All the participants at the Turtle conference received a t-shirt commenmorating the event. . . I never wear t-shirts but I took one, size XL. I immeditely thought I'd put it in the Spirited Work auction but Spirited Work is fading out a bit and there will be no Spirited Work auction this year. . . . SO! I am donating my black size XL t-shirt to the OSonOS auction.
This t-shirt has a custom-designed turtle logo on the front and a cool quote about self-organizing or something on the back. If you would like to own it but won't be in Halifax, please feel free to send me your bids via email. Since this is a fun-raiser, minimum bid for this one-a-kind item that marks an aweseomf development in the field of self-organizing systems can be yours. . . .If you would like to make an extremely high bid right now so the funds can be made available in advance of Halifax, please send me your extremely high bids and I'll see if I want to accept it. Another item coming your way in the auction (and also available via email): as one of the co-convenors of the Seattle Practice of Peace, I was gifted a blue and black sarong. Blue is my color but sarongs are not 'me'. . . this is no ordinary sarong for it is embued with the transformative energy field we created at the Seattle Practice of Peace. And finally, my last auction item of the week, that I will bring to OSonOS (and send if for some reason I don't pull together the money to actuallyl get there.. . . I try not to think about such possibilities. . . ) I have a brand new purple polartec scarf that someone gave me for Xmas two years ago and I have never worn. A perfectly nice scarf. . . but I am set in my ways and it isn't me. Minimum bids on this will be low, like $3 (hmmm . . . will the OSonOS auction be done in Canadian or US dollars and what the heck will the exchange rate be in August?!) Oops. . . I just thought of something else. Last summer, in a fit of hopefulness, I bought a three-CD set of lectures about Vipassana meditations. I have still not listened to these CD's even though each of the three speakers are leading Buddhist teachers. Original retail value: $35 (US). . . minimum bid in August (or via email if you are interested. . .) is $5 (US). I might need to ship a trunk to Halifax because I will have so much stuff to sell.
