekend functions, but more likely the gameday activities. Others, like me, can chose to support what they can, even if they can't attend.

[ptlyon]

Yeah - thanks for that. It's not a current stress factor for me because I found a couple of suckers to take responsibility. I still can't believe they fell for my pitch. Please help the Lyon brothers on the cookoff.

We aren't stessing about the cook-off - yet.

But we need more participation otherwise we will have to look for other options as far as food for Saturday.

Phil came up with the idea for the cook off as there quite a few posters here that are very proud of their smoking/BBQ.

One would imagine there would be plenty of interest of being touted as the King of Chiefsplanet BBQ.

So all of you who are planning on attending the Saturday event and are real proud of your 'Q - please consider signing up!

[Iowanian]

I know I'd like to dominate the field with my beer can-apple stuffed-honey opposum...but there is an opening for someone else to win this year.

I'm sorry guys. The cookoff was the LAST thing I was worried about. I figured all the guys would be all over that deal. I'm guessing they're intimidated by all the great stuff I smoke - you know since I've been smoking food for so long and everything. I may need to withdraw my 6 months of experience.

That means free beer all night.

As a volunteer for 37 Forever I'd like to chime in as well by reminding everyone how good of a cause 37 Forever is.Personally,we've had two more kids that have drowned in this area in the last year.

I appreciate the fact that money is tight and remember the wife and I are opening our place up on that weekend if you need a place to stay at no charge.We have camping and or gameroom space available so you don't have to worry about hotel costs.

Lastly,if you haven't seen the recent pics I posted on our swim lessons in the pictures forum please take a minute to look,those kids are the reason we volunteer our time.

[ptlyon]

I'm sorry guys. The cookoff was the LAST thing I was worried about.

No need to be sorry - it should not be your concern - yet.

As I say, if we do not get more participation then we will have to probably go with having something catered. Then it will be Phil's responsibility.

And you guys don't want Phil to have a nervous breakdown, do ya? :p

If people don't start getting involved, I will have a major rant in the cook off thread, and you don't want that to happen.

And then my bro will start to b@tch - he's good at that.

So c'mon people - let's get involved!

[Mr. Laz]

i'll be ordering another shirt pretty soon ... someone liked the last one so much that i ended up giving it away. :)

[Dr. Johnny Fever]

all the great stuff I smoke
I knew it.

[Mr. Kotter]

Phil,

Can you bring some of the unsold items to Joe's on Saturday of 37Forever weekend? I know I'd buy a thing of two in addition to what I already have. I'd be surprised if others wouldn't do the same. Otherwise, I can visit the store again too.

Thanks for all you do.



Note to CP Members and Chief fans lucky enough to live in KC:
Last year was my first 37Forever involvement; it's a great group of people and a worthy cause ..... and the banquet is a good time. It would be even better, if a few of you lazy butts would get off your lazy boys and come hang out with some of the fine folks here.

You get to meet, mix, and mingle with some folks you've gotten to know from this zany place--and you quickly realize what a great place this is. Yes, for some of you, up until now, it's been "on-line" interaction....but these people are among the most genuinely nice, funny, cool people I've met. They are NOT the computer-whiz shy-types who some might imagine them to be....*cough* Clint *cough* Hell, even if Duhnise and TJ showed up, I'd be willing to bet I'd be sharing a brew with them and would get along just fine with them, in person anyway...heh. :p

The $$ is for a very good cause...includes food and entertainment, and it's for less than many of us would typically spend on a Friday night anyway. I'm not trying to twist anyone's arm, I'm just trying to give a first hand account of someone who wasn't so sure last year. If for whatever reason, you might be feel weird about showing up someplace and meeting people you've never "met" in real life, GET OVER IT! I'm an extrovert-type person by nature, so I wondered about meeting what I perceived to be more of an introverted crowd....suffice it to say, these folks are a lot of fun.

Do yourself a favor, and plan to attend Friday night as a "warm-up" to Saturday at Joe's. And, FTR....if you are not planning to attend Joe's on Saturday of that weekend--boy, are you missing out, IMHO. :D

[Phobia]

I knew it.

Heh heh.

