Join Us One And All
I've set up a Skype chat for Monday morning at 8. The chat will only be an hour, so it won't interfere with your daily schedule. Pass the word on, and invite your friends to join. Chad, we'd really like you to be there. If many of you take part in our online discussions- pertaining to Festivus, we will be able to drum up an army of people to band together to discuss ways we can make Festivus a wonderfully exciting event in the history of Southern Wisconsin. The way I imagine this to totally work is if we have a large number of people participating.
We can all come together in an online community to come up with ways of collaborating in special events that could also be used for raising money for worthwhile causes. Chad Murphy-Price, a good friend of mine, is trying to raise enough money so he can get a new wheelchair. Sure, all the preparations for 5FsFestivus have been stressful, but it's all oing to be completely worth it in the end.
Don't give up, even if this is stressing you out (as it is me to some extent). Just pursue ahead and think of what good this is going to do for a good person who is really in need of help right now. Chad is a good friend, and I say that when a friend is in need of help, we should team up together and try to help him to the very best of our abilities.

Festivus is Like Sports
We need more participation in the Hey Whatever Social WebChat sessions. Chad's Crazy Crew, you're a major part of this event. It would be very nice if you could take time out of your busy schedule to participate in our Skype Calls/Chats sessions. Festivus will be hug if our help, as far as chatline/room participatants rises in a major way. Encourage your friends to join our Festivus campaign to assist us in making this event the biggest and best ever. Wouldn't it be awesome if we had, like 100 people or more, participate in our Skype discussions for Festivus? I'm here to invite you. . . to encourage you to be an active member of Team Festivus, and join in on our Skype chats.
If you don't haveHey Whatever webchat , it's realy easy to get. You can go to www.heywhateversocial.info. Once you are there, you can download the HWE webchat toolbar.

On this website, you can create blogs for Festivus, as well as sharing information about yourself, and educating others about Festivus.
Try to be on the HWE chats every day, so you know what's going on. This way, you can be in the know as to what's going on in the Festivus world. Again, encourage your friends to share in the chats for Festivus. Like the saying "many hands make light work", we would appreciate it if we've got lots of helpers working together to make this work.
Festivus is like Cubs baseball. It's a team effort, and everyone has a specific role to play in making that the entire team works together. I'm writing to encourage all my CCC friends to become Festivites, and together we can strive to making this a big holiday. Attention- all you Cubs fans. . . please join us in this years Festivus events in Wisconsin. www.festivus.webs.com's got all the details you may actually need to know about it.

My Confidence in Chad's Crazy Crew
It's fantastic to have an opportunity to plug Festivus on TV. I'm really glad you've got an opportunity to do this, Chad. I know that you're going to do great. There's absolutely NO doubt in my mind that you're going to have a successful "plug" about our upcoming events. As a fellow member of CCC and your best friend, I really think that this is most definitely a wonderful opportunity for you to get the word out about our fundraisers and other activities which will be coming up
Chad, I wish that I could be there to provide moral support on Friday during your news appearance. Unfortunately (since I don't get WTMJ down here in Springfield), that moral support's going to have to come only in the way of blogging, e-mailing, chats on Facebook, and encouraging words to you and Rock.
I have already e-mailed my mom about your news appearance. I want her to see just how well-rounded you are. . . that you're not just the "average" guy. In y eyes, Chad, you're somewhat a local celebrity. Not only do you give inspirational, motivating speeches at different locations, you also make news appearances to talk about upcoming events that you're going to be involved in in the Southern Wisconsin region.
I'm extremely confident in Chad's ability to drum up interest in Festivus. I wish, though, that I was able to be in Milwaukee, Wisconsin right now- not only to be of support for Chad's drive to drum up interest in getting people interested in the upcoming Festivus activities, which will be coming up within the next few days. . . well, in just over a week.
To all Chad's Crazy Crew members, I thank you for allowing me to become a part of your team/family, and help you put together this event. I hope that the help that I've been providing from my end of things has been helpful enough. Maybe, I'll be able to help more when Icome up to Wisconsin for the summer. The thing that I'm enjoying is blogging and doing whatever I can to help promote your events.

