Let me start right now by asking all of you to make plans, shut off your computer... and go out and actually DO something worthy of it being "Jones's Birthday".

Do something worth writing about when you come back. Take pictures and we'll help post them.

Good idea. The RPG last year wasn't all that great. Indy walked in the Raven, disappeared with a bottle of scotch and then we didn't see him anymore. At least, I didn't.

Some Indy-eque suggestions:

* Face a fear head-on -- do something you were always afraid to do.
* Be a hero to someone-- volunteer for a charity (and wear your fedora while doing it)
* Visit a museum and learn something!
* Hug a veteran--- after all, Indy was a vet too!
* Go on a trip
* Look something up that you're curious about
* Use at least 3 Indy quotes that day in keeping with the situation. EG-- you're stuck doing dishes. Say "dishes, why'd it have to be dishes?"
* Spend some of the day with someone of a different nationality than your own
* Help someone in need-- see volunteering
* Introduce a child/children to Indy
* Rent a travel video about a certain place.
* As suggested before-- watch the movies, read the books, wear the hat, crack your whips (be careful, though, will ya?)
* Rescue someone, ANYONE!!
* Get some exercise by doing something athletic and outdoorsy. Go hiking, rock climbing, kayaking, horseback riding-- and post your pics.
* Post your idea here!

Add: something that keeps in the limits of <i>sane</i>. So don't go body-stopping trucks to the freeway or try to teach a bunch of Neo-Nazis that there could be better ideologies.

The entrance fees have gone up again.

Filthy pest! From <i>me</i> you're not going to lift a wallet!

How does Indyologist look naked? Hmm... peeping time.

"Hahahahaaa... sonofabitch!" Remember to make sure that jerk's not going to find you afterwards.

Now that mommy is busy... I'd like to introduce you to a certain funny man who likes to play with whips and leather. Oh, I'm sure he likes kids very much...

Go ahead, punk... make my day.

Do like Indy would do and use your own brain... you're not supposed to do <i>all</i> the things in the list.

Ren, you see... I'm not going to have any kind of Indy day on July the 1st. Check the calendar and you will notice that for me it's the ultimate <i>Finn</i> Day.

Wahoo!!! Indy day is fast approaching.

Better get that recipe for a cake once more!

Ladies, I think us droollers should also do some extra things to celebrate Indy's birthday.

* Get all of the girls together to watch the movies, and we can drool as a whole group :D
* Get a picture of Indy with one of his girlfriends and superimpose your face onto hers ;)
* Post as many yummerific pictures of Indy as you can find in the Indy drooling thread :p
* Dress as Marion/Willie/Elsa and hope that you meet your own Indy! ;)
* Make Indy wallpapers with pictures just of Indy's chest. Mmmm. :eek:
* Write an Indy love poem :rolleyes:

Okay, I think the guys probably wanna kill me now... :dead:

NO Kiddin!!

The entrance fees have gone up again.

And so has the cost of cigarettes, bucko. Guess which is healthier for you?

I meant someone you KNOW who's a vet, melonhead! Nyuk, nyuk!

Wouldn't YOU like to know ;)

Hilarious!

Do like Indy would do and use your own brain... you're not supposed to do <i>all</i> the things in the list.

Amen to that!! To do everything on this list, you'd have to be Superman, not Indiana Jones! You have some, uh, creative ideas Finn. Twisted mental state, but some great ideas.

To give your outfit that "I've been to hell and back with Indy on an adventure look", be sure to:

1. Tear your dress/outfit in strategic places
2. Bear your cleavage, any cleavage, for the guys
3. Roll in the dirt
4. Get a perfect manicure. Now, open a drawer and put just the tips of your nails just beneath it. Slam the drawer shut.
5. Develop a tolerance to snakes, rats or bugs by having a friend dump a bucket containing them on you.
6. Try to look lovely and act like a lady through it all.
7. Practice screaming.
8. Either jump from a plane or bungee jump because sister, you're gonna fall from some dizzying height at least once.
9. Think of your own here.

I had not thought about this earlier but Indy's birthday is the same day as Canada day. Guess I get to celebrate my Nation's birthday as well as my favorite film character. I'm looking forward to that whiskey.

Let's see Indy will be exactly 115 years old so... that would make him officially older than the oldest living person (114). We gotta CElebrate.

Um, Indy will be 105 as he was born in 1899. ;)

Not a bad idea. I think I even know someone who would do it with all pleasure...

Sure, you say that now. But just wait till I submit my photos for the contest, then we'll see what you'll let me get away with calling you. :D

Just kidding, Canyon. You know I have nothing but respect for you and all the females on this board, Finn included. ;)

Seriously though, I wrote that in the spirit of Indy, who's probably uttered that word on more than one occasion.
