If you were at WDW in Dec 2002, please read this thread

For my December 2002 visit to WDW, I made the effort to find out the names of every DISer who would there at the same time as myself so that I could give them a personalized DIS button. I made over 200 buttons and managed to find nearly 75% of them and give them their button. This leaves me with over 50 buttons that I have been moving from place to place in my house for over 3 years. So here is my plea to you. If you see a button that has your DIS name in the following photo and if you would like me to send it to you, send me a PM with your name, your DIS name, and an address where you would like me to send the button, and I will drop it in the mail for you.

Sadly there has been at least one person for whom I made a button that passed away before I could deliver their button. As I am not always keenly aware of all the comings and goings of the DIS, if there is anyone in the photo who is no longer living or no longer associated with the DIS, please send me a PM to let me know.

I will keep the buttons around until June after which time I will drop them in the recycle bin at work. Thanks for your help at my efforts at spring cleaning.

Bump!

 

[goofy4tink]

bumping you up...maybe some one will see their pin!!!

 

[Good Ol Gal]

that was very cool of you!!

maybe you could just pm them all and tell them you have their buttons, etc.

I know it could be a pain to do but at least you wouldn't leave it up to chance that they'll find this thread.

Perhaps I'll take the time to send out the 50 or so PMs. I was just looking for the easy way out. I guess I know what I'll be doing this evening. At least I shouldn't get any "server busy" messages.

For those of you who didn't see the original post (back in 2002), here is a photo of the complete collection of buttons:

I have to work tonight, but I can help you with sending the PMs if you want. Let me know if you want help. I can take the names off your picture and send them a link to this thread.

I think that you can send one PM to 5 people, so if you copy/paste the actual message it would only be 11 messages being sent.

PM if you would like me to help

TC - I said it before and will say it again, you were/are too kind to have done this for everyone. I got mine back in 2002. Thank you again for all of the time and energy you put into making and distributing them.

I still have my button, John. Thanks for doing these. BTW, I see my name in the big picture with the 200 buttons.

Your eyesight is much better than mine.

I sent Talking Hands a pm for you...

 

[Towncrier]

This is working out great. I'm getting everyone to send PMs to their friends. I feel like a regular Tom Sawyer. Anyone else want to help whitewash the fence?

I got mine from you, thank you. I sure wish that we had Dis meets during Mousefest, but that seems to be a thing of the past.

 

[KristaTX]

We had some DIS meets, Carl. Maybe not official Mousefest/DIS meets, but there were a few meets where almost everyone was from the DIS. I wondered where you were, but I think maybe you got to town too late for some of them. Ray hosted a couple during MVMCP http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=838407 and http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=838606, and TLinden16 had her Jellyrolls one http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=836147.

Also a lot of us just hung out all over the place together. Some we planned in advance with our good DIS friends, and sometimes we just ran into each other.

I wasn't around the DIS in 2002!

I wasn't either, but we were in Disney in Dec. 2002

Sweet memories, eh?

 

[disfanatiks]

I still have my button, John!!! I take it to WDW everytime we go!!!

 

[SplshMtn99]

no there's some names you don't see around here anymore.

 

[Towncrier]

I figured that would probably be the case.

Yes good memories, but a sad one too. That is the year my sister fell on the ice the night before we were to leave and she knocked her hip out of joint and couldn't go.