If I still toked, I wouldn't be worried about it. I'd be, like "dude, I hope nobody else orders tickets for that brewery event, more food for us".

[Dr. Johnny Fever]

Heh heh.

If I still toked, I wouldn't be worried about it. I'd be, like "dude, I hope nobody else orders tickets for that brewery event, more food for us".

Sure, no problem. Thanks for the first hand account of your experience.

I think that we give an impression that we have 37 Forever all under control. Everything is taken care of and nobody has to worry about anything. Not so. We're winging it up until the last moment every year.

If you can't afford to attend the events, there's certainly something you can do to earn tickets. If you'd like to come and can't afford it, I can give you a letter to solicite auction items. If the SRP of your auction item(s) adds up to $100, you've just earned a ticket. If you sell 10 tickets to any event, I'm going to give you a ticket.

There are other volunteer opportunities available as well.

[Mr. Kotter]

Awwwwww... I love you too...


:D

Yeah, I gotta admit....you and ENDelt--I didn't know what to expect. But I survived the experience. Heh. ;)

Damn, that was a long way to get there....but, now that I'm there, I understand. :hmmm:

Now where is that wife of yours....:hmmm:

[Phobia]

I'm not asking for explanations from everybody. Everybody has stuff in their life. I'd like this community, especially the locals to make their best effort to help support the events. The charity benefits this community and those communities who have opened their own chapters. There's no sense in 90% out of towners carrying the bill. There's a handful of people who fly in or drive in from hundreds of miles away and they open their checkbook every year for 37 Forever. It's disappointing to look around and see the out of town guys vastly outnumber the locals.

At our 3rd annual event the only locals at our banquet were my parents and the Dartgod family. I'd like to see the locals do better than that this year. Quite frankly, if I can't get 100 KC area residents to care enough about 37 Forever to drop $50 then I don't care either. Take that however you want.

[BigRedChief]

Warm receptions are easier in person. The lack of accountability on the net allows some to say and do stupid stuff on occaision--but usually it's not a pattern of behavior (no, I'm not saying you have.) I've been guilty. Usually though, most of us can rebound....some of us even apologize....and move on. It has to be a two way street though.

You could be right, blame it on me, for not caring enough to make the effort...since I am so far away.

But I feel bad about Phob's 37 forever club....if I read it right, only a handful of posters from the Kc area showed up last year? If I was in Kc or closer, you couldn't keep me away. I can't really believe that. How many posters on here actually live in Mo? Does anybody know?

FTR, I wasn't "blaming" you, at all.

I agree, and I really admire what the organization and group has done. It is, indeed, too bad more local KC people aren't involved. That really does need to change, if it's to make a go of it.

[Nzoner]

I think most who know me know I love a good party and love hosting one as well,however,I'd like to reiterate my earlier post.As much as these events are surrounded by a party atmosphere let's take a moment to reflect on why we do it.

Joe Delaney gave his all and all were asking is for a little time and money so that the foundation can continue to keep his memory alive by offering swim scholarships to underpriviledged kids.

Besides where in the world can you get 3 meals and all you can drink for $87 which includes a live band and some damn fine company if I say so myself.

Again,not to sound holier than though but I've only been involved in this for right at a year and it's amazing how much local support I'm getting in the St.Joe area.

Lastly,if we call Chiefs Planet our internet home I think we should do whatever we can to get behind its charity.If that means sending 5 bucks so be it.Phil has laid out ways you can even get free tickets and we have free places to sleep but bottom line just like what Joe Delaney did it's going to take some sort of sacrifice.

Thanks for allowing me to ramble and I hope to see you 37 Forever Weekend.

[KC Dan]

& you can not beat this kind of entertainment:
Endelt drinking and the during and after effects
Fraz and his ranting
Screen doors flying
Montana beating the Donks on tape
Watching some of pretend we know how to play poker
Tammie being crazy, well quitely....
and much, much more

It is a great time!!!!

[Nzoner]

Screen doors flying


Sorry,we had to scratch that from the entertainment line-up this year. :D

[Phobia]

You can watch Lzen and Phobia playing catch, too. According to those people on the deck, there was a lot of entertainment value there.

