George W. Bush

I knew Shill Bid would jack the price up! :rollhappy:

 

[Heather]

Whew! Mark!!!
I hope this doesn't backfire on us all...

Can't fool me, I've been to a lot of auctions!

$50

George W. Bush

That would be absolutely disgusting. I thought we were supposed to be creative.

Rob, I hope you have the right to accept or reject bids.

 

[Mahon]

George W. Bush is in the lead...

 

[gore42]

I think that George W. would be fitting, as long as the first bloom is the model

No, not really.

My wife took a quick look at this contest and started spewing obscenities as the suggested name, mainly because she thinks it'd be funny to have Paph !@#$!@#^! !#@$!#@$!#$.

So in honor of that, I think it should be Paph Tourette Syndrome. I'll give you a dollar if you name it that.

Oh come on, it is clearly an attempt at biding up the auction....

I'm more concerned that somebody in the press would pick up the GWB name and think that I was attempting some sort of honor. My personal politics aside (I think he is doing about a good a job as any woody perennial could, with about the same level of creativity), it really isn't a 'presidential' flower.

I'll bid $51 for "Iraqi Freedom". Next!

Paph Foul Parish $65

Allright! back on track!

 

[littlefrog]

Fowl Parish, maybe? Or Fowl perish... *grin* that makes me hungry, actually.

 

[Heather]

Just bumping this up since we're getting near the closing date. Keep those bids a-comin'!

No Fair No Fowl

 

[Heather]

Rob, someone was asking me how many growths the plant has, and when exactly does the auction end?

 

[littlefrog]

I don't recall how many growths it has (I'm about 35 miles from the greenhouse to check..). More than one.

I think we will make this thing end at 9am tomorrow (EST). Get your last bids in. It all goes to the forum maintenance fund.
