Lets start off on this. I worked three years back and hated it. It was because of some people who are not there now but I didnt go to the faire until this past year because of Bailee.. We came the Second weekend... I was expecting something but not what we got. Joe you made this year so much fun! I never expect to want to come back but after having so much fun I just had to. Three times not including the ceilidh.. It was fun and because you were there made it all the better. True I did have my run in with a few people from past but all I had to do was go find one of you and it was all made better.

For that I say thanks and for everything you have done, you made that part the best by far. (plus Pub was a LOT more fun when you were dancing on the tables and being followed by Bailee) There were so many cute pictures taken, I am glad that you were there.

Anyway thought I would just put my two words in.. (Tho It seems liek a lot more than 2) But anyways. Ill talk to you later.

Well, I'm glad to have turned a lousy memory into a good one for you. People like you and Bailee (and Bob and Smog, mentioned above) show me not only why we do this, but why we should do it.

It's so much fun putting magic back in the world for someone, even just for a little while. I think that kind of thing is what Jeff wanted to happen when he started this faire.

Knowing what came before makes the fact that you (and Bailee) enjoyed faire so much even better for me. Thank you for sharing.

Just becasue I can't keep my mouth shut. :) I debated most of the day on weather or not to post. Since your post and many of the ones that followed were so pointedly directed at myself, and Red Griffin, I thought that I would comment. No, my panties are not in a twist, and I do not think that you are right or wrong, I think that you have some legitamate points, and I thought that you might benefit from seeing things from the other side. I have posted a very long post in my LJ. Have a look see. Even if it wasn't said enough you did a great job this year, and I look forward to next year.

Well, mine wasn't *meant* to be pointed, at least.

I appreciated the history lesson, most of that, especially the early years and things with BHF, I wasn't aware of. Rest assured I harbor no ill will twoard you or RG.

I didn't see you much outside of Pub Sing this year, but I thought you and Will co-emceeing it was a blast! Well, no, I did see you, you were just always going from one place and event to another.

"Without resorting to sex jokes and jiggling boobs to boost our ratings and crutch our performances, thank you very much. That's not to say we won't let off with the occasional joke, it's just we don't have to ( ... )

God, that's a mental image...

Thanks for the kind words. You're right, I didn't go out of my way, and I probably could have. I try to at least be on speaking terms with as many people as I can, but for a lot of people, especially RG, the only time I see them is when one of us is going from point A to point B or is just dead tired.

Heh. I did enjoy interacting with the four of you, that was fun.

As your "older brother" told me, you have been "watched unbeknownst to you", and I love watching chessboard when I can. Strawberry Hulk, as I heard your can-o-whoop-ass called, was awesome.

I'm not really as 'worried' as all that. I was just trying to get things out of my head, and then *this* happened.
