I have the honor and pleasure of thanking the following folks for donating their
dollar to "One Buck Weir" and his race for governor. For those of you who don't follow California politics, I got 2500 votes and came in 30th in a field of 135. Jack and Jayna, our Native American friends from Dallas (A Sacagawea gold dollar). They are our "sleazy out-of-state contributors" who want their own Indian Gaming Casino license when I win {;-) Stella from Woodbury Russell and Jen from Richardson Graham from Bradenton Rich from Gig Harbor Paul and Margene from Blaine Greg from Saint James John from Salem Ross from Sherman Wood from Friendswood Turner from Mojave Del from Anchorage Barry from Sacramento Ralph and Helene from Culver City Williams from Livermore George and ??? from Greenville Kevin from Spencer George from Middletown I specifically did not list "nicks" or full names on the chance that some folks wouldn't want to have it known that they were involved in a political race. Again, the lot of us may not have won, but we certainly didn't lose. Running a clean campaign and preaching the general aviation gospel at each opportunity certainly was a "win" for all of us. Thanks again. Jim Jim Weir (A&P/IA, CFI, & other good alphabet soup) VP Eng RST Pres. Cyberchapter EAA Tech. Counselor http://www.rst-engr.com |

Stella from Woodbury - Hmm, wonder who this might be? :-) My eyes are watering right now, I'm laughing so hard. Must be all that Thanksgiving beer + turkey + beer + stuffing + beer + Packers loss + more "celebratory" beer + did I mention the Packers lost ...to Detroit!! Jim - It was fun on this end, following your campaign, seeing your photo in Newsweek, your name on a ballot on the CBS Evening News, reading about you on the Governor's Race web links, etc. Thank *you* for involving us in your once in a lifetime adventure. -- Montblack (ANE) http://lumma.de/mt/archives/bart.gif |

No, but if you will tell me what format you sent it (paypal, mail, etc.) I'll
certainly take another look...sorry about that.

They tell you not to mail cash. I was just hoping I'd get a buck's worth of access, and it was after all my first cash contribution to any political campaign, ever. What was really satisfying was pulling that lever, and convincing my wife to vote for you too. |

Craig from Mountain View is hereby added to the list.
It is entirely possible, in the first week after the nominations opened, that my "system" for filing donations wasn't quite as well organized as the next two months. Your buck was appreciated. Your votes were priceless.
