When I see folks who do Elvis #hows bidding, I know its my time to step aside!

However, I have been inspired to contribute somehow, so rather than run up the bid, I will value-add, and just donated Ulysses Grant to the AGF with the PP link. Please consider this in effect adding to the final auction price by 50.

Thank you to bigfly, Kerbie, and other mods!

I share this in hopes someone will one-up me!

Love the creativity, woodbox! Hope we'll see it in the Show and Tell section soon. Thank you!

Dnf777... thank you very much for your generosity! We appreciate the donation. Helps us keep the lights on.

Current bid is $195. Can anyone carry us to $245 to jump us by the amount of dnf777's donation? Come on, gang!

It's the Elvis mic! Don't we have other Elvis impersonators? You gotta have this mic for your show. You'll instantly be twice as cool just by singing into this mic!

Of course, it helps if you can stand on your tiptoes.

En pointe... that's what it's called. I know we can all do that.

Huh, so I have been outbid again,
I already bought the pink coat,
the only thing left is to say chaching,
And let $225.00 go and let her float!

How 'bout that? September 2, 1945, on the deck of the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay with Gen. Douglas MacArthur... mic on the left.

Don't forget... everybody can bid... registered users, charter members, sponsors, admins and even those crazy moderators. Newbies, oldies... it doesn't matter.

$225 is the bid! I know we can do better than that.

Four and a half hours left.
