Subject: Garage Sale reminder
This is a friendly reminder to you and yours that at the upcoming
conference in San Diego, we will be hosting the Third International
Marine Mammal Extravaganza: The Orderly Garage (sale) Opportunity
(TIMME: TO GO), a marine mammal-themed garage sale to benefit the
student travel fund. At an opportune moment (now), please raid your
colleagues' work space for those little trashy treasures (hint: the tops
of computer monitors tend to be especially rewarding). Anything vaguely
resembling a marine mammal is fair game. Don't give in to his or her
pleas ('I kinda like this' is just not acceptable) - it's for a worthy
cause after all. But hey, we're not picky - we'll also gladly take those
dusty marine mammal books off your hands. Or that old SLR camera that
became obsolete when your photoID project went digital. Bring them along
to San Diego (or give them to someone who's going) and drop them off at
the garage sale table: E10 & E11 in the exhibition area.
Once in San Diego be sure to include the garage sale in your holiday
shopping plans. Embellish your home and office with marine-mammal
accoutrements. Shower friends and family with luscious gifts (we won't
tell that you paid less than $5 for them!). Experience the thrill of the
silent auction. Re-gift, rebel, recycle!
Safe travels and happy trails!
The TIMME: TO GO Team
