Is The Weather Channel sponsoring us now, or is that just a nice touch that Count de Landlubber has placed on the bottom of the screen?

I don't know but it sure makes an already too slow modem (I'm real spoiled with a T1 at work) just hang. It's been a struggle today.

ETA: but I notice it is not particularly warm for Lunarlady's arrival. Hope it warms up tomorrow.

I am quite sure that the Weather Channel is not sponsoring the site. I noticed it a few days ago.

Oops! Sorry I missed this one.

The Weather Channel thingy is gone to weather thingy land.

Several reported the slow download.

Sponsor? I'm open for suggestions!

Crank, how much does it cost for this board? And who is paying it? If it is coming out of personal pockets here I might cover it for a while. PM me.

I can tell you from past experience that the cost is in the range of 15-17 bucks a month and our buddy, Crank, is paying it.

I think Coastal is in cahoots. The numbers 15 and 17 must be the trigger words.
I toss my cookies for Disney.

I wonder what inspired this new Disney T-shirt? "I'm right. You're wrong. Any Questions?"

Robin, according to Crank, everything is Coastal's fault. Unless it goes right, then it is Crank who saved the day.

Just stating the facts as they have been told to me. I was not there, and can not be held responsible for anything.

I actually think your Sgt. Shultz imitation sucked, Crank.

It should be "I see noTHING.' Emphasis should clearly be on the last part of the word nothing. Geesh!

Thanks Robey and thanks to all the other offers!

The only way I would agree to do this is if any excess proceeds be donated to a worthy cause determined by this group AND be donated in the name of Walter Elias Disney.

Too bad they're not still selling stones at WDW! Wouldn't it be great for Common Ground to have one?

We have two!

Yeah, but we could put a picture of the Stickey Mickey on one of the headstones in the graveyard at Epcot!
