Hey, that's great!

Thanks.

B Finnigan · Mar 14, 2006

It's good to have a map of all the beer guzzling, womanizing, steel beating, off color joke tellers and general rif-raf type of societal low lifes! Yes I am on the map also but there seems to be a high density of them on the east coast. HMMMMMM??????

deker · Mar 14, 2006

That's 'cuz all those left coast folks are always behind

I'm on the map now too.

consider putting your forum nickname in the "shout" if you use your real name on the map and they're different.

Put your photo up too. You can host off your hard drive, just like this place.

Hey guys. How do we get the Canadian group on the map. I can't find a way to get on here. Let us know. Thanks. Dave

Diggerdog · Mar 15, 2006

Nevermind. Sorry. Just figured it out. Dave

There are so many around me that I am buried.:grumpy: I can't even tease out my marker. Plain ol Bill needs to move to Spokane, it's too crowded around here.

fitzo · Mar 16, 2006

That site is fraught with a lot of difficulties yet in its beta version. Names that are there one visit disappear the next.

I'll likely be there from 9-5. You're in luck if you stop by, it's the annual Chili cookoff this weekend at noon-ish

(that reminds me, I gotta make up a recipe...hrmm) I'll be the bald guy in the "happy camper" baseball cap.

The address is:

500 South Center St
Westminster, MD

More info available at the guild website. Also, as you come down Center St. actually do the speed limit (25MPH). I know it seems painfully slow, but the cops like to hang out on Center St. and write tickets for anything over the limit.

The names are there, Mike, they just hide most of them when you close the program out for faster loading on next start up.

Look around on there a bit and you'll see where it might say, "showing 22 names, would you like to see the rest",and you click and they all come up, Same for the photo's and pins.
