You know, I vaguely remember that name. Lurkers can join as long as they
meet the requirements.
Anyway, out of deference to Adam (who is surely jealous he can't join) I'll
try to at least slow down these OT postings.
If you fit the basic three requirements, you are in. You know who you are.
I think I can fairly add that if you were a member of the list when it was
on HEARN then you are granted a temporary membership, subject to club
approval.
The current exceptions (i.e. probationary memberships, as valid as a full
membership but is subject to revocation by vote of the Resort) currently
granted are Robert Watkins, Lady Jestyr (since we need at least one woman
there to ask our stupid male questions about other women, and she doesn't
respect us as is, so there's nothing to lose...) and I think we can even
admit Gurth to the club. He's a bit of a youngin', but he's been on the
lists far too long to not be a respected elder. And this weekend I search
the logs for his name...
BTW, MC23, it wan't WC Fields that commented he wouldn't want to join any
club that would have him for a member, that would be Groucho Marx. Or at
least that's the apocryphal story.
Other folks, such as Wymry and that fellow (forgot his name, sorry) who
volunteered to bartend can have partime jobs as they wish. In return we'll
provide protection for you from carps of all size, shapes and ages.
As for the rest of you, I'm afraid you'll just have to make due with
Gurth's stairs. Just don't trash his entire house when he decides to lay
about by the pool or let MC23 teach him about Rock'em Sock'em Robots...