[Phobia]

That's catch with a football, pervs.

[morphius]

Sorry,we had to scratch that from the entertainment line-up this year. :D
Shouldn't that be "Scrn door's flying" since the e's will probably all be in hiding.

The funny thing is that it was mostly your wife making fun of you.

With beer me on the prowl I'm still debating on whether to take down all hanging objects and letters.

(an unsolicited testimonial)

Folks,

I had a good enough time at the get-together last year that I'm flying back in to KC to do it again this year and hope to make it an every year event.

Phobia, can I get a confirmation on my banquet tickets?

Plus, the ChiefsPlanet gear is cool. Wore mine out tonight to annoy the local Ravens fans. ;)

[JOhn]

I'll try and set a little aside this payday. Didn't order any to begin with, but from the looks seems to be very high quality gear. :thumb:

Your payment has been received. Your name is on the list. In the interest of saving a few bucks, this is a ticketless banquet. You'll be granted entry when your limo drops you at the door.

[Saulbadguy]

I can't wait. I have had fun at the other Chiefsplanet member gatherings i've been to, so this shouldn't be any different.

[Archie F. Swin]

I bought a hat

it better look better than this:

Braincase claims he plucked that lid from the seat of your truck moments before the pic was taken. Poor Derrick!

[Coach]

Will send a check to you soon for the Red XL cap, and a grey XXL Shirt Phil.

Things just got a little tight around here, as my money had to go towards other things, such as tire repair for the riding mower, etc.

[mlyonsd]

Still soliciting for people interested in entering the cook-off at Nzoners Saturday.....

37 Forever is buying whatever you'd like to offer up as an entree. PM myself or ptlyon for more information.

Maybe his grape is a lot smaller then your grape.

Nothing against DA, from everything I have heard he is a great guy, but its hard to make that boy look pretty.

Still could happen if we get enough volunteers and still need a couple more cookers.

We're traveling about 300 miles and I'd have to bring homeade rub, sauce, smoker and grill. All he'd need is a propane torch, bottle of ketchup, tootpicks and dental floss. I think we could get all that in the truck.

[Nzoner]

We're traveling about 300 miles

Did you guys decide on a hotel yet or are you going to crash here?

[OldTownChief]

I plan on ordering some Planet gear before the 37 forever weekend. I also expect some/all of my group of 9 coming to the game will hand you some donations to go along with mine.

I appreciate you saying that.

Here's my real issue.

The cost of the brewery banquet facility is the same to us whether we bring 50 or 120. So, everything over 50 is a bonus to us. If we can't get 100 people out to Friday's banquet, I've failed as a leader.

you can't control what people do or don't do...

you can never regard yourself as a failure when it comes to 37 forever...

you help found it and you give so much time and energy to it...

without you, not one kid would be learning to swim...

you just have to accept that you do what you can and that's all you can do...

[Phobia]

Has attendance at a banquet ever reached 100?

No, but we've never had an open bar for 4 hours either.

[Phobia]

you just have to accept that you do what you can and that's all you can do...

Don't get me wrong. I'm proud of what we've accomplished. We've established our legitimacy and credibility within multiple communities. I've had something to do with that. We've gotten the thing off the ground and been dilligent. But I haven't been able to take it to the next step. As amateurs, we've done an amazing job. But 37 Forever needs somebody with fundraising skills at this juncture. Somebody to take the Foundation to the next level. Without funding, guidance, or a large break, I can't possibly do that because I have my own ventures that put food on the table.

[Nzoner]

Phil,I just finished the hand draft of the flyer should have the typeset one to you sometime tomorrow.

[dirk digler]

Phil I will do my part and me and the woman will be at the event Friday and Saturday and possibly at the game on Sunday.
Also like Kotter has suggested if you have extra gear you could bring it to the events and I would definitely buy some more. I should have gotten XL shirts my little baby sure sticks out.
I can't wait to meet you guys and gals and I will buy my tickets after the first of the month.

Thanks for stepping up, brutha. We'll definitely have Planet gear at all Planet related events until the stuff is sold out. FWIW, I had to upgrade to an XL, too.

If you need game tickets, let me know ASAP. Our game tickets are sold out, but I may be able to get some stragglers in the stadium on a case by case basis.

