Danny Briggs/Danny Mabe

For once, I find myself in complete agreement with the Cowboy. We need to create some excitement and intrest. I believe we should have another auction. Each attendee woulod be required to bring one raffle item. A lot of times, places like Wal Mart, Home Depot, Lowes and Army/Navy places will donate. Some require letters and I would write one up and send tem out to all concerned. I would also like ideas for Reunion memetos. We can stick with the coins, I can get different types, IE,a coin with your rank on it and possibly the date of the reunion, or like we did this year but a different coin. Or for those who liked the baseball hat we raffled this year. It was unique and we can do something a little different so that hat is still one of a kind. I need ideas troops. In case you do not know it, Brigg's two favorite passtimes are eating and sleeping, so you can see it is going to be an up hill battle.

DANNY MABE UPDATE:

I spoke with Evelyn and Danny this afternoon. Evelyn tells me Danny is not doing well. He will eat just enough to get by and will virtually not drink anything at all. He is down to 170 lbs. For him that is not a lot of weight. I spoke to Danny at length and tlod him he had only two choices, eat and live or do not eat and die. I told him I did not want to have to go to Florida to his funeral. I will talk with Evelyn every three or four days and check up on him. If he is not doing better I will make like I was calling and chew his ass somemore.

It would do him a lot of good if you guys would email him and chew his ass. Tell him he has to get his shit together and get better. It does not make any difference how well you know him, he is one of us. Here is his email address. mabe1@tampabay.rr.com

Lets get behind this and do what we can as a unit.
