Karma Catalog

I noticed today that I have accumulated a large number of Karma points and I thank each and every member that has given me Karma. Since no one knows how many points other members have, I will have to assume that I have a fairly large amount.
Now, what do I do with all these points? I doubt any airlines or hotel chains will honor them. I thought we could come up with a Karma Catalog and list some of the items we could trade our points for. Here are a few that I came up with:

· Tour of Uwe’s secret Area 63 (You will be blindfolded and driven from an IKEA parking lot)
· A RBCCI hat just like 2air’
· A LPPI Beanie (propeller or horn)
· Various SaveWally items from 65GT’s collection

Ok, now it your turn. What would you like to see in the Karma Catalog?

I would like to have a three day tour of Balgrn's Airstream/Argosy Museum and Fine Lawn Furniture Emporium.

I can tell you that the LPPI beanies will be at least 300 Karma points each.
The one with the horn is special, that one will run at least 400 karma points.

OK, here is another one
Tickets to see Janet's group perform

Where in the ... ?

The casual reader may know that each of us may award karma at the bottom left of a post window. This might be done when we see something of value, an excellent post or a particularly fine rib tickler.

But what about the mystery of receiving it yourself? Go in to your 'User CP' and scroll to the bottom section, 'Reputation Received.' This is where those karma awards and any comments end up. Now and then it is fun to see what intrigued other readers.

How cool is that!

Wow, I never knew. So tonight I got to give some karma. Then, to my surprise, I found I already had some karma too!
How many points would it take for a visit to Wally's secret prototype vault, if one exists? Or maybe x number of points per minute of unfettered opportunity in the Airstream salvage yard of your dreams, all the parts you can detach and carry? OK, so maybe my imagination is a little overactive . . .

Practical prizes..

How about:

1. 1 qt of POR-15 in your choice of colors for 100 points (VAC Members only!)
2. A tube of Vulkem for 50 points (can be used by all!)
3. Your very own Beret and WBCCI Parliamentarian Handbook for 1000 points... (Couldn't resist...)

Wikipedia says:

The Theory of Karma

"Karma literally means action. We first take an intent and follow it up with action in the form of thought, speaking to others, planning and execution. According to the Theory of Karma - every action taken to achieve a result or profit (fruit of action) leaves a trace or a karmic residue behind it. It is this residue that keeps accumulating and takes away one's well-being and freedom. Only a person who acts to produce results without worrying about profit (Nishkama Karma or Niskarma) does not accumulate such a Karmic residue. Such action normally comes from love or pure passion."
