Guess while the forum is down I'll update my website.
I've had a good weekend ... went hiking all day yesterday ... now I'm cleaning (oh the fun!)
Today became a cleaning day for me too. Will be nice to be able to park my car in the garage again without having to worry about running into things.
Checking out our temporary home for now. Not bad ! Good people in here ! :) :-*
Good luck John, and everyone else on getting us back home again.
The crew of The Lusty Lady offers to blast the darn virus causer/hacker out of the water if you be needing us ! ;
There will be rum and ale on board for John, DB, if they need it !
Seriously guys, I wish you both good luck, on getting us back on our feet again .

Waiting eagerly for the 16th...heading up for Pirate weekend (not looking forward to the awaiting drama!)...turns out there's going to be a whole lot of people there that I know locally to Houston and locally to Faire so it'll be a nice weekend. I wonder whom I need to appease to get a cold snap to come through Waxahachie just in time for May 17th??
Not again >:(
I noticed the long script at 4:30
What on earth are you doing UP at that hour!? It's tough for me to get up this early ... and it's for work online posting duties

Oh my that sounds great! I'm excited to see all the new things, including the cast's new costumes!
*Climbs on board the life raft! Wrings out dripping wet gown and adjusts crown. Waves magick wand and a cask of Rum appreas!*
I think we might need this!
Glad to be here! There seem to be many sharks in the waters lately!
Looking forward to Scarby this weekend!
Row, Row , Row your boat gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily merrily merrily, life is but a dream.
I dunno...just popped into my mind.
This is getting old. It's really hard to abide by the TOS and not post anything hateful or vulgar! I wish the hackers would channel their energy into something productive.
Thank you to the powers that be for providing the "life raft".
First I get on about 5am, can't sleep and I see the script, then later this am I hear my Bozzie barking madly at something and he isn't letting up, it was the MOM GET OVER HER NOW bark, yippers...a snake a big black one with pink underbelly. Not even the snake site can tell me what it was. OY Veah! When I went back to take a pix it was gone. When I checked in to see about the forum, we have a life-raft, ok seems it'll all get taken care of! ;)
again? really?
honestly now, are we being attacked by a bunch of school kids who just ended the school year and have nothing better to do then bring down the same forum over and over?
Well I look forward to seein' you/meeting at Scarborough on the 17th, Aicha! I declare there be no drama for anyone as the 16th is my birthday and I want everyone happy at my birthday toast on Saturday!
I'm quite excited to see you on Saturday, Queen Bonnie! Who are you coming to faire with this weekend?
This is getting ridiculous already. Don't yah wish it was possible to trace back where the hack came from, and mess around with what they think is important to them?
You'd think that they would be playing Grand Theft Auto IV or something... -sigh- That's ok... what goes around comes around.
Wow, this new site is like visiting your grandmother.
It's nice and it has cookies and milk but you know that at the end of the day, you want to be sleeping in your own bed!

Fortunately, it doesn't smell like gardenias. :D
I'd like to believe that Karma, or the 3-fold law will apply to them(hackers) and they will get it! :D
Seriously??? :o
Please tell me that everything posted on R/F isn't lost!!!

I'm going to ****ing kill the little ........... sry....bleeding TOS...

I hope evrything is not lost ! Ugh ! My stories.... if i have to rewrite everything,,,i backed up some of it, but not the last page of sword and bows....ugh !!!!!!!! Going to strangle those hackers !
My pirate ship and crew, lost out at sea....oh no...that could be bad.... have you seen my crew ....there goes all the rum and wine i had on board !
Beeboy, Master James.where are those two ?
Lord Blade, leave the ladies alone ! :)
Seriously though, has anyone wondered if all this hacking is an inside job, seeing how it seems to be happening more often. Wondering if we have an angry forum member on here who is doing it on purpose.
I would hate to think that. I concider R/F members like family.

