Quoted from Tilt:I can make it happen
I've always wanted that to be my tag line.
Quoted from bangerjay:Don't forget to volunteer to run pinball Olympics stuff, cause I'm going to be lit up
Sorry, but I'll be helping you get lit up.
Quoted from bangerjay:I have something for you when we reach peak litness
Now I'm all giddy.
Quoted from APB_Enterprises:You know, I think I can actually picture Bryan Kelly giddy. Weird.
Andrew
All kidding aside, giddy is having Terry and Margaret donate the proceeds to the open house to diabetes research in honor of my grandson Gordon. No one should have to live with something like this, especially a child who doesn't understand.
Here's a pic of Gordon 3 years ago when he was diagnosed with diabetes. And another a couple years later hooked up to his pump and Dexcom monitor.
And the last, Charlie and Kayte Emery on their wedding day. Sorry. I had to.

Quoted from SpookyKT:Kelly you are in sooooo much trouble!!!
Oh oh. I recognize that lipstick.
Quoted from jellikit:I was hoping to get photos of the BKFC (Bryan Kelly Fan Club, for those who don't know) cards in various places all around the world. But things have moved a bit slow on my end as there are still a number of people who haven't received their cards yet! I guess I shouldn't have given as many hundreds away at TPF...
Brad
Bryan Kelly would really appreciate it if you stopped that.
Quoted from jellikit:I have heard that Bryan Kelly doesn't always know what Bryan Kelly wants, but he is a very good listener so that may be helpful.
Brad
Bryan Kelly doesn't care about a fan club. Bryan Kelly is more concerned about the amount of money raised to rid the world of diabetes or to come up with an easier way for those inflicted with it to deal with it. Bryan Kelly would love to see his grandson live life like every other almost 5 year old does.
Two more pics then I'm done. This is, after all, about Pinball Life's open house. First pic is Gordon at his first day of pre school that Grandma has taken him to. He's loving every minute of it. But then, as he pulls his backpack off, he rips his Dexcom monitor off the backside of his arm where he prefers to wear it. My son, who works 45 minutes away, gets an instant notification he's getting no signal from the Dexcom and wonders, WTF!! That's the shit he lives with 24/7. You don't even want to know the number of times his phone's alarm goes off in the middle of the night because Gordon's numbers have gone below 50.
Second pic is of Gordon's brother Teddy, who's 1 1/2 years old. Because Gordon has diabetes, Teddy has a 30% better chance of getting it himself. I can't imagine having to deal with two kids with this ugly f'ing disease.
Diabetes sucks!!!!

Quoted from dothedoo:Will there be any Pinfooties available? Another good way to support Bryan.
Thank you, but I haven't made them in a year or so. Terry got my last 150 sets.
Quoted from stpcore:I'm bringing 10 cases of Pinball Juicy Hop Pale Ale for the PBL party for those of you that may not have tried it yet. Looking forward to meeting some new Pinsiders this year.
Bring 11. I've got cash!!
Quoted from cards25:I will not be there Friday, going thursday only. Will there be a way to make a donation at the Open House Party?
Trust me, what Terry and Margaret are doing is more than enough, but if anyone would like to donate to Team G, you can go here.
