    Morehouse and Rogers Sell for $20,000 Dollars at Auction!

    http://timmorehouse.wordpress.com/20...oys-town-gala/

    This was amazing! Jason and I offered to teach 5-10 kids to fence as an item to be auctioned off for the Boys Town charity and it brought in $20,000 Dollars! Phelps had an item that included swimming with him in the pool and it only sold for $10,000! How often do you beat Phelps? Crazy More importantly, it goes to a great charity to help a lot of of children!

    Enjoy the post! -Tim

    That's absolutely wonderful! And it will have effects that will last for those 5-10 kids as well as the good that the $20k will do.
    The spirit is willing, but the fleche is weak.

    Use the Shift key, people! Keyboard manufacturers everywhere are ineffably saddened when you ignore what they made just for you!

    Nice job! Its nice to see you guys turning your success into something that benifits so many. Nothing requires you to do that, it just speaks to the quality of your character.

    For some reason the caption I wrote on that last picture wouldn't come out and it would make that picture make more sense. The girl in the middle is Susan Yara who put together the gala and also invited us to attend.

    I'm almost disappointed this wasn't a " $20,000 for a date with Tim...AND Jason." BOGO, anyone?

    I can't believe Phelps didn't do as well at an auction. Brilliant idea.
    You ready, Annie Oakley?

    How often do you beat Phelps?
    How often have you fenced him? That's probably do it.
