pay up. The charity to receive your $25 is Fisher House, a non-profit helping the families of wounded vets. Just make an anonymous donation
and dedicate it to the Honor of Barack Obama. Thanks.

From the thread where the bet happened:

I'll take your bet...
I believe this would have woodchip make the donation in the name of "callmeslick", not "the Honor of Barack Obama".

In any case, you guys can deal with any questions about making good on the bet in PM. 8)

good man, Woodchip!!! Not caring about the actual attribution, yours is just fine.
Aside: on another forum, the loser is starting to dance around paying up, it seems, at the moment.
Once again, thank you for manning up, and benefitting a fine cause.

Woody, if that is your name on that receipt, you should scratch it out, or delete the image now that slick has seen it.

Unless you don't care, that is...

hell, I never bothered to read his name, I have a certain level of trust.
Update on my other wagering victim.....he 'remembered' his ill-fated wager and not only paid up, he doubled the amount in the name of a fallen comrade who died in Afghanistan. So, if nothing else good came of the political word-wars of the past years, at least a very good cause made an extra $75. :D

Actually I don't. If someone wants to make r/l trouble with me, I can find creative ways to reciprocate. While I don't agree with Slicks political views, I think he still has a sense of honor.

Shows me how blind as a bat I am...I didn't even notice the name entry until it was pointed out. :P
