Cake karma in honor of member 12131**WINNER-83v45magna**
Member 12131 (Dr. Vu, I believe, but we haven't been formally introduced) has been so very generous, that when I saw the cake that he was given by his coworkers I was inspired to honor his generosity.
So, in honor of 12131's birthday, and his generosity, I am giving away a chocolate doberge cake from Gambinos Bakery of New Orleans:
Gambinos is a great New Orleans bakery, and this is a long time family favorite. The cakes ship fine, as they are freshly baked, frozen, and shipped to arrive fresh within two days. This cake should be refrigerated upon arrival. I typically eat it cold, but you can leave it, or a slice, out to warm up if you wish. Just don't leave the whole cake out to spoil prematurely.
Rules:
1) State that you like cake, 2) Wish 12131 Happy Birthday and/or thank him for his generous Karmas; and 3) Live in the contiguous U.S.(sorry but shipping costs can be prohibitive elsewhere)
I'll let this go a few days or until interest peters out.
Happy birthday Dr. Vu!This message has been edited. Last edited by: honestlou,

In please! I like cake! My boss & our HR manager are both originally from LA, Lafayette & NO respectively & have heard them talking about these cakes. Our HR manager gets a couple king cakes a year from Radanzzo's & brings them in to the office.
Birthday & karma wishes to 12131 in their respective threads.
TX is nice & close.

Happy Birthday 12131. That's a great cake. I can almost taste it. I don't just like cake, I love it. Thanks, and I hope Dr. Vu had a great day.

I love me some cake, please add me to this karma.
Although his recent karmas have gone waaaaay beyond generous, 12131's willingness to take the time to share his knowledge, opinions, and advice via PMs is truely appreciated.

I am definitely a big fan of cake.
I am continually amazed at how 12131 one-ups himself with each new karma. Sir, you are a generous individual!
I am going to enter, as always, on behalf of the volunteers at PAWS Assistance Dogs. They do an amazing job and are so dedicated to the dogs and to our veterans. If I win, I will be presenting the cake to them in honor of Honestlou and 12131.

Honestlou is great, feeds us chocolate cake! (Old BC reference). 12131 / Dr Vu has been very generous this last year and is amazing to see. Count me in on this - haven't had one since 93'.

I like cake.
Happy birthday, 12131 or, known in my book as CSI Sigforum (I've always been impressed with his knowledge of handguns as demonstrated time and again).
Thanks for the chance.
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.
