[jps]

I see we're winning so far. What's the prize?

[cheyenne]

I think I heard that the winners get a new Rick with the full width inlays.

I may have heard wrong though...................

A early retirement.

[Barris]

Born in '65. Right on the line between so-called "Boomers" and "Busters".

Old enough for my teenage kids to think I'm dorky!!!

I was about 22 before I realized how cool my dad was.

When I started this thread I actually thought the 'boomers' would be lagging. Guess not.

The prize for the 'boomers' is, if we remain ahead, we all get more Ricks, remain nimble enough to play, and best yet, have the ability to remember what we're playing.

Not that I actually "own" any but '62 for me... do co-owner's qualify? I do have a vested interest.. I do co-own don't I ?

This may be hard for Steve to bear, but in reality, you own everything, Tammy!

I was born in July of 73. One of my missions in life is to find and buy (prerequisite being to be able to afford) a Rick from that month and year.

I have a "birthday Ric," but it doesn't have the Rickenbacker name.... It's a 1969 Electro ES-17 FG that was made in September. It's kinda cool!

I just got my offer this past Thursday. Maybe I already won!

C/B w/small inlays, which is fine with me.
