Members missedmyexit Posted April 6, 2009 Members Share Posted April 6, 2009 I've been waiting for my singer to show up so we can record one of these but he never shows so this week I think I just might treat/torture everyone by singing myself. I am going to apologize in advance for this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members StephenP Posted April 7, 2009 Members Share Posted April 7, 2009 Hello everyone, pleased to meet you. I will be helping out with the VOM archive web site this month. Pop wanted me to get in here and introduce myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ohioarrow Posted April 7, 2009 Members Share Posted April 7, 2009 Folks - want to introduce my son-in-law, Stephen. As he mentioned, he will be doing the data side of the VOM this month while I am laid up. I have been training him for a couple months now and he did the last VOM data entry himself while I watched. He should have you well covered for the event. Try not to throw him any curve balls though. He's not quite as familiar with all the other odds and ends that I normally do like hosting stuff and what have you. Stephen is also gonna inform Stack about the results of the surgery on Thursday afternoon. He's also agreed to drop the entire VOM to mp3 and bring it to me in recovery. So make it a good one guys and gals, this VOM is my recovery music. The only bad thing about him is that if he calls me pop one more time I am gonna have to smack him around the head and shoulders for a while. The boy is giving me an old complex.

Members C70man Posted April 7, 2009 Members Share Posted April 7, 2009 Folks - want to introduce my son-in-law, Stephen...........The only bad thing about him is that if he calls me pop one more time I am gonna have to smack him around the head and shoulders for a while. The boy is giving me an old complex. Get well soon! And thanks so much for putting this together for everyone. As far as that feeling old thing goes.....I know the feeling. "Pop" is one of those words that just doesn't work for me either...it really cuts right thru the age barrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're only a year older than me, so shut up with that "old" crap. :poke: "May God bless and keep you always, My your wishes all come true May you always do for others And let others do for you. May you build a ladder to the stars And climb on every rung And may you stay forever young. May you grow up to be righteous, May you grow up to be true May you always know the truth And see the light surrounding you May you always be courageous, Stand upright and be strong And may you stay forever young. Forever young, Forever young, May you stay forever young. May your hands always be busy May your feet always be swift May you have a strong foundation When the winds of changes shift May your heart always be joyful May your song always be sung And may you stay forever young."
