Poll question: Goodie-related question for those headed to Boston this weekend
Edited on Wed Apr-20-05 03:17 PM by VelmaD
I'm thinking of sending goodies by way of GOPisEvil. You've got until I get off work at 5:30 CDT today to vote (gotta go get the stuff to make whatever on the way home from work tonight). Would you rather I sent chocolate chip cookies or brownies?

I need guidance. And an enthusiastic reply or two wouldn't go amiss. :)

If you know what I mean.

4. Well...somebody has to carry them...
with them on the airplane. I'd hate for poor GOPisEvil to get a body cavity search.

6. Velma's brownies are special even without the secret ingredient.
Besides, she's not gonna send THOSE brownies to Boston without being there herself. What's the fun in drugging someone and then NOT having her way with 'em? ;-)

12. Yes...
just make sure to put some airholes in the box so Will can breathe. :)

Seriously though, any cheap tacky souvenir you wanted to send would be wonderful. I collect 'em. The tackier the better. :)

17. I guess some Carolina BBQ is out of the question,
as it would get eaten by the people on the plane.
