How to attract new members

As a part of our campaign to cast a wide net for new members and take the message out to the widest audience possible, I suggest to introduce a modest membership fee to be used for the acqusition of this e-bay item:

Gotcha!

You bet your... posterior!
I am at home, in a cast post leg surgery and bored to death. I try to delay suicide by reading, watching "Sandokan" and "Bang Rajan", I wrote a paper, a book chhapter and half of a grant application. In between I browse the Internet and respond to snide comments

ARIEL JUST WAIT A BIT WHEN IT STARTS TO ITCH UNDER THE CAST THERE IS NO TIME FOR BOREDOM JUST THE MAD DESIRE TO SCRATCH

I RECOMEND A WIRE FLYSWATTER HANDLE WITH A LADYS HOSE OVER IT JUST DON'T GET TOO CARRIED AWAY AS IT FEELS SOOO GOOD. IN DESPERATION I MADE ONE SERIOUS MISTAKE BY POURING SOME RUBBING ALCOHOL DOWN THE CAST AFTER SCRATCHING. AS A RESULT I INVENTED QUITE A LIVELY DANCE TO BE DONE WITH CASTS AND CRUCTHES

GET WELL SOON

BACK TO ORIGINAL TOPIC, WHEN I FIND SOMEONE WHO COLLECTS OR DEALS IN EDGED WEAPONS I ALWAYS TELL THEM ABOUT THE FORUM AND RECOMEND IT AS A GOOD PLACE TO LEARN AND ASK QUESTIONS AND HAVE FUN. I HAVE RUN ACROSS THEM AT GUN SHOWS, ANTIQUE STORES AND AUCTIONS MOSTLY. I DON'T KNOW IF ANY HAVE TAKEN MY ADVICE OR JUST FORGOTTEN AS SOON AS I AM GONE BUT AT LEAST THEY HEARD ABOUT IT.
