OK boys and girls, the raffle has taken off into high gear somewhat, check
out the new listing of entries at :

http://www.mindspring.com/~vwbus/conlist.htm

and the rules for entry at:

http://www.mindspring.com/~vwbus/vwbus.htm

Damn near 100 entries now, though some have really bought big blocks to
increase their chances (thanks to all those people, and everyone else, it is
for a good cause), but I still swear you crazies from CA and the like better
be ready to come get this thing, and mind you I still make no promises on
how far it's going to get.

But now for a BIG thank you to Jim Thompson out at Old Volks Home who is
providing a $100+ (list price) S&S exhaust system for the van as a donation.
This is a real nice offer and is very much appreciated, hell in fact
probably adds about 1/4 to the value of the Bus 8-)

I've been in contact a few times with Charlie and will be getting the money
out to him early the week after the drawing.  Like he said he intends to pay
it back into a general list help fund after he gets a good job, a real good
notion.

Anyway still time to get an entry to me, but it has to arrive here by the
end of next week, so allow for US Postal System time, they aren't as fast as
the internet after all.
