1817 is the name of Chris's band.

I think it was alos the year MS because a state, but I could be wrong on that.

Congratulations - You got a 5'er - but the date I was talking about was 8/24/07 - that's a little harder.

I think I'll open up the second part of the contest to everyone!

Somehow I feel I know the answer to that second part

True... all true... especially the part about Shelby rocks!


but not the answer I'm looking for. The answer I'm looking for can be found on the board... and it isn't obvious.

ok - here's a hint... once you figure it out it should make perfect sense why I chose that date.

...now that may not seem like much of a hint, but if you work my logic backwards it will help.

Shelby, I misread the "joined the board AFTER 5/24/07" part...

I edit my response so someone else could get it if you wanted. Might be too late. Sorry about that.

No problem... start working on the second part and you might still win.

Oops - Sorry - You gave it away, but you weren't elegible. I just checked your join date and it was BEFORE 8/25/07. You joined on 11-14-2006

Sooo... We will roll the entire prize over to the person who can give me the significance of the date - 8/24/07. This one will take a little research. And it's open to everyone.
