Jake, 
 
Do you want to run on a tread mill so that knitting machine will go flying
to make knitted bags for this???
 
The bags that were handed out at NFB Convention this year were large  brown
bags" and everyone that registered got one.  They get between  2,000 and
3,000  people that goes to NFB Convention.

Here is  one way out there. I wonder what the NFB pays for the carrying bags
they  use at national or in some cases state conventions.  Yes I know  they
get a lot donated.  But why couldn't we take the contract for  carrying bags
to make money for our division.  We could knit or loom  or crochet the bags
in yarn that does not stretch. Line them with plastic  canvus Terry can 
teach
us how to attach the yarn to secure the plastic  canvus.  We make them 
fairly
uniform at x times y.

Or we could  make them for conventions of trade groups or whatever, Lions
Clubs,  teachers union meetings etc. 

Transit companies always have gifts for  there drivers. Why couldn't they 
buy
the bags from us. Like the smaller  transit groups, or CTAA which is a
national trade group for small to medium  bus companies. They have their
conventions in May in different places in  the country. I have been to
several. 

Ok, true way out there, but  fun to dream. 

Becky somewhere over the rainbow, and Jake. See goilys  what I has to put up
with, arf. Wahts a dog to do. Love Jake

On the seventh day of fund raising, the fund raising elf  was out and busy
all day and not able to be at the fund raising computer to  send out the
message, bad elf. Sometimes it happens. So everyone that is  reading this
please think of an idea to include for this seventh day for  the bad AWOL 
elf
to hold up my bad behavior and I will be back posting on  the eight day,
cause I will need Two. One for 7 one for 8. We made it to 6  and I want to
keep it going to 12 so, the night is young and this elf is  old and tired 
and
holding you all thin thru the night for the next great  ide3a.
