This one is WAY OFF-TOPIC but I need the help of fellow 914 owners, in order to make a dream come true for my best friend.
Being chosen as the Maid of Honor and helping in the wedding preparations we decided to sign, Mary and her fiance Minh, up for a radio "Dream wedding contest". Now the story is that we need people to help us vote for them and would be very grateful if you could all give us some support. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
Please click here and vote for Mary and Minh Please click here and vote for Mary and Minh Thank you sooooo much

The other admins might shoot me for this one but Mary and I have spent the last 10 years busting around in my 914 (This 914 "Little Guy" was the love of my life) and she had the greatest adoration for my car but was never able to get one for herself. Then the day came when we looked for wedding locations and I picked her up in the "new" 914. She had the hugest smile on her face belting into the 5-point harness and holding on for dear life as I busted through the hills to visit various wineries. Here we are today, Mary still has a passion for the 914s.
Now to their story, Mary and Minh...
The candlelight in the room whispered a new future. Minh presented a gift as I waited with anxiety. As Minh got on one knee and proposed, I was in a dream state of disbelief. Being together since high school, for ten years Minh swore he’d never wed. My body trembled and grabbed him to make sure the proposal was real. He chose a $13 ring and informed me we’d pick a real one out together. The following month we bought a house and my ring had to wait. Over a year later I don’t have a real ring but I have a home. We’re each other’s opposite and best friend. We have a true love that’s rare to find and what many people spend their whole lives searching for. Minh gave me a dream proposal; help us to have a dream wedding for the rare love we found.

Here is the flyer we are passing around San Jose and Morgan hill this weekend. I think it would be hilarious if we managed to help them win this contest.

Billybob, MikeZ's avatar's never offend me (well, maybe the exploding head just a little), but yours certainly does. After your last post, I'm thinking you might offend me too. sounds like something Alfred would say.

that billybob person's comment was a tad bit disheartening. Can't believe there are still people in this world that can make comments like that!
Now...KEEP ON VOTING!

I'm voting up a storm! Good luck to them!
They seem like a beautiful couple and I hope they win! (with the 914club behind them it should be great!)
I wish friends of mine would do something like that for me! Scott (Thacher) and I are getting married in October and the cost is already staggering!
You're a great friend!
Teri
p.s- they are up 38% to 32% for the next highest couple!
Keep voting!

Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, multiple votes make no difference, the tally (The one in the parenthisis) doesnt change with each vote you do. It onlyt akes the first one from that IP. The rest are just lost in cyberspace. However, if you are on a dialup, or have access to multiple networks or comuters at other locations, you could vote and make it count.
