Been a while folks

[Steve C]

Hi everyone... some of the people who have been here a while may remember me (my condolences). To the lucky ones who don't - hi to you as well. ;)

Coming through google groups as FIOS doesn't provide usenet servers and a very cursory search didn't turn up any free services that allowed posting privileges, only viewing. I didn't really search very hard though for the purpose of this.

I've been lurking for a bit and see that the modus operandi of the group hasn't changed a whole lot since I last visited.

I also see quite a few 'oldies' still here. Even some of the original members of the Cabal! (ducking and running)

I used to have quite a few email addresses for folks but through my own shear stupidity, lost them :( (don't ask)

I must wish a happy belated birthday to Sheldon! Sorry I missed your 70th. Can I assume by your handle change that you've relocated to the south?

Anyhow, moving on to why I popped back in; we're preparing for a massive house cleanout (read as: yardsale) and I ran across a virtually mint copy of the RFC Cookbook. Now, I know that I'm being stupid as it will be worth a fortune but considering the fact that I haven't changed much, and still don't use cookbooks I was wondering if there someone involved with it who may of lost their copy and would like it replaced?

Many of the signature dishes included in the book are available on the
RFC website.

http://www.recfoodcooking.org/index.html

The RFC cookbook was compiled and published in the aftermath of 9/11 and
the proceeds went to charity (Second Harvest). It shouldn't cost you
more than shipping for the extra copy of the cookbook.

Those of us who contributed in any way to the RFC Cookbook certainly
THANK YOU for offering to sell it back to us! Good lord. Please find
your way out the door.

Just who in the hell said anything about selling?!?? Still jumping to
conclusions without knowing anything of which you speak I see.

Well gee, you made it sound like you were selling stuff. Maybe I
misread massive house cleanout/yardsale. Sorry Steve.

Back atcha kiddo. Just passing through. Was just curious to see if
someone involved with the cb may need it replaced for whatever reason.
If an "oldie" doesn't then I'll just keep it for posterity purposes to
prove I was actually published should the topic ever come up... but it
just sits here unused.

I hope this finds you well.

She and I never got along too well in the old days either - must be my
name or something... ;-)

I don't take things personally, but I don't cower in the corner like a
puppy either.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be hard on him. I was under the impression he
was trying to sell it.

No, I think it has a lot more to do with the fact that she's a cunt.

I'm glad to see you, I wondered about you just the other day.
Well, I didn't wonder *about* you, I wondered how you were doing.
Whatever this move is, hope it goes smoothly.

I gave away my last extra, but I still have one copy.

I'm doing well, thanks. So far, so good. Heh.

I would never even think of saying such a thing. Granted we had no love
loss for each other but there was at least tolerance. ;)

I would never attack anyone in such a fashion. Just totally uncalled for.

Thanks - just trying to find a good home for the book. ;)

Oh, no move.... yet Nancy. Just HAVE to clean out! No more room at the
inn. Eventually when da boss retires (I retired last year) in 5 or so
years we'll probably pick up and get the hell out of NYS though. Can't
stand the idiots that keep getting elected 'round these parts.

Thank you, Steve. I do apologize if I spoke out of turn but "medivas"
has been in my killfile for years.

Jill

[Steve Calvin]

np Jill. Been a long time. ;-)

As for the other comment, that's just so crude and uncalled for it's
outrageous.

I'll head back over to lurker land and see if any oldies need the book
otherwise bit it, and I will head back to the shelf. ;-) Stay well.

And it does binaries, with a limit of 1MB circa
Welcome back

[Steve Calvin]

Well, it's been over a week and no one involved with the Cookbook spoke
up and said they needed another copy so I'm fading back into the abyss.

If anyone runs into Dams or Squeaks over in FB land tell them that I
said hi please.

Was hoping for a more pleasant return visit but I should of known
better... after all it is RFC.

Y'all take care.

"poof"

Hey Steve..welcome back. Just trying to recover from a big yard sale
where all that stuff went for pennies on the dollar...just to make room
for more good stuff. Best of fortunes on parting with the treasures.
