The timing was right when I showed up to check and look for some nice findings....... There it stood.... A stack of 6 Jimmy cassette tapes from the early days......... All in great condition, I drove home and put em' in the glove compartment of the boat where the stereo/radio is....... Nothing fancy, just a cassette deck/am/fm radio...... But no one complained this past summer when we put one in........

Talk about luck!

I go to thrift stores just for this purpose. I go through the LP's, CDs, and cassettes in hopes of finding Jimmy Music... so far just a bunch of Lee Greenwood and Barry Manilow

I've been out of the area for a month, so imagine my surprise when I go to buy groceries and find a new DOLLAR TREE has opened close to our Krogers!

Of course, I wanted to free more Mac, but we didn't find any.

But, I'll go back and dig deeper

OK, I've been sitting on this for DAYS and I can't STAND it anymore. The title of this thread is "FREE MAC!" right? Every time I read it, I think "I didn't know he was in jail!"

I always think someone is giving away free mac computers!

FYI - Beach Blonde's son, and Beach Blonde, can use all of the thoughts, prayers, and PHIN POWER we can send their way. He is currently recovering from injuries.

She didn't leave BN and the FREE MAC crusade because she stopped caring. Family comes first, and due to unfortunate circumstances, they need her more than we do, and it sounds like it will be a while before she has any time to visit us.

She is also sorry to say her surplus of Mac cd's is depleted. If you've sent her PM's, they probably won't be seen. We all owe her a debt of thanks for sharing her discovery at the Dollar Tree's, and I think she'll be proud of the efforts some of you guys have invested into the campaign. I do have an email address for her, and I'll send her the updates I see here.

Oh Tiki...thank you so much for the update.
I was wondering what happened to her.

Please send her my love and good thoughts next time you email for.
