[Blindtlk] introduction

Mon Sep 3 01:51:28 UTC 2012

Hi Ray,

Yep! We can get into some serious stuff here, but we can also have a lot of
fun, which we do often! Remember when we were talking about singing at
national convention, and somebody said that Mike Freeman sounded like
Tennessee Ernie Ford when he sang the national anthem, to which Bennett
Prows replied that he hoped Mike didn't get the words mixed up and say "I
owe my soul to the dawn's early light?" <Grin!> We have a good time on here!
Welcome to the insanity that is the Blind Talk list, Jasmine! LOL!

Chris

in the snow barefooted, if I had to. My dad is the same way.

discuss some very serious matters here.  Somebody wants help with something,
for example, we try to offer the best advice we can on the matter.
Important NFB news updates with respect to the NFB are posted here.  IF our
help is needed with respect to various legislative matters, such requests
can be found here.  HTH.