My New Look
I can't wait to share this with everyone. I got a brand new hair style. If you've only seen me with curly, somewhat long hair (yes, Chad, I'm talking to you. . . .), forget that. I now have long, straight (still thick, though) hair. If you don't believe me, there are 2 photos on this website that will be living proof that I am actually telling the truth. The way I see it, my hair style is the "in" thing this year. If you've ever seen the TLC weekly series "Jon and Kate Plus Eight", my hair style may make you think of the older girls, Maddy and Cara, as both of them have hair that's just about the same length and color as mine.
Why do I bring this up. For one thing, Festivus, I'm imagining, should possibly have a fashion show on down the road. Different clothing fashions and hair styles can be featured during this event. It could be used as a fundraiser during the Festivus event. HMMMMM!!! Wouldn't that be something awesome to consider for future celebrations.
GO, CUBS!!! I think that my hair style is going to bring luck to me this year. I still have my current Cubs jacket and shirts, along with some new Cubs items/and old ones, too. I have a plaque on my wall that is in the shape of a baseball. I even have a sign on my room door that reads CUBS BOULEVARD. Now people know that they're entering the zone of a die-hard Chicago Cubs fan.
CCC, I can bring life to you guys. Yes, I'm the youngest member of your group; however, I strongly believe that I can bring major excitement and youth-like viberance to you guys. During Festivus and all year, I can provide the type of excitement and go-getting attitude that you guys may never have had previously. You know that inviting me to join was a wonderful thing, especilly now that I've got a brand-nw look.
The Cubs, too have new look, and I strongly feel that it's going to help them out a great deal. 2009'll actually be the year we see victory. BREWERS FANS, I THINK YOU SHOULD SERIOUSLY THINK ABOUT NOT EVEN LEAVING YOUR HOMES NOW; the Cubs are going to turn your world completely inside out this season. As we're in a bit of a drought, we're going to break free of that this year, and push to the playoffs and World Series. Chicago, prepare for a winning season!!!

Similarities Between Festivus and Baseball
Just like baseball season has a countdown, Festivus also has a timer. Yet, the difference is that baseball is in the Spring, and Festivus is in the Winter. Basebaall season, unlike Festivushas 162 games, making it draw out for the entire summer. This can get tiring, but- then again- so can taking part in, and helping with Festivus events in Wisconsin.
Festivus, like the Cubs, will be a winning chain of events. I feel like I've joined a team who's sole mssion is to create an event where, of course, our main mission is to win. We now have to work extremely hard to accomplish the many things we've got going between this very moment and the actual Festivus coming up in under 2 weeks.
All Cubs fans, please encourage your friends and family to help out with these events. We really need all the help we can get with this event. I, especially, need yoursupport in getting accomplished all I need to prior to the BIG variety of events that'll be coming up fairly soon.

Kudos to Chad Murphy-Price
I've dedicated this page from http://chadscrazycrewmembers.pbwiki.com/Kudos+To+Chad?edit=1&new=1&referer=http%3A%2F%2Fchadscrazycrewmembers.pbwiki.com%2F to give kudos to Chad Murphy-Price, to say "thanks for all the hard work you do. . . for Festivus and educating people about disability rights". Chad deserves to be recognized for being the hard-worker, inspirational person he is. When I first met Chad in 2005, I immediately knew him to be a very inspirational young man.
Kudos To Chad: Chad Murphy-Price is the type of guy who prospers to get done what he sets his mind to. He's always willing to try new things/try his best at accomplishing the task that lies ahead of him. I look up to Chad, more than just a friend. . . but an older brother. By getting to know him and spending time with him whenever I'm up in Wisconsin or if his schedule isn't so crazy busy, I can see just how much Chad really strives to be as independent as he possibly can.
Disability or not, Chad Murphy Price has the drive to want to be an inspiration to all. How many people with disabilities do you know who are willing to get up every day and go to work. . . and take on a project such as Festivus. Chad is a team player, who is never afraid to get his hands wet and messy when it comes to taking on something that is of the challenging sort. Festivus is proving to present itself as a challenge to us all. Is this challenge too much for Chad? NO!! He is ready with all his weapons at hand to take on this "mosster" known as Festivus.
During the preparations for Festivus/since I've been also involved in Chad's Crazy Crew, I've known Vhad to be a leader. He's taken on this role, more to encourage his peers to work very hard and try their best to master the skills they need to be successful in the business of 5FsFestivus. Only being a member of this team for a short time, I'm already learning a lot from Chadderbox/Chaddallac (Chad Murphy-Price) already.

About my wiki
This wiki is in honor of Chad Murphy-Price. I'm putting this online book together to honor the man who is the true meaning of Festivus. Festivus is to be a happy time, where everyone can be themselves. . . and, for a few days- really lose themselves in the excitement of the celebration.
Yet, this online book is also about a club known as Chad's Crazy Crew. Chad's Crazy Crew is full of interesting people- many who have very silly attributes, which make them who they are. This wiki is also to give appreciation to them.
Finally, this wiki is to promote Festivus. Festivus is a holiday based on an episode of "Seinfeld". Lots of exciting things take place, and you can get the entire schedule at www.festivus.webs.com. Festivus is a party-like celebration that will be a lot of fun.

