thanks Mary....yes this jewel was laying on the ground in the rain just past the finish line on Monday AM. A suppose I could put it on E-bay but I think it looks pretty darned good in our office. Actually I think the sign was used on the podium where Hall, Ritz and Sell were presented as our 2008 Olympic team. --Previous Message-- : : : one man's trash is another man's treasure :

G, Not bad in the trash picking department, I'd say!! If I'd seen it I would have picked it up too,(except that I was riding the subway/bus/train back to Maine and it would've been alittle tough to get them on the mass transit come Monday AM). Now all you need is the matching set of the Women's Trials signs... (What are you willing to bid on E-Bay to get the other "half" of the set??? I'll keep my eyes peeled in Boston come spring..... ;-) David G. --Previous Message-- : thanks Mary....yes this jewel was laying on : the ground in the rain just past the finish : line on Monday AM.

talking about transportation fun. I was running when I picked the signs up at 67th street, ran up to Larrys new apt on 127th st with them tucked neatly under my arm. I passed a few runners and even a few cops who hardly gave me the time of day. Where else but NYC can you run with two 6 ft signs and nobody thinks it is even strange. These signs are not cardboard (heavy plastic) I doubt I'll put them on E-Bay but might sell myself on there as a professional garbage man --Previous Message-- : G, : Not bad in the trash picking department, I'd : say!!
