    Well, how about we get a bigger auction going? If I knew how to run one, I have the time to monitor it.

    I could find some "stuff" reloading related I could donate. I've seen it happen here before. I would donate the shipping to the auction winner when the donation is sent to Duke. Others may want the winner to pick up the shipping.

    Or I could make some boolits, I have 4 MP molds from group buys I could make some boolits, place them in the auction.

    You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion."

    I asked Ajax how to do an auction in a PM. He said just do it!

    I say, make a pile of reloading goods, boolits, or whatever you have to offer, and have an auction.

    I know Duke would appreciate it!

    Thanks to all who bid or helped in any other way. I know Duke appreciates it.

    I am re-opening this benefit. Duke was suppose to be moved to Florida by noe, so he sold all of his snow gear. I am reopening this to help him offset his heating costs. If you would like to do a benefit auction you are more than welcome to do so.

    Just an update on my situation.

    Starting chemo therapy next week. Three drugs, two of them oral pills, and one butt injection. Two times a week, and then one week off. Three weeks is a cycle, and it's 12 cycles. That's 36 weeks. Chemo will be done here in Maine, but visited Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston (for consultation because the version of multiple myeloma that I have is the most rare type ... iGd..) on Wednesday. Fuel for that trip was $50, so the donations really help.

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I hope that I can personally thank everyone of you some day. The prayers, love, and support from fellow shooters is nothing short of amazing. God Bless you all.
