Is it just me or....?
Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, May 5, 2004 9:56 PM
....wasn't there a monthly MRC drawing where one modeler would win a bunch of models when their name was drawn? I recall seeing the promo for this when you accessed the FSM website homepage. Right? Wonder what happened? They got tired of giving away their models for free? I sure don't recall seeing it this month? How about you all? Wasn't it supposed to last twelve months?

I keep entering and hoping...maybe they'll take pity on a poor Marine far from home????
A day in the Corps is like a day on the farm; every meal is a banquet, every paycheck a fortune, every formation a parade... The Marine Corps is a department of the Navy? Yeah...The Men's Department.

You guys are lucky, at least you have a chance. I live in Quebec, and we're not allowed to win.

I've always wondered why people from Quebec, and certain places in states are always excluded from these kinds of contests..?

Because in order to run a publicity type contest like this one, the company that's running it has to register with the provincial government, pay duties, and follow our apparently very strict laws. For most, its not worth the effort or expense.

More hockey would be nice, but its spring in Montreal. The leaves are getting greener, the temperature is getting warmer, and the skirts are getting shorter.Big Smile [:D]

Yeah, can you believe it? The last drawing when they called out the name, the guy stared at the paper, then read, "Ron Poniatow..... berg!"

Darn, that was close! I even had my list of 'wants' ready.
