Welcome to another edition of today's news. :) Before I get on with today's report I have a couple of announcements. First my one roleplaying friend is slowly recovering from the flu so he's back in school now,.. and second of all, the most exciting news in a long time. *clears throat and speaks in announcer's voice like in a movie trailer* Coming October first,.. it's April's (I decided to go with that name since I'm in a continuing series) Spooktactular Virtual Halloween Party!! Featuring all of your favorite Halloween hits and scary stories.




There will also be a pumpkin carving contest, so please take pictures of all of your pumpkins and post them on the thread. Then, on October 31st (Halloween) the pumpkin picture with the most likes will win and if it's alright with all of the moderators like questdriven, and Razeontherock etc. There might even be a category created for the most spooktactular Halloween pumpkin of 2018.



I'm really crossing my fingers on that one because that would be so awesome!!! :crossed Oh yeah and there will even be a virtual trick-or-treat which I will explain the rules of that on that thread, but I will tell you the two most important rules now,.. make sure that you wear your costume (it doesn't have to really be a picture of you in it just find a random picture of it on the internet) and have fun!! :thumbsup So please be sure to join me on the first because it's sure to be a howling good time and I'm just dying to have you! Muhahahahahaha!!!! :mischief









(Yes, that was the Thriller laugh by the way :lol)




Anyways, on with today's report! :salute (and once it gets closer to the Christmas season I will announce the special thread that I have for that :yes)

They had no right to take the man's coupons away. They didn't have to give him a burger, but the coupons were the man's property.

Butterflies are pretty. I'm glad they escaped Florence.

May the Lord bless you too.
 
I think your pumpkin carving contest is a great idea!



Thanks, I'm glad you think so. :) I figured that if you could create a selection for it in honorable members. I was going to award the first through fourth place winners. And I agree with Michael74 but I don't think that was reason to get the cops involved unless it was with the non emergency number because there are people who have real emergencies and the system shouldn't be taken advantage of imho,.. and yes I love butterflies, we seem to be getting a lot of them right now.
