Hopefully the new owner will make some changes and initiate a new forum about the negative trauma that all the dogs are causing here in TV..As you know this has been the theme of my many posts and I would like to apologize to start off on the right foot......
Also a new rule that states if you post over 5000 hits , you have to state something of value..I may have overstated myself a little and hopefully didn't hurt anyones feelings.........and the term " Boy Howdy" although very endearing is not unusual to someone born in Missouri....although it does bring back a lot of memories of my childhood.....also I would like to apologize for the remarks I made about Chels regarding her mouthwash , which was unkind and I apologize.....So as you can see I have pondered this calamity looking for the bright side for sometime for something to be excited about , Today I think I have found it.............

THEY'LL BE TAKING THEIR DOGS WITH THEM.....

GOOD LUCK GUYS ITS BEEN FUN....

Nitehawk, you have a good point. We probably do get carried away at times! I'm not part of the "inner circle", and I don't have over 5,000 posts. But I am good friends with some of the posters, so I guess I'm an offender, saying personal things occasionally.

I do find it annoying to click on a thread about Street-Legal Golf Carts and find ten posts about the price of asparagus, or who lives in Idaho. But I figure I can always quickly skip through whatever posts don't interest me.

Overall I think we've got a very congenial group that try hard to be polite and inclusive. This particular thread is of a personal nature cuz we're saying goodbye to the Big Guys, which brings back memories. I remember meeting Jan (Talkhost) and his wife way back in 2007 at one of our first TOTV meetings. I bet that Jan still has a picture of the group. Oh darn, there I go again!
