I just like to hear from you now and then, Mr.P. I was, btw, actually disappointed in the lack of tawdriness on that one site

Hi, sorry I haven't been on here in a couple days - crazy hectic with the holidays coming up, but I would be interested in participating as well though I do not have much experience with chat rooms so everyone would have to bear with me :D

No problem Constance, glad to hear you intend to join us.

So it sounds that, of those that are interested, the 27th is good. As I had suggested earlier, I want to try for something a little earlier than 9PM EST to give our couple European members a better chance of participating. So, if you plan on participating and you have a preferred time, post it here. I'm thinking 7PM, 8PM, or 9PM EST, preferrably 7 or 8.

Looking forward to chatting with everyone.

Rose: My websites were a bit more tawdry when they were active. But these domains are now just parked with a company that pays for traffic/clicks. When I get back on my feet, I will probably put the sites back up as they were. Well, my leather site will be revamped and geared on making more mundane items as opposed to the S&M gear (although I will always make S&M gear...just too much potential fun for the types of conventions I can do!)

Thanks irishrose. I think either 7 or 8 would be fine with me.

It would have been hilarious to me if I had thought "Lemme think" who could it have been...? HEH! Yup, still making me chuckle.
Yes, Irishrose, that was me! Ha! I'm chuckling too!!

I plan to be there, depends on if my 2 year old cooperates!!

I'm sorry to report that I won't be able to make the chat scheduled for the 27th. Please trust, it can't be helped. Because I feel a definite obligation to attend, as I was the one responsible for initiating the chat, I've offered an explanation for my absence in my journal, if you're interested in knowing.

George Ricker ("garicker") has agreed to take over and will set a definite time for the chat. For those of you who don't know, George is a twice-published author, whose new book, mere atheism, was released last month. He's also a very friendly and interesting person to talk with. I hope that you all still get together, and that we have the chance to schedule another chat in the near future, so I have the opportunity to finally "meet and greet" everyone.

Since Rosemary has asked me to fill in ("take over" is a bit too strong) because she can't make it to the chat, I'll try to muddle through with everyone's help. Feel free to chime in with your suggestions.

The plan now is to have the chat on Dec. 27th. Rose had talked about scheduling it to start at 7, 8, or 9 p.m., depending upon everyone's preferences. (Note: all times are Eastern Standard Time in the U.S.)

I'm going to fix the time at 8 p.m., tentatively. If that creates problems for anyone, let us know and we'll try to negotiate a more convenient time. As I said in an earlier posting, my schedule is probably more flexible than most of the rest of you (I'm retired), so it really doesn't matter so much to me whether we start earlier or later.

I hope all of you who indicated you would participate will be able to join in. These chats can be fun. The more the merrier.

This would be 2 a m for me. If I am awake I'll join the chat but this is highly unlikely.

Not to worry, though. :)

Would you be more likely to be awake for a 7 p.m. session (I guess that would be 1 a.m. your time)? I would have no problem moving it up an hour. Anything earlier on a week night might be problematic for those on this side of the pond.

Let me know if that's helpful.
