http://www.getjustintoafrica.com/

Oh Ya! Tell All Of Your Friends, and Post it around for me as Well. THANKS!

Shes going to be there for 3 months

I have a contribution for your FAQ section:

You can't live without your girlfriend for 3 months? Get married already, for goodness sake.

Yeah, she'll probably dump you later anyway.

"See, while I was in Africa there was this guy, and we... uhh..."

Justin... What's she doing there, why did she go? Is she running away from you?

(Might be a useful FAQ entry...)

haha ya, shes running away. Its in the letter, but she is there for 3 months to study abroad. She is a french major.

but she is there for 3 months to study abroad. She is a french major.

Whoa, the story gets even more interesting! What broad is she studying? *French* major? She's not switching teams, is she?

So this like that site where the girl wanted plastic surgery?

haha questions will be FAQ'ed

Whoa, the story gets even more interesting! What broad is she studying? *French* major? She's not switching teams, is she?

Well lets hope not, but if so as long as im still on the team its all good!

My question would have to be...
"What is a Grilfriend", from the website title.
Can they be had a Sears or Home Depot?

Yeah, I was just about to ask that.

How long have you known her?

Well, we went to High School together. But as it would ahve it we did not talk all the much or hang out, We Graduated together in 2001. After that we started to talk more, at which time i had a differnt girlfriend that was kinda of shaky. Well the other girlfriend left me for another guy (whine, whine) and well I started to talk to Frances alot more around April of this year, and thats when it started to get mroe serious and well here it is september. So technically I have known her for 6 years but really known her for 6 months.

Okay, Justin. I just sent that link to Blue. If he posts it, you're going to Africa.

blue?

im assuming he means bluesnews. HAH see this is why i love you guys :-)

You DO have your passport already, right?

yes i already have a passport I thought about that.

If you do end up going you'll be expected to keep a blog and take pictures.

Yup already planned on posting a daily journal with pictures on the web.

To increase donations, I recommend getting a piece of gallery software working in the "Reunion Journal" section and putting a couple of current pictures of the two of you in there. Then promising everyone that you'll post all the pictures there of your reunion.

Getting gallery software working sometimes takes effort, so if you're going to do pictures, it's worth it to get the gallery software going now, before it becomes a time-crunch thing.

Oh, and, um... Spell check your pages, eh?

Also, under the "CHECK OUT WHAT MY WEBSITE HAS TO OFFER:" section, make those all links. I think it would be more convienent.

Good luck,
Tim

Thank you to the board to a huge response to this. I ahve taken all of your suggest and most of the questions into the FAQ. The site is really starting to boom now.

[Oh, and, um... Spell check your pages, eh?

Oh, I don't know. All the typos just help show how shook up Justin is!

At least you have a woman! Ok then I'll try too

I don't look like that so I guess I can't help you out, sorry

Are you sure?? Oh well nevermind

Woohoo! £1 !! Just £5999 more to reach eternal happiness!

Thanks Paul!

You're welcome! I somehow do not think getting that car will get you that girl...

To get a girl like that you will probably need more than just that car to get her to look your way.......

You've not seen what I look like - I'll need a lot more than a car for her to look at me

LOL. Good luck to you then.

True, but its the best car I can get while keeping my insurance low!

haha, well i would donate, but im in a situation myself Well i just made this for more publicity to the site.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2954402805

Everything sells on ebay.

Ok, you have a bid!

Edit: ok, I've been outbid now... that all my funds from my appeal gone! LOL

hah post it everyone, it woudl be fun to make it one of those stupid auctions everyone links around the net.

Sorry, had to do it!

Fine... I'll just slowly bump up the price!

Everything sells on eBay? Not my motors

lol bummer, you just need to get people to post it around. let the auction wars begin!

I've now added a no thrills status indicator!

All I need is $1 from 3,000 people or
$2 from 1,500 people or
$5 from 500 people or
1 Really nice person to buy me a ticket

Hrm...
1*3000 = $3000
2*1500 = $3000
and
5*500 = $2500

Did I miss something? ;-)

-Greg

LOL, opps i did the orginal calulations on $2500 so i just was oblvious to it.

you saw nothing

Saw what?

-Greg

These are not the droids you're looking for...

Yes, £2 !!

I feel just like Homer

Support MY cause !

I'll get my total yet!!

OK, I gave Justin $5 and bumped up the auction price to $6.01, but I was still outbid. Good luck!
Sorry Phillip, my wish list is sort of like yours, so I can't see donating to your cause at this time. Justin already has one, he just needs to get there so he is -> <- that much closer to his goal than you...

