I already told the people on the other board that I go to that I will be a little bit late for chat this Saturday.As usually since my friend got all these extra roles I could say one thing and no one could even ecknowledge that I said something yet she could say the EXACT SAME THING and people act as if the someone like the Queen of England has spoken or something.Am I jealous? No,I'd just like a little ecknowledgement for what I do.I know it isn't much but still.Does that make since? Ever since my friend got these roles she acts like she's starred with Bette Midler or done a duet with Olivia Newton-John.I should be happy for her.I was happy when I heard she was working with Shia Labouf but after she rubs it in for so long it gets old.Sorry I'm just mad and upset.

Good news and bad news folks! We were invited out to play cards with our neighbors so I won't be able to attend the basement party tonight. Shoot, I was all set for it too!
I may just surprise all of you and make an appearance.
Enjoy!

I'll have to leave at 10 or so but if I happen to stay here later I've already talked with my friend and she was very understanding about it.

What a great basement party.. and what a success. Last nights Basement Party (Party #6) has the distinction of being our most successful (so far). Here are a few stats... The day of the Basement Party (November 17, 2007) we had a total of 533 people visit the forum. With 138 of those people actually having visited the party as it was going. We had a maximum of 34 people online at one time. We also had a total of 9 people register as a result of the basement... not all of those 9 participated in the party... the newbies to participate are captstright, trekker1 and karenforever. Our average daily visitors generally totals about 100 people. Our average daily visitors went down when the main The Carpenters Online web site was closed down earlier this year. Our second most successful Basement Party was in July 2005 when we had guest Palma Pascale. This party attracted 328 people with 84 actually having visited while it was in progress. We had a total of 3 people register as a result of this particular party. With thecopey being the only newbie to participate. Back when this party happened we were averaging a total of 200 visitors a day on a regular day. Thank you to all for participating in the Basement Party and for helping it to be a great success. I really enjoyed myself. |

This last basement party was really a lot of fun. I was able to participate in it for the first two hours, then it was on to other commitments. We had a fun time, and shared a lot of good information - like, I found out how an egg tart is made in Hong Kong! Always something fun. Thanks, Rick - for arranging the basement party, and for making sure so many knew about it. I don't know how many of the folks I emailed actually made it (Dave and I did discuss it), nevertheless, it was good fun. I spoke with Leo who wanted to join us, but it was 1a.m. when we started, in London - and Leo has just started a new job, and had a promotion already - so, he was exhausted, and couldn't join in this time. He hopes to in the future. Rick, you continue to amaze me at your energy, and with your guest rosters for our basement parties. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Tim  |
