Anyone going to the Birch Run Gun Show on Aug 9-10? Great place to hand out flyers for the upcoming Appleseed. 8)

Yeah, but Fred sent me on a mission to go to Michigan and see if I can't stir up a little Appleseed Promotion at a local Gun Show! ;D We do have folks in MI right?

This is pitiful,  Bob 210 has to try to stir up Michigan.  And he is is California!!!!!!!  Bob has almost by himself awakened the sleeping giant( CA)  You can do it also in MI!!!!

"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value."   T Paine

   Bob, since you'll be in the area, how about a little stop in WI, just "to stir the pot a little"?

   I have a clown bat I can UPS you, if they won't let you take yours on the plane... ;D

   I've personally always being amazed at the "fresh spirit of cooperation" a flogging brings out in even the worst of people...

   Not to mention how it energizes people for Appleseed.

   Or how, later, they sincerely "thank you" for having the love it takes to "work the bat" on 'em...

I will volunteer to represent Appleseed at any gunshow in Mi when I'm in the state. Now I don't think I'll be back to Mi until mid-june. It's kind of sad to rip on your own state but it's been my experience that there are fery few people who know what they're about.

THANK YOU FOR GETTING OFF THE COUCH, JOHNIIM!!!  Let me know when you'll be back when you know for sure, and which shows you'd like to attend, and what you'll need from me, if anything, when you are there.  Now, where are the rest of the Michiganders?   I KNOW they are going to gun shows.

Also, is there any chance of another shoot at your location this year after you get back?

I'm thinking three weeks after my return to Mi ( range prep time) early-mid July? And for the record I left the couch on 4-19-2008.

Is your schedule firm enough for me to start the online stuff around the beginning of April for a mid July shoot?  If it isn't yet, shall I ask again it that time?
