However, not quite everyone is back yet. I have to update ALL of the current membership files. It's a long process, but should be done in a few hours. |

I sincerely apologize and did not intend to flip ANY birds to anyone! (And I can't go back to edit it!)
That'll teach me to be typing and talking on the phone at the same time. Maybe I clicked the wrong image, I dunno.
Seriously, sorry again. (I'm quite embarrassed.) |

I just wanted to thank Gallerinski again for pm'ing me to let me know. He correctly presumed that I had not meant to post something like that. And he was quite tactful (seriously) with his message.
So thanks again Dave.
I think I need a bigger fork for this humble pie. |

Please pass along my gratitude to the membership of your site in France. I received many emails from those who obviously communicate on that site, but lurk here. It was obvious that some took extra time in translation to ensure I "got the message" and understood it. I not only appreciated the messages, but the time they took to craft those messages. Most were from people I did not know, and I doubt ever even posted on this site.
In fact I received a lot of messages like this from around the world. It really supported the notions of what I have been basing only on traffic and this is... The MAJORITY of those who use, visit and are entertained by the Ovation FanClub, do not ever post. In fact, those of us that do post, are in the extreme minority.
We need to remind ourselves of that more often. |

BTW, what was the over-under on how many guitars TJ bought and sold during our hiatus?
Peace Ovation Brothers and Sisters! |

hey now... Weaser, considering where you and I are from, Patch is definitely a "downstater". :D
Actually, I don't care where Patch is from. All I know is that he sold me my beautiful 02 Collectors, which I enjoy immensely.
And I'm glad that the OFC is up and running again.
