• We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

We thoroughly enjoyed the festivities! Darthmord's kids were extremely well-behaved. The food and service were excellent!

Dutch, thanks for setting everything up.

Dan, do not trivialize this! The NPD has demonstrated a pattern of abuse with you, Chet, the Hula Hoop Lady, and even caused a group of other folks to openly complain about NPD behavior at a City Council meeting.

I'm having trouble with the picx, so I posted them (are they showing up on your end?) and included code links to them. Hope you can view them!

Links are not active & copy & paste doesn't work either.

It was my pleasure, and I had a great time. I think the head count was 21. Those of you who were there before remember Tiffany was our server then, and was aware of OCDO and Dan's circumstances. She was a delight again this time, and told some of us on the way out to "Keep up the good work!" Maybe Freemason should be on our regulars list, and we should ask for her.

Thank you too, for your contributions when I passed the hat around. I didn't realize this, but the Danbus Fund didn't cover all his expenses and he is still left with a significant balance to pay back. The Danbus Fund is still open as far as I know.....

Trying again. Check above. I had them linked from "My Pix Place" at Verizon and it obviously doesn't like to be used as a third-party file host.

They are now linked elsewhere and should show up.

I hope.:banghead:

Thanks!

Good behavior in public is one of those things I remember my grandparents harping on when I was a kid. I intend on keeping that tradition alive. I'll also let my eldest daughter (Michelle) know she receivedcompliments on her behavior.

It's good to know that "please" and "thank you" aren't completely absent from the vernacular of today's youth.

Even your littl'un was well-mannered and respectful... all things considered for a littl'un, and whatnot!:D

Don't know how some are viewing these. :(

I still find the link inactive and copy & paste gets me a "Page not available" message.

When I looked at this thread on my computer at home, the pictures came up in the thread just fine. Here at work, I can't see them, nor can I copy/paste the links. So it may just have something to do with the connection you're using to get here.

Fantastic that y'all had a celebration for Dan.

Still trying to understand why people don't know that Photobucket is the ONLY reliable photo-hosting service if you want to post pics to gun boards.