[onescrewleftuntwisted]

if i get moved down to k.c. yall gonna see alot of me

[Bowser]

Apologies, Phil, for being a slug to get around to get the cash to you. I know I have a hat bookmarked, plus the party and banquet. Payment is on the way.

Someone earlier (Kotter?) suggested bringing extra gear for the auction. I think this is a very good idea, and would probably do some Christmas shopping if this were to happen.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

I used to run 7 3/4-7 7/8....it fits me fine.


Really? I have a 34 pound head also, and didn't think it would fit. I did vote that I'd buy it though, so I will honor that. Happily even :) Maybe Joe Seahawk will recognize me out there in the great big northwest ;)

Then I guess we'll recognize each other. I will place my order on Friday evening when I have more money in my account.

If nothing else, it would look good in your Chief's shrine--get some autographs or somethin'? It might still fit you though.....it's stretchy and comfy for me. Room to grow, even.

[digi2fish]

I'd like this community, especially the locals to make their best effort to help support the events.

I'm a local of this community. ROFL
I enjoy my CP gears very much.

I'm glad. I actually just bought a couple of those stretch flex hats and one fits and the other one pinces the shit out of my forehead where the bill comes down. I'd like the hat regardless, just happy it may actually fit my head. Thanks for the "heads" up............ba duh duh. :)

[KcMizzou]

I put down that I wanted a shirt and hat, things got tight around here, sorry. Same here... with the fire and all.

Get this. We moved to a town house in Parkville. Had been there less than six weeks. Well... it was struck by lightning and burnt Friday morning. I must not be livin' right. Here's a link to the story.

http://www.kctv5.com/Global/story.asp?S=3741542

We were the luckiest of the people who have to move. No water, or fire damage... just smoke.. that and they chopped the ceilings out in the 3rd floor. (so fiberglass insulation got all over everything.)

Everything's fine, it's just a huge pain in the ass. I just cant believe the luck. 2 fires in less then 2 months? WTF???

I want my shirt and hat though... they look sweet. I'll send in my order when I go back to work Saturday.

you know what, the problem is I can't find someone to take the picture for me, I walk by a view of Taipei Financial Center everyday on the way to my office, and I have my t-shirt and hat in my pack....

this morning I was trying to take a shot with the hat on but failed with the light problem, I'll try it these days.

ChiefsPlanet is all over the planet, yeh.

Holy smokes. I think Brandon wins the official "Shittiest Luck on ChiefsPlanet" award.

No shit, that would really start to freak me out. That's my biggest fear is that our place would catch on fire in the middle of the night, and I wouldn't be able to get all the kids, my wife or mom all to safety

Too bad I'm not going to the World Kendo Championships in 2006 (as an observer, not a player). They're being held in Taipei then. It'd been great to get to meet you, digi2fish. Then we could have had two people walking round town in ChiefsPlanet gear.

[Bob Dole]

Sorry,we had to scratch that from the entertainment line-up this year. :D

WHAT?

Please tell Bob Dole that ExtremelyAccidentProneChief didn't indicate he's not going to make it this year. He's at least 1.4% of the reason Bob Dole makes the drive up from Texas.

[mlyonsd]

Did you guys decide on a hotel yet or are you going to crash here?

We've got a hotel in St. Joe somewhere, Pat took care of the arrangements. There are 4 of us coming down after work Friday so we'll be looking to find the party wherever it is.

Thanks for the offer.

Well, no chance I can make it for any 37 forever stuff, or even tailgating, I just don't have the money to take the trip and my next trip is already planned and paid for to go somewhere else.

I can't wait to be able to afford to go up there thought.

I am going to complete my t-shirt/hat order this Friday or Monday, after payday.

Hmm, seems like I looked at the gear last week and all that was left was the women's shirt and one or two other things. I guess I'll have to go back over there and look. Just got back from vacation and I'm broke right now, though. Will try to order something on Friday. ;)

That's not the case at all. Did you gain this impression due to the layout of the gear thread or was it dumbassery on your part? My point is, if we need to make layout changes to prevent someone else from getting that impression, that's what we'll do.
