I've had this idea in my head, and I bet you probably had a similar idea. Thanks to Don Moore for giving me the confidence to share this.
I think we should do something special for Scott aka Bossman aka Moncha while we are in Moab.
I was thinking of asking everyone who has signed up to be in charge of one letter. I was thinking if everyone bought a poster board and cut it into fouths. They would write one letter on a fourth of a poster board. They would be in charge of how simple or complex the lettering is.
I was thinking SCOTT * YOU'RE * THE * BEST! The askerick would be a picture of a flower. That would would take the place of a blank space. That is 22 letters (spaces). That's the amount of VXers going to Moab.
We could take a picture of our group with Scott's sign in front of some wonderful place in Moab. This way we have Scott with us in Moab, and it would make a great picture for Scott aka Bossman aka Moncha.
Letters would be asigned in alphabetical order. If you are the first person on the list you get the letter (S). If you are the 8th person in alphabetical order you draw a picture of (A FLOWER). If you are the last person, you draw (! ).
Ascinder - in charge of the letter (S).
bobmumgaard - in charge of the letter (C).
craiger34 - in charge of the letter (O).
CrnCnn - in charge of the letter (T).
Dumke - in charge of the letter (T).
Jay Dunford - in charge of the (*). This is a picture of face of a flower.
JoFotoz - in charge of the letter (Y).
Jolly Roger VXer - in charge of the letter (O).
Kenny - in charge of the letter (U).
Ldub - in charge of the letter (').
LEG 01VX - in charge of the letter (R).
MSHardeman - in charge of the letter (E).
nfpgasmask - in charge of the (*). This is a picture of face of a flower.
nocturnal VX - in charge of the letter (T).
orion - in charge of the letter (H).
pbkid - in charge of the letter (E).
Petos - in charge of the (*). This is a picture of face of a flower.
Scott Harness - in charge of the letter (B).
Todd Adams - in charge of the letter (E).
tomdietrying - in charge of the letter (S).
VXIRONwoMan - in charge of the letter (T).
Zues - in charge of the letter (!).
What do you think? Please confirm by Wednesday if you can do this. I think Scott would really appreciate it. What do ya say?
Peace.
Tom aka in charge of the letter (S).

I love the idea! One thing... why cut the poster board into fourths? I say make it BIG! Use a full one for each letter. Either way... I am in.

I know people will have A LOT of things to do to get ready for Moab. Cutting it into forths seems like it will be a bit easier on everyone's time. I would like 100% participation so this seems like a win / win for everyone.
Peace.

Great Idea!!!:dance:
While I think it would be nice to go BIG...the practicality of packing a quarter sheet of poster board, rather than a full sheet, appeals to me even more...:smilewink
You can put me down for a HELL YEAH...I'd be honored.:thumbup:

Count me in as well. Awesome idea... Now for the color... Pink or purple???? Only kidding.

Errr! I'm going to miss this too!:(
I had a very similar thought before being sidelined...I thought a group pic of everyone holding up a bottle, glass, can of the drink of their choice in a cheers fashion in front of all the VX's (at the pot luck) would have been a cool pic for him. :_beer: But your Idea is great also Tom.
Now everybody get on board!:thumbup:

Although I'm not sure what you are insinuating by assigning me a flower ;)

Tom,
You can count me and my "E" in. Should we do this on dayglow poster board, or is that up to the individual?
Great idea!!
tomdietrying
05/03/2008, 02:52 PM
Any color poster board you want will be fine. We'll just use a fourth of the poster board to put our letter on. I'm sure Scottie will appreciate the thought no matter the color.
Peace and Thanks for Participating!

Man, why did you assign me an exclamation mark... You know I go overboard all the time. I need at least 3 exclamation marks!!! Count me in! Maybe we could make up a special "Moncha's Moabers" card as well so we could all sign it, and send a framed version of the pic with the card as a care package?
Great idea!
I am in on all counts!!!

Just came back from WalMart with a few select items including (1) posterboard which is yellow on one side and red on the other..............I'm thinking yellow in honor of Scott's "Moncha" Proton VX :)
I'd be proud/honored to bring the "O" to Moab!

05/04/2008, 08:52 PM
I'm in. Tom, so, what exactly do I need to do for the face or flower...just a little confused there?
Otherwise, I'm down. So are we thinking just regular poster board with Sharpies to make these? Or are we thinking something more better like computer print outs or something?

Bart, any color of poster board will work. Markers and Sharpies will work great!
When I say the face of a flower, I just mean a circle in the middle with petals around it. Nothing fancy. I was just thinking it would be nice to put something in between the words instead of a blank piece of poster board.
Peace.

Grteat news! It appears we almost have 100% participation. Kenny is the only one who I haven't heard from. He coming from Canada so he might be on the road and doesn't even know. I will make Kenny's (U) for him. Ldub, if he comes by your place on the way to Moab will you let him know what we are doing?
Thanks. Looking forward to seeing everyone in Moab. Don't forget your letter!

:_thinking I know some of the letters are already done but as i was doing ours i thought instead of the * as a flower maybe a paw like Moncha's avatar would be sweet! I know its last minute but just a thought! I will have extra supplies in Moab if anyone needs any!!

THAT IS AWESOME!!! The VX family is the BEST!! Scott and I are already talking and planning for next year. It will be hard to beat the turnout that was there for 2008. But let's make that the goal for 2009. A year from now, I know that Scott will be salivating to get behind the wheel again. For now, poor Moncha is sitting in the garage. I had to put the battery charger on him because he is not getting driven now with Scott being home bound. Just looking at the pics posted so far, it looks like it was a fun time had by all. How can you have a bad time in Moab??? We will be there in 2009.
MSHardeman
05/21/2008, 08:53 AM
Laura,
If Moncha needs to get out of the garage and stretch his legs a bit I would be more than happy to take him out for a spin.:bwgr: Plus, it might do him (and Scott) some good to see another VX.
