This Rock Giveaway

I’ve been slowly going through the endless piles of "stuff" that I’ve accumulated over the years, and I have decided that I am going to get rid of all my back issues of This Rock.  (I’ve already distilled out of them whatever material I will need.) 

I haven’t done an actual tallying, but I’m sure that I probably have the past 10 years or so–in full.  Do you know of anyone who would want these back issues?  (Or do you know where they could be best used?) 

I am willing to give them away, but there is one hitch.  It would probably be somewhat costly to ship them, and I’m not really in a position to do that at this time.  So whoever is going to get these magazines would have to pay for shipping.

If folks want to call dibs in the combox, I’ll forward the names and e-mail addresses to the friend doing the This Rock giveaway on a first come, first served basis (i.e., if for any reason it doesn’t work out with the first person who calls dibs, I’ll send him the second persons’s name).

These This Rocks have a lot of uses. Not only can you use them for yourself, you give them as gifts, use them for evangelization, turn more folks on to This Rock, send them to prisoners, etc., etc.

All yours just for the asking (and the shipping)!

I'd LOVE them.
I'll be back in town from singing in Missouri on the 10th. Contact me and I'll make arrangements then.
Thanks!

I want them for sure!
I'll be in Missouri singing till Sunday the 10th. Contact me, and I'll make arrangments then. thanks so much!

If you decide to send them to a prison, I'd be happy to pick up the shipping costs - just send an e-mail. Got that inspiration from reading this month's copy of This Rock.

naturally, I'd love any of the issues from before I began subscribing - probably around winter 2004

I went to a local Catholic giftshop, and there were copies of This Rock on sale for .25 cents each. I have two years worth of articles gathering dust. I figure I'll come across a convert eventually who could use them.

Forgot to include my email address with the above post; sorry!
In Jesu et Maria,

Would a parish library be too cramped a home for them?

I realize I'm slightly late, but I'd like them.

I will take them. Shipping cost is not an issue.

My copy of the November 2004 issue (Volume 15, Number 9) recently got badly damaged. I'd like that one, if he has it.
In Jesu et Maria,

Do you have a gift subscription available? Just kdding...
I was thinking library myself...

I'll pay for shipping (at least if it's under $40)

I think it would be great to donate them to a library at a Catholic University (if they don't already have them). Perhaps Steubenville?

Sounds good to me--but I'd like a weight and total issue estimate, though.
