Thena,
I believe that part of our problem is that a lot of people come to this  list 
through Stan's website for the Rhodes22.  Perhaps he should post a  warning 
that this is an unofficial site kept for and by the owners and that he's  not 
responsible for the list content. Giving people fair warning and make them  
agree to the terms of the charter ought to stop a lot of the griping. It's  
almost three o'clock. Time to get the ice cubes warmed up for a cool afternoon  on 
the lake. It's going to break 100 here today. :) It should be a great  
afternoon on the SeaDoo.
 
Rummy

I could  live with that...could we keep Elle's button for sign up? (I really
like  that one)...things are already looking up!...perhaps post  Slim's
instructions "before" they sign up?...sort of an "Abandon all hope  all ye
who sign up here"....or to keep in line with the sailing theme  "argh...there
be dragons here"...

Hey Thena, that's a great idea. Change the name to Rummy's R22  Bar and
Grill.

Guys,
Just a thought here...we keep getting individuals of  taste and  refinement
showing up and thinking we appreciate their  input...we are not  what they
expected so they are disappointed or  sometimes even angry...I  think we need
to change our name from R22  list to R22 Bar and Grill...or  Krewe d'Rhodes
22...who knows, we  might even exchange recipes every once in  a while...but
the point is,  they would know before signing up that we are  not a
one-trick-pony  sort of group and if they are willing to learn how to   use
the
delete key that they might find they enjoy the  camaraderie...with  time and
patience they might even learn how to  decipher Michael's messages  without a
decoder ring and when Ed is off  his meds...ah, the joy...what do   you
think?...
Thena

Well Jack, you  might want to  think about getting used to it.

We took this list  private and made it  the way it is because we didn't 
like the topic  police..... We haven't  changed.
