Fmmahoganyrush said:I can't seem to dig one up for the life of me, and I'm usually pretty good at finding things from the ridiculous to the sublime, but damn, no A/C's. Kinda sux becuase that little house turns into a real sweat-house during a sunny day. If I can manage to write some bail bonds between now and then, I may be able to swing a $99 special or something from Bernies or some other local place. Maybe we should hit everyone up for 5 or 10 bucks when people show and just go out and get one then.. i dunno
I know there's got to be someone out there with a 5,ooo btu unit sitting in their basement that they don't use for one reason or another... We just gotta hope they see this thread before they're packed and on the road.

jgourd said:I will contribute as well. I would also like to take up a collection for David K's medical expenses. In fact every penny I get for this year's CD will go to David K with the exception of the live feed cost of $200.

Fmmahoganyrush said:...as far as the A/C is concerned, I'm still gonna look around to see if there's one kicking around a basement of a friend or relative. I used to have one sitting in the shed out at the cottage (which I'll look for today), but in recent trips out there, I can't remember seeing it in plain sight, which really doesn't mean much considering what the inside of the shed looks like. I seem to remember dragging that one to the dump a few years back though. I will do my best to come up with something.

Just a thought,... don't know how much you want for BTUs.... 5000 should do OK out there...

Fmmahoganyrush said:I did the same thing by checking out the local classified rag. There's quite a few 5000 btu units nearby for around $50, so that might be the way I go.
