It took me a while to find you guys! Why didn't anyone tell me y'all were gone?
I go on vacation for two weeks, I come back and... **crickets**
![]() It took me a while to pinpoint it, they sucked all the fun out of it. I noticed the Nazi-policing before I left, and I thought they'd get over it, but
when I came back it was so quiet and...strangely on-topic ALL THE TIME.

Hmm. Where's E.V.? Maybe he's on vacation too. **waits patiently**
Days later, I realize there's no Bacardi Jim either. WTF??
![]()
So I start doing some detective work and I find the thread!! I was so depressed when I saw y'all left!!
I saw the suckiness of the boards without you guys and was dismayed. I yelled "NooooOOOOO!" like Shatner's "Khhaaannnnn!"

I PMed Gables Girl and the next day she told me about this place! Then poor Robin had to answer all the PMs I sent her while I was trying to get on this
thing! I'm exhausted! Too exhausted to even look for an Avatar! But I found you! And why didn't anyone tell me about this before?! I know I was new,
but still! **hmmpff**.
**Flops down with a Margarita**

Sorry Scott! You ARE funny. I was pretty new to KBs...don't mind me. I swear I thought Vampy was still posting! I though I saw that Avatar...or maybe it was someone else with a Vamp related Avatar that threw me off.

Scott, at least you were invited to join this place! I had to "invite myself" so to speak, so I don't want to hear it! ;P
My vacation was good, Portland is an awesome city and I enjoyed the weather (rainy and cloudy) it's a nice break from sunny, windy and dusty. I also enjoyed "Powell's Books" has anyone been there? It's a book lover's paradise!! Even with my Kindle, I caved and bought four books.
That place is incredible! Four stories of books in a warehouse-size building!

No, I haven't posted there. Interesting. Powell's seems to be the place to go in Portland, and it is amazing so I can't blame anyone. I took so
many pictures of books I want to read with my phone, so I could check and see if they have them for the Kindle.

I'll have to check and see what the books are called, but I read a series of books a while back that was centered on immortals living in the Portland area.
But for the life of me, all the details elude me right now, except that one of the immortals was called Blackstone, and he owned a gourmet restaurant.

Love Powell's every time I go to Portland somehow I wind up there. The same way I'll wind up at Joseph Beth in Lexington when I go north. I love good
bookstores.
Scott was one of those that got washed up here in the tsunami that happened over there. He was the first one here after Robin set it up, I think I was second. With Harvey's refusal to allow us to say where we went it has made it difficult for people to find us. Are you sure I was talking about you BJ?????

Harvey won't let you say where you are?! Are you kidding me??
That's the most ridiculous thing I've heard in a while. Why? Is he afraid of a little competition?

BJ, Lucky Rainbow and Vamp added here to their signatures and got told to quit. Considering Leslie posted KBs on Amazon I consider it hypocrisy of the worst
kind.

Damn. Before I left on va-cay I was talking to EV (and maybe BJ too, I'm not sure) about something off topic. We were joking and then Quatromom blasted us
all, but I never followed up because I was too busy getting ready for my trip. Never in a million years would I have thought that would lead to all this.
That's why I couldn't figure it out, the thought seemed crazy. But I remember that her policing bothered me, and that those threads were most fun. the
Coin Star thread was always off topic and nobody cared.
The power went to her head!!

Welcome VMars.
I know that you believe you understand what you think I said,
but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant. R.McCloskey |

Leslie used to kid about spamming at Amazon for KBs.

Leslie's response was something to the effect of : What?? I don't know what your talking about.

Wonder who's spreading rumors about them. It's not us. We're all too busy appeasing the mixed drink gods. BJ makes constant (and most excellent)
offerings to the paper umbrella guardians.
