This is a true story: a friend got me a nice shirt with cartoon versions of the main three Rat Pack on it, so I wore it to Christmas dinner, where we'd invited one of my wife's friends from Nigeria. She's about 30 or so, and a wonderful person.
Later, someone asked if she knew who those three (Martin, Davis, Sinatra) were and she didn't know them at all. Wow.
Then, somehow we moved to "do you know who Elvis Presley is?" Nope
Untainted thoughts.
A great chance to influence her badly.

I see a lot of familiar names in the original incarnation. Some not familiar at all. What happened to Not-a-Fish? Seemed he was the original initiator of the club. Crazy it's been going on for 16 years. And I was surprised to see I've been a member for 13 years! There have been times when it seemed like it would go by the wayside. Happy to see it continue. It would be great if some other older members jumped in for a spell.

Looks like 2026 is sneaking up. I'm not an original member but am curious as to how many years this thing has been going. Speaking of old members we have Serious Lee joining us for the coming year. He was a member when I first joined under a different handle but departed shortly thereafter. Welcome back!
Proposed lineup
January - Cold Miser
February - Serious Lee
March - Miamizsun
April - Kurt from LaQuinta
May - Lazy 8
initially this looks good
my only concern is tax time here in the states
feb and march are pretty heavy for me
so i'm going to give this a whirl and if i need to swap, i'll let everyone know
been proactive on optimizing work flow so i'm expecting smoother sailing
and welcome back lee
I can swap with you if you think you can do January on short notice.

We started in 2009. Lazy and I are original members. This will be my 23rd mix this month. And it should be done by the weekend (I hope) Change the post order of the thread and go back and have a look at the long history and all he different RPeeps who have participated over the years.

Due to a medical issue on Wednesday after my monthly treatment the right half of my body went numb. CT's and most likely not a stroke is the initial diagnosis. We're working on it. The main residual mechanical effect is the numbness persists with the thumb, first finger and wrist on my right hand, making using a mouse rather tricky. Not Carpal Tunnel as before this there were no issues with my hand.
I've got the songs picked and have some work to do on them and I should have little problem getting something out this month. It is most unlikely that there will be anything extra like I intended this year.
I'll give a heads up when they ship.
We will gladly take whatever you can get out. And if you can't get anything out that is OK too. Hope the issue clears up, it's hard to switch hands for many of life's daily adventures.
