Congratulations to Hounder who drew the winning number at last night's Chat and Film Viewing, Melbourne Cup edition! Hounder's horse, Green Moon, was the winner! Hers will be the traditional prize for our evening, a 1936 silver half-dollar commemorating the wager placed on the nose of "Schnozzolola" by Mr. Chan himself! Once again, congratulations...
I am happy that your victory brightened an otherwise dismal day...understood. I will be sending you your winner's coin as soon as possible, as it just arrived to Yours Truly in the mail. In hopes of having it ready for our evening, I had ordered the coin earlier, and, true to the globetrotting nature of Charlie Chan himself, our coin for this year was sent to us, believe it or not, from the Iberian country of Portugal! If you can kindly send your present mailing address to charliechanfamily@yahoo.com the coin will complete the last leg of its long journey to you...
