Be Like Jabronisaur Day II (July 16, 2011) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhUOv9VGhnc#) *
In memory of Tim Marks, Be Like Jabronisaur Day (July 16, 2011) CONTINUES! to pay tribute to our homie Jabronisaur by Doing Good Deeds, Spreading Love, Being Positive~ just like he was in real life and online at JPHiP.com
See last year's thread. (http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=25679.0)
We lost Jabronisaur two years ago on July 16, 2009 (http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=19712.0) - right after our successful meet up at Anime Expo, where JPHiP pimped like no other, gathering 30+ in a room at a time, meeting dozens more along the way. At the forefront, was Jabronisaur whom as a member of the Crack Staff, broke down barriers and mingled with fans from all over the world and net - making them feel like family. He exemplified what it was to be a HiPster, and made us so proud he was just one of our homies.
WERD IS BOND. And prove to Jab he will never be forgotten by paying tribute to everything he stands for!! :jphip:
The When & How You start July 16, 2011, 12 AM your time. Do as many Good Deeds, Acts of Love and Positivity towards your fellow HiPsters, friends, family, and random strangers as possible! Post about it in this thread and everywhere to help keep the "Be Like Jabronisaur Day" movement going!
It doesn't matter how big or small. Examples can be like praising someones thread or post with constructive feedback, being nice in IRC, helping an old lady with the door, giving time to charity, making people feel part of the community by asking them how they are - stuff Jabronisaur did in his every day life.
Our goal is to have the spirit of Jabronisaur live on forever with every good deed we do, in a positive loving action and for this to be an annual JPHiP Event.
This year. I add a twist:
I CHALLENGE HiPSTAZ TO REACH 1,000 GOOD DEEDS BY JULY 16th FOR JAB (http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=25710.120)!
WHO IS DOWN!? We made a thread inspired by Be A Jab day in HiP Joint to challenge one another....now let us gather our collective POSITIVE ENERGY and LIVE UP TO THE LEGEND!! Visit http://jphip.com/jabronisaur to learn about THE MAN!
OUR HOMEBOY JABRONISAUR, FOREVER REMEMBERED.

eta: speaking to Jab's Mom on the phone, on July 12, 2011....she sends this message to :hipheart:
Subject: Fw: Thank you to JPHiP
I wrote this last year, I was a wreck. I thought I had sent it but later found it still in my draft folder. I held onto it because time has not changed much for me, it still feels like he should be here. It still is not real. I have things of his that I don’t know what to do with. I know that it will get better but for now it still hurts more than I can say. God Bless you all for your friendship and love for Tim. Thanks for keeping his memory alive. He would be so proud but he would say he doesn’t deserve it he was a very humble man with such a sweet spirit. Thanks again.

A Great Big thank you to daigong @JPHiP.com for the gourmet cookies he sent. The message on the package "Missing you every day Tim." "Jabronisaur lives on through JPHiP.com. We'll make you proud!" I didn't see this mentioned in the good deeds done (ie; sent cookies to Tim's family in remembrance).
These are my thoughts. ( I just think that Tim would have been on those cookies like white on rice.) What an incredibly thoughtful thing to do.
I could not stop crying as I read the messages one after the other. I will treasure these tributes from each of you for a very long time. I listened all day Friday and into the night to the replay of his shows. It was like a visit with him. So sweet and sad its so hard to believe he is gone. But we will see him again.
A lot of the comments ended with "wherever you are..." Tim was a Christian, he believed in Jesus and accepted Him as his Savior, because of that his sins were forgiven; past, present and future. Tim did not die, his spirit went to heaven. We believe this because the Bible says; "to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord." So we know that he is in heaven and we will see him again.

Thank yous to The Crack Staff - Masa, shirenu, lollipopgirl, tamatron - and kuno_thunder for the brainstorming. We got inspiration from Jaeson Ma's 365 Days of Love (http://jaesonma.com/) and Amy Crawford's Good Deed Day (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Good-Deed-Day-June-11th/295456318919?v=wall#!/pages/Good-Deed-Day-June-11th/295456318919?v=info), and just the general need to bring a day to honor Jab in the most positive way.
:hipheart:
One Love.
The JPH!P Crack Staff
