Jim; This will be my last public response to your diatribes on this BB. If you were present at the Membership Meeting in Las Vegas (which you were not.... and for those who do not know, Jim Perlowski lives right there in Las Vegas) you would have/could have received a detailed financial report; (copies of which were made avialable to everyone who cared to pick one up at the meeting) by our very capable club Treasurer, Chuck Tomarchio, which listed every check by number that the club has issued.... including checks paid for publicity. The facts are there Jim.... go get them. So much for "secrets and lies". No Jim, you choose to air your beefs on this public board. Then when you fire the first salvo, you go hide behind the well-worn excuse which we've all heard from you time and time again ... gee, "I wasn't attacking anyone. It was only my opinion." When someone else with a different opinion than yours responds to your attacks, diffusing your arguments, we hear again from you "stick to the issue". Now your current post is titled "Mr. Secrets and Lies" and I'm supposed to ignore that as not being personal. No Jim, I know what the record is. I'm here as a club officer making decisions. You are out there daydreaming about what decisions I've may have made and repeating the lie often enough that you begin to believe your own mis-illusions. Tell you what Jim. Write to Chuck Tomarchio and request a copy of his report that was available at the convention meeting... you know, the one you didn't show up for.... and then make your next post after you have the facts. On second thought, no matter what Chuck's report indicates, somehow I feel it won't be good enough to satisfy you. If we spent X, I'm certain that Jim Perlowski will say we should have spent "Y". However, after you read the report that was publicly made available to the membership in attendance Jim, please tell everyone again that the club only spent $15 to $50 on publicity. I'm pleased that this organization is in the black. If the new crew wants to spend, spend, spend and put us into the red I'll not be a party to it. RUN, JIMBO, RUN, or will you simply be content to throw brickbats at the newly elected officers too!! Archie
