To not just Ellen, but everyone on the list that just has to know the dirty secrets of the Dallas Club!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HERE IT IS-The way I see it I attended several meetings and enjoyed them. I attended their 2003 Speciality, and showed in their 2004 Speciality. They were an amazing group - of 3-5 people that actually showed up. They welcomed me when I attended their meetings. THey had great programs. However, I never joined. THere had to be a quorum for a new member to join. The way I saw it - it was a very successful club-with a membership that didn't show up. It's hard to run any club without the major asset - PEOPLE. Now my second thought ----this is spilt milk. Can't go back and change it. The list has been an inspiration and a great learning tool for me. However, the games that some members have been playing (on this subject as well as others), the back-biting, the meanness does not make sense to me. Please, as a newby-take your mud slinging private!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks. Pat Evans Ellen Penington <epeningt@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: ot know this person, and this person obviously doesn't know me.