WAAAAA! :'( *takes a swig of Her Majesty's rum* Ok, better now...;D
Oh, well, maybe I'll actually get some sewing done...anyone want to join me? *pulls out sewing project and starts to stitch buttons onto flower poufs*
Hehe, very good, Willin....
Just drifting here on this life raft... hands everyone a drink. I have rum, ale, or wine. Passes around sun tan oil. Changes into bathing suit. ( might as well work on tan while i am on this raft ;D ) Any other ladies care to join me. Help cheer up the hard working men, trying to solve this mess ! :)
Puts on some music..while we drift away........
Day after day I'm more confused
Yet I look for the light
Through the pourin' rain
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
And I'm feeling the strain
Ain't it a shame
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
[repeat]
Beginning to think that I'm wasting time
I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so unkind
Now I'm counting on you
To carry me through
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
[repeat]
And when my mind is free
You know a melody can move me
And when I'm feeling blue
The guitar's coming through to soothe me
Thanks for the joy that you're given me
I want you to know I believe in your song
Your rythm and rhyme and harmony
You've helped me along
Makin' me strong
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
[repeat]
Na, na, now won't ya
Won't ya take, oh ha ..take me
*sits down,in the shade*
Sorry, don't do the tanning thing..
*opens a Guiness,passes around cooler, full of the same*
Ah,lovely day, ain't it?
Thanks for the Guiness Renren! I'll have a drink with you then I might get a little sun. You see I'm in a wedding later this month and the bridesmaids dresses are strapless, so I should get a little color on my pasty white skin.
It is a nice day today. Does anyone have fun things planed for the weekend?
Yep, went to faire this past weekend - Iowa Renaissance Faire. Worked like crazy, played like crazy, made new friends, got sunburned, and am wishing I could do it all again this weekend in Nebraska (too much to do!).
Hey Molly (Elinore here), I know what you mean about maybe finally getting some sewing done! We had a massive thunder and lightning storm last night. Had to unplug the computer! I ended up getting about a quarter of my cartridge pleats finished on the underskirt I needed to redo (who knew that 4 panels of 60" wide taffetta would end up being way too bulky around the waist? I just wanted the POOFiness!). The only reason I didn't get more work done was because I was distracted by TV... ::)
Hi There,
I am missing the thread with pictures from Scarborough. I am stuck in GA, and I miss all my friends that work in TX. All of you, make me feel like it isn't all that far.
-Le sigh-

Right here Cap'n reporting for duty! Don't worry none, I'm sure our good board director will get us up and running with all the data in place and the good ship Lusty Lady will sail off to adventures once again. In the meantime we'll just deal here. And I have to agree with your wondering about the inside job, I mean REALLY. This is getting totally annoying!
Unfortunately.....some of these hackers belong to a sort of ...club. When one manages to bring down a website they pass along the url and other info to their buddies so they can try to do the same.
My BIL used to write software code for one of the credit card companies and he said it was a nightmare protecting their system and website.
does anyone know which "club" I might know a few people who could pass the names on to return fire.
I know I didn't post everyday, but I was a little disappointed when I couldn't access my forum bookmark. Then it tells me I don't exist! I'm so confused. Was it just time for housecleaning?
Git em in the cross hairs JC! Broadside cannons at the ready!
No, no. Hackers took another hit at the forum. AGAIN.
I blame on the wretched Peeps.
Will any of the old threads be restored? I was in the middle of reading the 44 pages of "You know you're a Rennie when..."

Oh and that was such a good one, too!!!
I think we are in a holding pattern till the powers that be figure out how to fix it or decide what to do... I'm sure DB and John are here somewhere working diligently...

Best case scenario is that the forums will get restored
at some point. Worst case...well, we won't even go there. I'm going to remain optimistic that everything will work out for the best.

I didn't get a chance to visit them...Do they have garlic fries???? I'm dying for some. The Garlic Fest in CA is right near the new Northern California site, btw...Gilroy, the Garlic Capital of the World!
Scarborough has a 'garlic festival' booth. But they just sell bottles of garlic based seasonings. I stock up every year because its really good. They say thay're discontinuing the California Cajun, which just breaks my heart. :'(

Have you tried their BBQ sauce yet? I bought a bottle opening weekend and used it to make some chicken it was really good. Plus they support the archery tourinment with prizes so they are a big favorite of mine.
