MAY 10th
« on: April 26, 2012, 10:46:30 PM »
We need our very own May day, to celebrate the resurgence of our forum family I would like to see how many members we can get to log in at say 8PM East Coast time.  Say a word of thanks to Rick and all his go to moderators.
What say you of forum lore?

Umm, I was kinda pulling my hair out at the time. Last thing I need now is a proposed surge in server usage on/about May 10 ;)

How about:
1) Keep spreading the word. Invite a prospect to "just take a look" at the forum.
2) Anniversary usually calls for a party, maybe a delayed one? I'm thinking group ride, AKA a rally someplace.

A day that will live in infamy......I really don't want to remember it.  Certainly not a cause to celebrate IMHO.  I may light a candle but that's it.  So much data lost... :'(

Not the loss, I would celebrate all the effort to rebuild and the ability to run such a diverse forum.  Heck, they even let martini drinkers move things 8)  Like the Phoenix, we have risen from the ashes.

Great idea.
I understand about the loss of data etc but we didn't loose the great group of folks that visit this forum.
Heck, I haven't even posted a thread on the other side as I like this forum heaps better  ;D ;D

We could all hoist a mug of our fav adult beverage and say a toast to all those lost posts that now live in oblivion?

Well if it is a scheduled ride here in Ohio, It will definatly rain to beat the band.
That is just the way its here in the state that is round on the ends and HI in the middle.
Ride safer all,

Why did we have to run for cover with the promise of a brave new world unfold beneath the clear blue sky ?

I'd say we all host a martini but rumor has it someone didn't check the olive for a pit, choked, and hit a super secret key stroke and crashed the whole shebang 8)  Rumor also has it that is why he wears armor knowadays :o
