Congratulations Jakers gets his wish! - 04/14/00 05:30 AM

Congratulations to Stephen Sostaric, Highland IN -- better known in the chats and on the forums as Jakers -- he won the chance to choose a lighthouse for Harbour Lights to sculpt during the just completed 'Register & Win' contest.

Way to go, Jakers.

Last year's winner was Mombo - Sue LeFever.

To correct Stephen's home town...

Congratulations Jakers! Couldn't happen to a nicer kid. I'm envious. Hope you can keep a secret as well as Mombo can!

Congratulations Jake! Now you can have the fun? of not telling for a year or more!

And don't wish for anything either or we'll know what you didn't pick!

Whatever you choose I'm sure it will be a "great" light! Have fun!

Congratulations Stephen. I hope that none of us bug you too much for your pick. I for one will NOT ask you what you pick to be sculpted. I think that Mombo has some excellent advise for you. Good luck and have fun, we will all be waiting anxiously to find out.

PS. May I ask what lighthouse it WON'T be?!?

Congratulations Jakers! I know you must be very happy. By the way, if you need any advice on the lighthouse decision, just let me know... but then, I'm sure you have received a lot of advice already. It's been a pleasure getting to know you in the chat room. Take care!

Congratulations Stephen!

A better person could not have won this prize. Just think back to discovering your first Harbour Light, getting bitten by the collecting bug, meeting Bill Younger for the first time, and now you get to chose a lighthouse for Harbour Lights to sculpt.

Did you ever imagine?

Way to go Stephen!

Congratulations Stephen - it sure is exciting to get that phone call! Now what is your favorite lighthouse? On a lake or an ocean? Comeon Stephen....just a little hint of what your thinking. You are in for a great year.

Good job Stephen. Why don't you ask for a lifejacket sculpture? Stay dry buddy.

Hey Jakers! ...Looks like you earned a spot in the HL History Book. Congrats! I hope you have a very special light in mind. What a thrill it will be for you to know it was your choice when you stop by the various HL Dealers and see your piece on the shelf.

Why not throw 'em for a loop and pick a nice deciduous tree. ;-)

Just leaving,

Congratulations Stephen I know you must really be pumped up about this. I bet you will pick one one the Great Lakes. Could not happen to a nicer person. Keep up the good work you are doing for this forum and hobby.

Well, I was waiting to post when I got the call from Kim, but I still haven't and I figure that I've delayed enough. Message to Kim: I AM HOME! PLEASE CALL! I AM GETTING ANXIOUS EVERYTIME THE PHONE RINGS! Now that THAT'S out of the way, thanks for all of the congrats from everyone. I apperciate it. As you can obviously tell from what I put above, I can't wait!!!

Thanks again,

Jakers

Hang in there Jakers... I'm sure Kim is getting ready to make that infamous phone call to you anytime now. But then, maybe she is trying to make you sweat a bit. Whoever said "patience is a virtue" never had to wait for anything! LOL Again... congratulations!
