[size=large] a form of it's own. Made up of parts, pieces and what-nots of members of this forum that were fortunate (or should I say Unfortunate) to be awarded the grotesque little gremlin. They say there's a curse that follows the receiving of the thing (I'll let the bearers recount their own misfortunes in hind-sight). Beware that on some cold windy night when the moon is full, that you do not hear the dragging of chains and a small knock at your door. [/size]
Here is a photo of a distant cousin of the welk.

.... some outstanding action they performed, either worthwhile, silly, or just plain stupid.
Each recipient decides who the next winner of this traveling award will be and adds something to personalize it just prior to sending it to the next winner.
In it's original format, it was just a water detecting recovered SW Florida whelk shell with a pull tab
stuck in the opening. It was then gold plated .... with cheap spray paint. does anyone have a photo of the original?
It has no name ... is neither male or female, is not young or old, is not conservative or liberal, ... it is just a coveted award.
If I remember correctly, Charlie (KY) was the first award winner for having his plumbing get plugged up while he and the lovely Beverly visited here in SW Florida .... and spent several days and thousands of dollars in an upstate Florida hospital until a surgeon with Roto Rooter credentials could be located and blast proof retaining walls erected around Charlies hospital room.
Thus the first really true use of the phrase "Thar she blows" was coined.