Hahah... its ok, I'll be giving my donations to Justin I imagine. I have £4.26 heading his way!

You're now $2 closer.

woohoo you guys rock, Ive been getting tons of publicity now. Anyone live near Paris? ill be there for 9 hours for a layover.

I've emailed the local presses with a link... they love that kind of stuff.

When I was in my teens, the RAF flew me to Cyprus, free and gratis and purely out of goodwill, enabling me to win a "who can go furthest in a day" initiative test, the runner up got from Kent to Hampshire! All I did was turn up at an airbase and ask nicely, adding that I wanted to be a pilot when I left school, they just happened to have a transport going.

My point being, I bet the French would fall over themselves to show the US what nice people they are, re-establishing the entente-cordial, in the current climate.

Why not pitch your story at the French Embassy/Consulate, they must have supply planes going out from France?

Yes, i would love to make this in the press. Thanks for the ideas. How would one go about contacting the French Embassy?

I wonder if GetGregAMotorCycle.com would work? Anyone care to donate?.... after Justin gets to Africa of course

-Greg

haha, yes lets get me to africa first then anything left over will get phillip a car, then greg a cycle. Anyone else need anything?

I want a shark with a frickin' laser beam attached to its head!

Well you already know my answer.

how about sea bass?

How would one go about contacting the French Embassy?

Look here, find the nearest, bone up a bit on the information on the site, so you've got something to talk about, then phone/walk in and ask for the press attache, I would think.

I need to buy a $3000 - $4000 oil burning boiler. I was told yesterday that mine may not last this winter and even if it does, it should be replaced because it is producing too much soot and is rusting out. I don't have the money so would anyone like to contribute to keeping me warm this winter?

I was told yesterday that mine may not last this winter...

My maintenance guy has said this same thing since we bought the house six years ago (our inspector also pointed it out). 40 year old furnace, and counting. He has given us his cell phone, though, for a winter emergency.

He has given us his cell phone, though, for a winter emergency

Wow! I've seen the Ericsson commercials for phones that light up a stadium, but one that provides heat for a winter is amazing! I wonder how long the battery life is? Sure was nice of him to give you that phone!

BTW, since we're starting our "Needs Donations" I need $229 for a new Shimano Chronarch Super Free fishing reel...

but one that provides heat...

Well, my ear does get warm when I use it too long without the earbud...

-jk

Hey, you take your turn behind me

Just go to Africa with Justin. You'd be nice and warm!

justin, id like to see the tally meter update more often. its not so exciting anymore now that it hasnt ever moved.

Go ahead and outbid me if you want... I think I bid $6.01. Bring on the bidders so we can get this boy to Africa....

Sean in NC

Bring on the bidders so we can get this boy to Africa....

Now that's something you don't hear every day. For some reason that made me laugh.

id like to see the tally meter update more often

Yes, me too. I'm feeling I'm not getting my $5 worth of entertainment... I mean that's like almost 3 (F)Atkins snack bars for that much money!!!

Agreed. I might even donate $2 more if I could watch the meter go up.

If it is smoking it needs either the air tweaking or a new burner tip which is probably a 20 dollar part at worst you need a new swirl plate.

also 4 grand on a boiler even in the uk it would cost well less than that.

keep it if it dies it dies but don't get a new one from some one that wants to sell you a new one

It isn't smoking since he worked on it and he replaced the nozzel. The thing is finiky and gets worked on off and on through the winters, it just needs replaced. I have yet to be able to turn it on for the winter without having it serviced first because by the end of the heating season it has clogged back up from soot.

The same guy has been working on it the last 5 years and this is the first time he has suggested it get replaced. I tried a couple of others companies and they managed to make it worse. Over here, not too many places work on oil burners.

No, a shark with a sea bass attached to its head won't cut it...

Cool. The meter has been updated.

Ok for entertainment reason I will update the counter twice a week.

Justin,
I wish you luck in getting to Africa. It looks as if I won the auction. I added a little more to the "shipping" to bring the total to a even amount.

Sean in NC

It looks as if I won the auction

Damn, my maximum bid was $6.00... I never go over my max. You got me by a penny...

Ok well I bought my Plane ticket with the help of a few of you thank you very much! So what i need from people who donated who did not post the address in the paypal account to pelase email or PM me there Addresses so I can send you something special while im there. Also check back to the site after nov 12th becuase I will be posting pictures when I can and have internet access. Also Ill be in Paris Nov 11th and 28th if anyone wants to meet up.

COOL!

Justin stopped over in Paris today on his way to Reunion Island. The weather cooperated enough for us to speed tour him around the city.
