History repeats itself. This is showing signs of another blunder. I raised hell then and got labeled a trouble maker. Everything waited on RD to show back up. If the BOD doesn't step up and get on the same page, the BBT is not going to happen. Brock didn't do anything about the blunder and my guess is he doesn't know what to do now. No, I didn't vote for him! RD, offered up the info when he announced he wasn't running for president again. Who got that info?If it's just going to be a meet and greet then it's simple. Everyone's on their own and you don't have to worry about the tax exempt part of handling the money. But, there will be no shirts, pins or meal. Personally I couldn't tell you where any of my past pins and shirts are.Who is the vice prez? Gabe? I didn't vote for Brock because I thought it was a bad idea to have the prez. as the board administrator also. That's just to much stroke in one pen. The reality of that danger has already surfaced. You can ban me too Brock if you wish.Will the BOD please step up, identify themselves, and tell Brock what you are going to do for a BBT.I know Randy (Txcajun) is a board member and I'm guessing Snack err Snake (John) is one. RD, has very valuble input. Damn good start. I assume the BOD still has it's private board to communicate on. Like RD said many months ago, we just need a rally coordinator. I nominate Randy.Back to my corner and the silent majority.Dusty

I nominate Randy.Back to my corner and the silent majority.DustyFirst of all, I take offense to two comments here. One about the blunder. I had no part in that so I'm not real sure what exactly it is you wanted me to do. That was a member driven rally/meet and it worked out well from what I hear.Second, is the "danger" of me being the administrator and the pres. What exactly has surfaced with me being both? There has been one banning in the last week and it was an administrative (word edit 2/12) driven decision. You have no idea what was going on behind it either. Specifics will not be brought up, nor will the member that was banned (who was released last night) be mentioned. Everything I do on the board I TRY and do for the good of the group. Obviously, I can't please everyone.Moving on, I've had some personal issues so my role as a Pres have been sorry at best. I recognize this and take full responsibility. This board and many of it's members are like family to me, but my blood family come first. I managed to squeeze in some meet and greet help for Dallas and buy another sport bike that I've wanted, but my free time has been otherwise limited.Things are moving now with BBT. We could have used the last 2 months to get some more organization, but we are where we are. Geri and Randy have grabbed the reins and the rest of us are falling in line. I commend her for kicking us in the asset to get this rolling.
Just a thought here....why is a discussion like this being carried-on in the General thread? Sure seems like to me that a prospective member would be less than excited by all this.

I'm not crazy! I'll have you know my Mom, my Dad's sister, is very proud of me and thinks I'm a dang genius.

I made a small edit due to a pm I received.
