I have seen this one talked about on here. Does anyone have a flyer made up about it? I have a potential "hit" on a fundraiser and I would like to send them something on doing it this way. I have something for a traditional one.

When I typed that I thought about it but could not think of another way to word it.

I am shocked KG hasn't commented on it yet.
 
I'm picturing Cheech and Chong doing a PC fundraiser and just looking at tools confusedly. :)

OMG! I hated that show! And you brought bakc too many merories of my ex-fiance who use to watch it all of the time! and before you ask, he did not smoke pot! or at least not the I knew of!
 
I must confess, I've never actually watched it myself. My comment was based on what I've heard, and the little bits I've seen (comercials on Conedy Central for their movies, guest appearances on South Park, etc.)
Sorry if I brought back some memories you'd rather have forgotten.
