All the postcards on my end are finally drawn (whew!). After inking and coloring, the plan is to send them out by the 18th.

Count me in.

Theme: Proper Hygiene

Simple version of events: Well, at some point between Cookout 2007 and Cookout 2008, two factions in chat started to develop. One faction liked to talk about racy subjects (sexuality and the like) and the other didn't like it one bit. Words were exchanged and abuse of the "Everyone has Ops" system ...

Just uploaded my photos and vids. Check 'em out - they're under the subfolder "Fading Aura" in the Cookout 2009 folders.

Once again, we're using the cookout photobucket account to centralize photos, sketches and videos!

Probably so, Cortland. Aggie, Reinder, Lia and I are still getting things together - loading the van, etc. We should be there later this afternoon, before or around 5 PM or so if everything goes smoothly.

Here, have some motivational posters from years past.

In other words, he's popular. And now he can quietly slip away, accomplishing nothing with the position he has been granted.

You may want to get in touch with Ryan if you're still in the St. Louis area. He might be interested in organizing a D&D game.

vote Mad Scientist Party, we'll give you all the science you can handle, and then some. You're just going to outlaw science as well, just because you think outlaw science is cool... For the record, I'm not voting for Legostar / Laemkral either. It'd be like voting for a Mr. Bob / McDuffies ticket w...

Well, you just lost my vote.

Why is the donation fund closing? According to the cookout website, " We will stop taking submissions on March 28, 2009. This gives us time to purchase travel tickets before the prices exceed the limitations of the fund." This is actually two weeks longer than last year because it took a little ext...

Quick reminder: the donation fund will close in one week. If you need some help getting to the cookout, by all means, e-mail me at stlcookout@gmail.com or send a PM my way. The donation fund is currently empty, but that's probably because no one has asked to be on the list.

Snopes has an article on this myth (which wasn't meant to become one at all).

Dude, I don't know you that well, but I would NEVER have my child anywhere near such dangerous items, let alone place it next to them while they were sleeping for the silly amusement of a few anonymous online buddies on a forum. Think it over what you are doing and reconsider it. You are in no posi...

Questions for me, alas. We're doing the fly-in on Thursday, catered on Saturday, and flyout Sunday like years gone by? That's the plan as far as I know. Keep an eye on this page for things that might be going on . Also, I need to get that cam switched out for a dedicated CG account, and get the vid...

If you're looking for a president, you should choose someone who isn't actually on the forums anymore. Allow me to elaborate. 1) Said president should be chosen on popular standing. That way everyone will look up to and have fond memories of them, i.e., "Remember when the President did insert event ...

Yes. It's called "making them yourself from scratch".

The donation fund is now up for those that wish to contribute. If you'd like to be put on the list, just throw a PM my way or send an e-mail to stlcookout@gmail.com . Full information is at the website.
