Looks cool! What is the Tucson AZ location in the press release all about? (Curious…as I am in Tucson myself!)
Heard you on Craftcast yesterday Tim, and you’ll be seeing my IP all over your stats! Thanks for teaching! (Isn’t it interesting how all of our life experiences get rolled into our activities? So cool!)
great idea, although i am a bit daunted by the idea of a constant competition - potentially could be a bit exhausting or demoralizing, if you aren’t doing well.
Will obviously check it out!

Hey there Tim,
You are like a house on fire!! Those metal gears in your head never stop, do they?!! I’m feeling very much in the loop now, and it feels like I’m in good hands! Here’s an idea you might want to consider. Maybe you could slow it down a notch, or create a niche for the very new newbie!! A pace we can build on without feeling steamrollered!! WHEW!!

I wasn’t able to link. I kept getting an error page, so I’ll try later.
Mr. Timothy, all I can say is you are a ROCKSTAR!
Really!

What would we do without Tim? Thanks a million. Off to figure out how to post a picture there…
Looks like a neat site, although I wasn’t able to sign up because of what looks like a technical problem. The sign up box would not advance for me to put in the security code & submit. I’ll try again later.
Thanks….gotta go check it out!
Thanks for yet another opportunity!
Going to check it out now.
Going straight there. Thanks, Tim!
Thanks tons Tim!
Thanks. I’m going there now!
