Alan, I hereby donate 500 of my karma to you for you to buy the Peter Sellers car. You'll need it to have a place to sleep after the "1000 karma" prizes for the women. ;D
This thread did make me think... would people trade karma for messageboard prizes? Things like name changes, custom titles (other than penguin names), a "get out of jail" free card, custom medals, games named after them, etc.?
Not sure if any of that is *actually* possible, but it's something that is interesting...

For 2000 karma points you can take home one of these awesome, industrial strength blenders!

However, if your karma budget is a bit limited, as is mine, then for 150 points you can have a delicious glass of "cochicken." ;D ;D ;D

Wayne ...
Whilst I may be the 'father' of this thread .... I certainly don't 'own' it. I quickly skipped town ... leaving the poor mother (whoever she may be ;) ) ... to change the nappies (diapers to you) ... and all those not so pleasant tasks associated with 'thread raising' . Yes .... I'm a heel ! :P ;D (and nowhere to be found when it comes to paying 'thread maintenance ! :P :D ).
Anyhow's .... you wanna post some 'Trad Can. Karma Greeting' .... be my guest ! ;D
