Not a problem - he does have Alzheimer's so it's not all wonderful, but he's still kicking.

But thanks for bumping the thread - I need $25 to past the next person and $50 to get past the next one. I hope the Boneyard can get me to 7th (or better).

Did we pass #7?

It's a very cool number and if 10 people who didn't think they could give enough gave $19.99, that would be almost $200 and could be something like a lift to get handicapped people into a pool where they could exercise limbs they can't exercise on dry land. Every bit counts and beside the cool aspect of 19.99 which I assumed was a Prince tribute, when enough people do that, it makes a huge difference. Every dollar matters.

We've also seen $53.41 for the Butler score which was awesome. I haven't seen $60.54 for the 2014 championship yet - that would be cool. And I don't think we've seen $82.73 for the 2004, but even though it's less, I think $77.74 is generally better.

I just assumed 19.99 was the year of the first Ship. The alternative to 77-74.

People can still get in there with 20.04 20.11 and 20.14.

He called it a Princely sum so I assume Prince but 1999 works too - It seems a great amount for anyone who hasn't contributed! Or the others!
Hey if someone wants to donate $1999, I'd be good with that!
 
You're a good man and your brother is one hell of a fighter, this is what makes the boneyard great.
 
OK here's the deal - We are at 1655. We usually donate about 400 to 500. If we can get this to $2000, we will drop $750. If we get over 2,100 we'll give $1,000. Help me spend some money!

Completely correct on the first paragraph, and I'd have posted the second paragraph if you hadn't.

What I liked most about the donor page was that $200 was the original goal, and now the aim is for more than 10 times that.

The $200 is the default they setup for people who are walking. My wife and her father have been the people who raise money and it all goes into the Art pool. I had no idea what to expect so when I saw this amazing Boneyard effort getting close to $2,000 (I never expected anything like that), I decided to drop some extra money if the Boneyard could hit a $2000 goal. We're now up to about $1,825. Next year the name will be The Boneyard instead of my name because you guys are the bomb! Seriously, this has so surpassed my expectations and I'm so happy that my brother in laws center will bet able to get more supplies, better equipment or do some awesome field trip because of the Boneyard. It's almost impossible to understand how amazing it is what you all are doing for people who have been dealt a really crappy hand in life.
