hello all!

Dan, as Treasurer of the Wreck, it is my duty to inform you of your monthly dues. They must be paid on time or your posts will be deleted within the hour. Hang on to your two cents, as you'll need them. If you'd care to prepay for an entire year, you'll receive a courtesy discount and a free subscription to "Plans JOAT Culled off the 'Net". That is a $49.95 value, FREE with your pre-paid dues.

Send a check or money order in the amount of $19.95 for the first month, or to receive your free gift subscription, send $199.00 for a year's dues (a savings of $40.40!) to:

Bay Area Dave San Jose, CA

PS: Be sure to send US currency; I can't spend your funny money here! :)

Hi, Dan.....

uh huh. sure you are.... ; ^ )

this is the wreck, aka rec.woodworking, and it's located in a virtual place called usenet. If you didn't know that yet, how'd you get here?

oh, and welcome. Bridger

where what?

we already established that you are in (or at least from) Canada

where is usenet? it's a virtual place. it's physical location is nothing more than a collection of bits of data on hard drives spread all across this planet (sol3 aka earth) tied together by a handfull of protocols. it isn't a "place" in the sense that your living room is.

:) sure thing, Dan, but after 90 days, I need you to send a notarized doctor's excuse, ok?

Dan -

This is the rec.woodworking newsgroup, and it is available through your internet service or under "Groups" in Google. But you have to beware, as Dave is a KNOWN rip. Don't send him the $199.00!! The actual rate is only $125, and frankly, I'm surprised that Dave is STILL trying to get away with this. With the monitoring bracelet and home arrest, you'd think he had more sense.

Y'all just send the money to ME, and I'll be sure that everything is okay.

Your new best friend,

John Moorhead

Not only can Dan take it , It appears that he can dish it out also, I guess he'll fit in When does that new membership voting take place again ???

Know me now?

P.S. My therapist would love to know what you figure out....

Last week.

You missed it again!!!!!

Yo Dan,

Welcome to the wreck as it's alovingly known around here. Post on topic and don't let these guys give you any lip and you'll get along just great in here!

ps: the newsgroup is rec.woodworking and it's located on usenet....if you mean "where are the MEMBERS located," the answer is: no place specific, all over the world, even as far off as Delaware! oooooooh!! =)

Yea, but it appears that this one catches on quick. You had better polish up your various shenanigans.

Welcome Dan! As for where the 'Wreck' is located, this is Usenet - unlike various private forums around the web, this on is located at no specific location - it exists on servers spread around the world, not at one specific machine/location.

Blasphemy!

Dan,

By now you must have realized that Bay Area Dave is an idiot. I suggest you go to the following address and do a search for "bay area dave"

He's a pussy hiding behind a modem.

Now you have got to quit hoarding all the sacrifices! Send her to me as its my turn this time to get one... You can have the next drill guage I get from Handyman Club of America instead. Deal?

The Cabal is keeping an eye on both of them.

However, as High Priest of the Woodworking Gods, I will inform you that a small sacrifice to the would be welcome. Don't try it at home, as High Priest I handle all their administrative work, so just send it along to me. Short, slight plump, brunette, human female, by preference. Don't feel obliget, this is strictly voluntary, on your part. But, you might want to consider not getting them upset.

There is no Cabal.

JOAT Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance.
