To: MARMAM Subject: Garage Sale reminder This is a friendly reminder to you and yours that at the upcoming conference in San Diego, we will be hosting the Third International Marine Mammal Extravaganza: The Orderly Garage (sale) Opportunity (TIMME: TO GO), a marine mammal-themed garage sale to benefit the student travel fund. At an opportune moment (now), please raid your colleagues' work space for those little trashy treasures (hint: the tops of computer monitors tend to be especially rewarding). Anything vaguely resembling a marine mammal is fair game. Don't give in to his or her pleas ('I kinda like this' is just not acceptable) - it's for a worthy cause after all. But hey, we're not picky - we'll also gladly take those dusty marine mammal books off your hands. Or that old SLR camera that became obsolete when your photoID project went digital. Bring them along to San Diego (or give them to someone who's going) and drop them off at the garage sale table: E10 & E11 in the exhibition area. Once in San Diego be sure to include the garage sale in your holiday shopping plans. Embellish your home and office with marine-mammal accoutrements. Shower friends and family with luscious gifts (we won't tell that you paid less than $5 for them!). Experience the thrill of the silent auction. Re-gift, rebel, recycle! Safe travels and happy trails! The TIMME: TO GO Team
