Damn the luck!  Sorry to hear that.  I won't be out this weekend but I'm
planning on making it for Memorial weekend.  If you still have that shoe
on by then, we'll have to run the bastard up the mast for it.

I wanted to let ya'll know that when you see me at Faire this upcoming weekend - don't be shocked to see a protective boot on my right foot. I had a heavy electric wheelchair battery fall on the top of my foot last night in work.

No bones broken (thankfully)...but did end up needing crutches and the protector for a week due to deep tissue bruising and swelling. I am hoping i can just get around wearing the shoe by Saturday....the swelling is slowly receding.

If ya wondering how a battery can do that much damage, it wieghed over 50 lbs...and dislodged when the wheelchair was up in a truck, and the guy turned the wheelchair on its side without warning <<grrrrrrrr>. I swore like a real mean pirate, made his ears turn beat red.....And he himself was a truckdriver and thought he heard all the swears out there!! LMFAO

See ya'll this weekend.

From: Paul Delacroix <middlefaire@...>
Subject: [middlefaire] MIDDLEFAIRE 2007 BUILT BOOTH SPECIALTY LEASE AGREEMENT POSTED
To: middlefaire@yahoogroups.com, middlefairecraftvendors@yahoogroups.com

Greetings everyone,

 

I have posted the Middlefaire 2007 Built Booth Specialty Lease Agreement

in Files on the Middlefaire Craft Vendors Yahoo Group. Anyone who wishes to

read it can join the group and see it there. I'm using that as a "carrot" just to

encourage anyone interested in vending out of a hardshell booth to pop in and

join that (currently small) group.

 

Other faire owners and friendly folk are welcome to peek at it as well.  If

you see anything in our agreement you want to use as a model for your own

paperwork, feel free with my compliments. I want our lease agreement out there

where any prospects can read it, in the hopes that I will get more interested

parties.  

 

Next year, rentals on these specialty leases will go up. What I have created is

an absolute outhouse bargain, an out-and-out steal, for anyone who wants to

build this summer. Consider it a Grand Opening Sales Giveaway. It's a "sale"

that won't be back next year..I simply could not afford to do it every year. 

 

Allow me to cite one example:

 

(A) If you rent a 12' x 16' space for your pavilion tent, that essentially will

constitute a "large", and you will pay $40 per weekend--that's at this year's

prices.

 

(B) If you lease a 12' x 16' space and build a 10' x 15' wooden booth on it,

under the terms of our 2007 agreement, for the first three years, you will pay

no rent at all.

 

The first three years are complimentary, in recognition of the expense and

hard work involved in building a wooden booth structure.

 

However as they say on the old TV commercials "But wait--that's not all!"     

 

The following seven years of your ten year agreement, you will be locked in at

the price of .12 cents per square foot of ground space, per festival weekend.

 

Do the math---at that rate of .12 cents per square foot, you can be paying $18

a weekend for a wooden booth that catches the eye and pulls in foot traffic.

That's until 2017. It's not only an absurd bargain compared to what most other

faires will be charging tent vendors--it's an absurd bargain compared to what

WE are charging tent vendors right now..!

 

As additional build incentives:

 

1. You don't have to build a wooden floor on ground level. Dirt is fine; that's

what a real historical village would have...with floors, it's your choice.

 

2. You don't have to build full frontal walls on the ground level, if you'd rather

have an open-plaza style booth. (This is in the village of Haymarket Square

only--in Wilton Shire, Peltham Downs, and Altenmuenster, the architectural

requirements may be a bit more stringent.)

 

3. Anything above ground level does not accrue additional rent.

In other words, the hypothetical $18 a weekend booth cited above COULD

just as easily be an *$18 a weekend two-story booth*.

 

 

I'm making these offers to encourage any craft vendors who don't have fancy

tent pavilions, who are perhaps operating out of an EZ-up, to consider an

upgrade to a wooden structure. The above offer is 2007 only...it will expire on

faire day this October.

 

I'm giving away everything but a 5-piece Bamboo Steamer set here, folks. ;-)

 

If interested, please write me for more details and discussion.

 

Onward,

 

Paul Delacroix

May 1, 2007 5:05 pm        (PST)                    I wanted to let ya'll know
that when you see me at Faire this upcoming weekend - don't be shocked to see a
protective boot on my right foot. I had a heavy electric wheelchair battery fall
on the top of my foot last night in work.
   No bones broken (thankfully)...but did end up needing crutches and the
protector for a week due to deep tissue bruising and swelling. I am hoping i can
just get around wearing the shoe by Saturday....the swelling is slowly receding.
   If ya wondering how a battery can do that much damage, it wieghed over 50
lbs...and dislodged when the wheelchair was up in a truck, and the guy turned
the wheelchair on its side without warning <<grrrrrrrr>. I swore like a real
mean pirate, made his ears turn beat red.....And he himself was a truckdriver
and thought he heard all the swears out there!! LMFAO
   See ya'll this weekend.
   Dobby


===> Aww.. sorry to hear about that Dobby. If it makes ya feel any better, yer
boot can be the match to the one I have on my left. ::grins:: I'm keeping my
fingers crossed that this will be the last weekend I have to hobble around on it
at Scarby..  Ortho appointment on the 8th and I'm keeping everything crossed
that they tell me, "Okay, you can do without the torture device disguised in
velcro".

   CHAOS - Isengrim

Tour for Tara - Tipperary Inn

We're returning once again to the Tipperary Inn for
another exciting performance one of the great Irish
venues of Dallas. This time, we're adding a wee
bonus... This is part of our Tour for Tara.

The Irish government is planning a highway right by
the former home of the High Kings of Ireland. The
beautiful vista that you may've experienced while
visiting Tara in the past, may disappear forever,
replaced by a highway. We hope to raise awareness for
the upcoming Anam Cara Festival organized by the
Global Arts Collective Initiative.

Thurs, May 17, 2007
Tipperary Inn @ 8pm-12am
5815 Live Oak St
Dallas, TX 75214-7310
(214) 821-6500
No Cover
--------------

I'll be there! I hope you will be too! There was a
great turnout they last time they were here, so let's
have one even bigger this time!

Good luck and I'll see you there.

A year ago, my son turned 21 and so many of you called to wish him happy
birthday, and it really made his day.

Well now, that next big event is going on for him.
Saturday, May the 12th, My Son Drew will graduate from Baylor university.
His degree is in Theatre Arts, and he hopes to become an Actor.
Current Plans are to move to New York or Boston this summer and start his
career.

So, if anybody is willing to take 5 minutes out of their time this weekend to
give him a phone call, I would greatly appreciate it.  Just a quick message to
say Congrats on graduating, and good luck going forward (or as some of you do,
to personalize that message just a bit)

If you would like to help me with this, please send me an email to
CuthbertofHW@...

and I'll send you his phone number.

Thanks in advance for your help.
