Hey everybody, welcome to another edition of today's news.
We have a rather short report to do today, but before I get to that I have a couple of announcements. The first announcement is that tomorrow is the eighteenth anniversary of the attacks of 911.
So there will be a special thread tomorrow to commemorate it and talk about it and let us continue praying for all of the victims' family and friends as well as the hope that this never happens again to America or any other country.
The second announcement is that three weeks from today I will have my second annual spooktacular virtual Halloween party.
Just in case you weren't here last year or you need a reminder, there will be all of your favorite Halloween hits, virtual refreshments, as well as virtual trick-or-treat and the pumpkin carving contest. (This year I might even add a virtual campfire with ghost stories as another possibility. :wink)
If you want to participate in the virtual trick-or-treat, all you need to do is either post a picture of yourself wearing a costume, or just a costume that you are planning to wear this year for Halloween or that you would like to wear. However, before you can get any virtual candy don't forget, you have to say trick-or-treat first as I kept having to remind certain members and staff members of that last year.
(I got a whole lot of virtual candy from
JohnDB last year and if he actually gives that much candy out for real, I bet he gets loads of trick-or-treaters!
)
Also, if you would like to participate for the pumpkin carving contest, take a picture of the pumpkin that you carve and the pumpkin that receives the most likes by October 31st
AKA Halloween is the winner! :wootSo yes all of this information will be reposted on the first of October in my special thread, but I don't know about you guys but I'm already starting to get excited!
Oh yeah and for my "It's The Most Wonderful Time of The Year" Christmas celebration I'm trying to think of ways to make it bigger and better this year so if you have any ideas, be sure to PM me and I will actually make a public thread about it sometime in November. So please be sure to come to "April's Second Annual Virtual Halloween Party" because it's sure to be a howling good time! :shock
Anyways, back on today.
