[Bob of the Lake]

I'm a homebrewer so brew ales, porters, and stouts every few weekends, and enjoy visiting (and touring) craft breweries. I also love early music so attend concerts by early music performers such as Paul O'Dell or Piffaro.

so Bob, when is your stout visiting Texas?

Ah, I would truly love to visit Texas (with my stout, of course) but I live on the East Coast so it's a bit of a trip. I certainly hope to some day, though!

I'm informed it was abducted but, still existing in a hidden area.   

Who knows, it may return one day by popular demand ?   

Well I enjoyed reading it from time to time, and exploring a few of those links.  Thank-you for posting it while we could all see it!

It was my pleasure to share it.   I understand some complaints were the cause of its sudden relocation to the hidden twilight zone of,  Adminism.

What was there to complain about?  
I guess there wasn't enough beer in it.

Mostly, unknown would be the answer.  Perhaps the subject matter was an unpublished taboo but no religion or politics agenda; mostly science and global news.  

There was some indication that there was not adequate discussion on the topic.  View hit numbers (over 1200) didn't seem to help save it.  

Could be that some would attempt to enforce their own belief systems by complaint.  The Gods forbid that we may learn something new.

It is my sincere hope that lack of discussion on the Castle of the Day thread does not cause a similar result.  I enjoy and view it often, if not daily.

If there isn't adequate discussion in a thread, its apparently equated to a private blog ..... or something to that effect as I understood the message.  

An appeal of the decision has not been answered . . .  yet.      

[DonaCatalina]

You know, I have tried to discourage discussion on the actual castle thread to keep it from becoming too unwieldy. That is why there is a separate thread for feedback.
I didn't realize that there were so many unwritten rules.

But back on topic;
My interests outside of fair are historical research on ancient cultures like the Halstatt, La Tene, Golasecca and others.
I also enjoy gourmet cooking even on my charcoal grill.
And of course TRAINS.

[Celtic Lady]

Outside of faire I enjoy taking photos. I don't do it as often as I'd like though. I also enjoy helping my husband while he is making candles. Horses particularly Arabians have been my passion since I was three. Trail riding, taking lessons, and showing were a big part of my life... hopefully soon they will be again. One important interest I have living with Multiple Sclerosis. It's a challenge some days and finding ways to cope/make things easier to do is always a learning experience.

I am a huge Formula One fan.  Ferrari is my team!  I've got my seat, tickets and accomodations lined up for the first race in Austin and I've been to Montreal for the Canadian Grand Prix in 06 and 07.
FORZA FERRARI!
