I'm Here!!

I just subscribed to Kitelife! I am sitting in the Harbor Inn Motel in Brookings, OR. Attended the SOKF this last weekend and had a great time. There were some fantastic flyers on the field. Saturday was a bit damp, but Sunday shaped up really well!

Hey Tucson Bill,

Welcome on board!! But have you ever heard of the term, "A day late and a dollar short!"??

Well, you might not be a "dollar short" but you are a "day late"!

"RAZOR" picked up my numbers and beat you out by a post or two! Sorry Bill, but now your odds are about the same as every one else! I do wish you the best of luck though! Well, the best of luck just behind the "best of luck" is wished RAZOR...heehee!

"Lady LUCK"...is our master!! heehee!

Keep It Up!

You're right kjm, all I can do is apologize... While it's not mean-spirited, you are right.

Offending posts obliterated.

I'm a dumb human like anyone else, such feedback is always received with open ears.

I hope you'll stick around and help us stay on course.

[John Barresi]

BTW, warmest welcome to Bill and Razor.

I guess I'll just say good-bye. Lately, it seems the conversations deteriorate into either sexual innuendo or degrading comments about woman. It's one thing to poke some fun and I have done it too but the comments have gone beyond fun.

Someone lately was wondering why there weren't more woman in kiting? Well, think about it.

Enjoy your "little boys" club.

I missed the offending posts, so this is part conjecture...

Duane and I have similar mindsets - often we like to challenge people's set ideas. As a result, we sometimes overstep what is appropriate for a particular forum.

I know I speak for Duane ... reminds me of a United Way committee meeting when the chairperson (lady) said "I know I speak for Howard...", and I replied I'd rather speak for myself. Next thing I knew, I was nominated for President of the United Way chapter. So, I will not speak for Duane.

Anyway, if you want to break up an "Old Boys Club", join it. That's the nice thing about forums - you can invite yourself in. John does a great job of keeping things close to topic, and not offensive, yet allowing a lot of banter.

Waiting to hear your voice again, PhotoMom.
