Okay, only two days left of Festival. So I better say this now before sobriety sets in.
We got this big old Bald guy. He's known as BlackFox which is wierd as he's actually very, dang pastey White. Geek, Albino White..., 3D L White.... Yeah, the Bald Guy's ego is so big, its a wonder he can make it through the door. But Give the Man his Props!!! This Site, The Polly Dodger, my new friends who are so cool its like we been hanging for years, All the great weekends I've just had. Dudes, Steve K. was a major reason all that cool stuff happened!! A lot of pieces of the puzzle had always been there on the table. BlackFox put the pieces together. Steve's spent a lot of time and money out of his own pocket. Many of us have benefitted from that. So I would like,' To show mine and anybody else who would like to demonstrate their appreciation. To assemble as a group, knock back a few Ciders, and sing BF's songs! Woot! Woot!

Uncle Cravan... first I want to say that never before have me and my red hair been compared to a flaming pumpkin... I will have to ponder that one a bit...
Then, for the rest... I am glad someone finally said it. Fox needs to know how much we appreciate all that he has done for us. To some of us, this is the very first time ever we have felt a part of something, and what better to be a part of than a group of friends, right?
Fox, you gave us a chance to meet people we may otherwise have missed out on, a chance to learn to love faire with all its intricasies... You are appreciated and loved. Thank You!

So I would like,' To show mine and anybody else who would like to demonstrate their appreciation. To assemble as a group, knock back a few Ciders, and sing BF's songs! Woot! Woot! Dude. Men don't make me teer up. you just did. I don't know what to say. All I did was make a place for folks like all of us to get together and talk faire. A place where we could be "at faire" even in the off-season. A spot I created selfishly, because I wanted people who loved MDRF like I do to share it. . . to tell their experiences and share pictures and events. . . so we can re-live MDRF through others' memories. It was a selfish act on my part to make all this. . . but then you folks showed how much love a thing like a Renfaire could give. So I got into it more and made a bulletin board to go with a one-page site. . .then a 10-page site. . .and spin-offs into the Polly Dodger and O'Girthy Boys. . . it's because of me that I started it. . . but it's because of YOU that I won't give up on it. I showed that at the beginning of the season when I was kinda' underminded by some folks to stop what I was doing. . . if you think about it. . . that stop only lasted THREE HOURS. . . I came to my senses and everything was back up. The re-built bulletin board is better organized, moderated, and maintained than ever before. It was a wake up call, not a loss. . . we're passed the original count of posts that took a year . . .in less than three months. .. why?. . . because of all of you. It's not FRIEND of the Maryland Renaissance Festival. . .it's friendS. You all make it work. . . I just guide you like some D&D dungeon master. . . that's all I really am. I love doing it. Because of the hard times that have hit me, I've been forced to hint (beg) for financial help, but it comes in droves. You folks LOVE this place and it's yours. We're having a dinner Saturday night and I plan to call out all the folks who've kept us going from directors like Sandman, Amras, Chelle, and Annabelle to trooper who are ALWAYS there in chat like Mr. Green (Chris) and Joelle, and Lady Neysa. . . and to folks like Will Paisley and a few others who chime in when we say something about faire that just isn't right. I love you all for all the positive and the negatives. We pull posts that don't work toward our goal of MDRF friendship and we add to posts that just make us all friendly (although I'll never recover from being compared to dead Telly Savalis). So when we get together Saturday night at the event Annabelle and I have planned. . . . please be vocal and thank those folks who make this place run. Folks like Scribbles who brings the tastiest food to the table. . . and Captain Steven Ravenwolves who can sing "Paradise by the dashboard light" without either a cuecard or growing up in a park-n-ride in the late 1970s. YOU fill out the body of all of this. . . I just sketch out skeleton.

..And the O'Girthy Boys had better be there leading! OK. . .here's the gauntlet I lay down. . . Ravenwolves. . .get a sitter for January 19 because both of you MUST come to our after-holidays par-tay at the generous house of the Sandman. If we get over 30 members including at least 2 O'Danny Girls, 1 fight school member, and 1 Pyrates Royale member to come to the par-tay. . . not ONLY will I provide an all-new-updated MDRF Jeopardy Game (a huge hit from this past par-tay). . but I PROMISE. . . . . Percy and Murphy O'Girthy will do a LIVE show with jokes, songs, MDRF 2005 memories and more. Is that a DEAL?