Let Me Just Say!!!
Hi. My name is Nico Echols. I'd like to welcome everyone to chadscrazycrewmembers.wiki.com. This is a collaborative site in which multiple users can create a page. Pages can be about Chad, Festivus, all things Festivus-related, or even about Chad's Crazy Crew. You can even put videos of Chad on this website. Anything goes. . . have fun with me in making Festivus the best and biggest this year.
This is a fun-loving group who enjoys hanging out. CCC also works to promote special events, such as 5Fs Festivus. CCC is actually helping with the event. Festivus probably wouldn't be anything without Chad and CCC working together to put on such a massive celebration. It's a group effort, which is going to involve a lot of people working together to make bsolute sure that this event is the biggest and best Southern Wisconsin has ever seen in the history of Festivus. Chad's Crazy Crew is the #1 reason why I think Festivus is going to go so extraordinally well this year. I've just recently become a member of CCC, and I'm enjoying it- though I can't come up to Wisconsin untill this summer.
Nothing Will Stand in the Way of Festivus
In response to a blog post from my friend, Chad Murphy Price. . .
I had a similar experience yesterday, as far as being told surgery would help me. See, I have a callasse on my right ankle that keeps reappearing, but doesn't totally heal. The doctor told me that the true method for removing all of the callasse is through a surgical procedure.
Reflecting back on the surgeries that I can remember, I definitely rember that I was in a ton of pain, and incapacitated for two months- with three weeks of painful in-hospital rehab following the 2nd procedure.
The nurses here at the Mary Bryant Home, myspelf, and my mom all feel that this is really not worth any of the struggle and pain. My mom doesn't want me to have to go through the painful recovery all over again, and my parients and friends don't want to see me have to go through any of that pain all over again- either.
I'd much rather spend my time helping out with all the Festivities of Festivus. I've been helping for a few weeks now, and I don't want to have to give up this activity that I love, just for a surgical procedure that could make walking more difficult than it is now- or maybe cause me to never be able to walk again. My life is here in the land of Festivus, where I belong. Nothing is going to change that.

My mom doesn't want me to have to go through the painful recovery all over again, and my parients and friends don't want to see me have to go through any of that pain all over again- either.
I'd much rather spend my time helping out with all the Festivities of Festivus. I've been helping for a few weeks now, and I don't want to have to give up this activity that I love, just for a surgical procedure that could make walking more difficult than it is now- or maybe cause me to never be able to walk again. My life is here in the land of Festivus, where I belong. Nothing is going to change that.

Chad And I Talk Festivus, Fundraising, and about Chad's Crazy Crew
Hi-
I had an awesome time yesterday with the Chadderbox, talking about Festivus and his upcoming fundraisers to help him get a new wheelchair, since the state of Wisconsin is unwilling to help him with that process. Watch my amazing interview on Facebook. Go to http://www.facebook.com/notes.php?drafts&id=197001582#/video/video.php?v=45302224212. Enjoy!!!
Won't you take a moment to sign up for my blog "Festivus" at http://nico-festivus.blogspot.com/? The URL to my blog is http://nico-festivus.blogspot.com/. Please visit my blog frequently for updates.
You get to see what I think about Festivus, as well as being a member of the team that's in charge of In the video, Chad and I also talk about what I think about being a member of Chad's Crazy Crew.
Also, check out Chad's blog at http://chadderboxchats.blogspot.com/. I hope you will enjoy what we both have to say about Festivus. Our viewpoints might sound repeated; however, we've got two completely different opinions about all the stuff we'll be working on this year. It's going to be a major under-taking, but Chad and I are definitely up for any challenges that might come our direction at any time.

Welcome To A New Experience
Welcome to another chapter in my crazy, mixed up life. This particular chapter in my life, I should mention is much more positive than my former experiences. www.festivus.webs.com is the URL to the event that I'm helping with. I've only been working at this for a while; however, I feel like I've been doing this for a very long time.
Really, this is an awesome experience for me. I think I'm going to really like helping with this major event. Sure, I might not be in Wisconsin right now; however, I can help out via instant messaging, e-mails, Skype messenger, and many other ways of communication from here in Springfield, Illinois. What a wonderful feeling it is to be a part of something huge.
Feel free to subscribe to my blog; post entries to the entry I've written. Working together, using positive feedback- we can make Festivus a positive event for everyone who may participate or attend the many events that will take place during the three-day celebration in Wisconsin.
