Matt Fernandes sent this to me over the weekend and asked me to pass it along:

Poetry Scores will hold its 2008 Experiential Auction from 5-8 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 21 at Atomic Cowboy, 4140 Manchester Ave. in St. Louis.

It's all here [link], including a complete list of all thirty-eight (38) experiences on auction.

Check it out, bid early, bid often, and please come!

A few highlights: Secretary of State Robin Carnahan takes you horseback riding on her farm in Rolla; Soprano Christine Brewer takes you to a rehearsal with The St. Louis Symphony Orchestra; the artist Michael Lynch paints your pet as Abe Lincoln or Napoleon; Tom Schlafly treats you to a beer at a Schlafly brewpub and gives you a signed copy of his book, A New Religion in Mecca and the homebrewer Anthony Brescia makes you a custom case of beer with a label of your design.
