Creating Desktop Shortcut to our Rooms
|
| |
Many members are still unaware how to create a desktop shortcut to our rooms so we will address this once again in the newsletter. By making the shortcut available on your desktop you stand a far better chance of getting into our rooms when the rooms are busy or full.
You can accomplish this as follows:
1. When you are in the room maximize the room.
2. Right click the pale yellow space on the outside of the chat area
3. Select create short cut
4. You will then be asked if you wish to put a short cut to this site on your desktop.
5. Click YES.
The shortcut will then appear on your desktop. To rename the shortcut simply right click on the shortcut and rename to the name of the room.
By creating these shortcuts on your desktop you will have easier access to the rooms you wish to play in. |

| Could you tell us a little bit about your personal life. |
| |
retired early moved to Florida from Rhode Island walk a few miles 5 days per week with wife and dog included if not too hot out. If too hot just with wife at inside mall up the street. |
| |
| What do you enjoy in your spare time? Any hobbies? |
| |
Yard work, walking, TV, computer games mostly bowling gin and spades. |
| |
| Do you have a favorite place to vacation? |
| |
Disney World in Orlando is my favorite place in the world, Can't get enough of it. |
| |
| What are your favorite pogo games? |
| |
Pogo Bowl, Gin, Spades |
| |
| What prompted your screen name? Does it hold any special meaning to you? |
| |
R is for first initial of my name (Roger) chevr for first 5 letters of my last name. and 6366 randomly picked by pogo. |
| |
| We have undergone several changes; is there any changes in particular that you would like to see? |
| |
Only thing I would suggest is to offer reduced # of games of td's to host to 3 games per week in order to attract more people who would be interested. I feel 6 is too much especially for those who only play maybe 10 times per week. |
| |
| In closing, do you have a special quote or saying you could share with us? |
| |
I always get the last 2 words in when I get into a argument with the wife. (Yes dear) |
| |
| Thank you rchevr6366 for your contribution to this week’s newsletter |

| Okay, give us the scoop please.. What was it that made you decide to become a td? Was it the lure of that beautiful smiley badge or something else? |
| |
The TD's in the rooms looked they were having such a good time and it just looked like fun. |
| |
| Can you tell us why being a td is something others should consider? |
| |
The players are great and its like a big family. |
| |
| Where do you live, what do you do for fun, give us the inside scoop into your life beyond the "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO." |
| |
After living in New Orleans I moved back to where I grew up in Texas. My world right now revolves around my son and his football games. |
| |
| Any hobbies? Anything you collect? What's your favorite things to do when not contributing your free time to the league? |
| |
I love to travel, and go places that my son is interested in. I collect snow babies and painted ponies. |
| |
| Describe to our players.. what's it like on the other side when going from player to hosting? |
| |
It's a lot different than just playing. When you play your only concern is yourself but as a TD you have to worry about everyone that's playing. |
| |
| Does your screen name hold any special meaning to you? |
| |
no not really |
| |
| Is there anything you would like to tell or remind our players about when mistakes happen during a tour? |
| |
The TD's are human and they do make mistakes. Mistakes can be fixed just let us know when something is wrong. |
| |
| And last but not least ... do you have a special quote or saying that holds some special meaning to you? |
| |
Live, love and laugh if you can do that then you have a pretty good life |
| |

WEEKLY CHUCKLE
|
A cab driver picks up a nun. She gets into the cab, and the cab driver won't stop staring at her.
She asks him why he is staring.
He replies: "I have a question to ask you, but I don't want to offend you".
She answers, "My son, you cannot offend me. When you're as old as I am and have been a nun as long as I have, you get a chance to see and hear just about everything. I'm sure that there's nothing you could say or ask that I would find offensive."
"Well, I've always had a fantasy to have a nun kiss me."
She responds, "Well, let's see what we can do about that. But first, you have to be single and you must be Catholic."
The cab driver is very excited and says, "Yes, I'm single and Catholic!"
"OK" the nun says. "Pull off to the side of the road, "maybe we will see what we can do."
The nun plants a whopper of a kiss on the cabbie! But when they get back on the road, the cab driver starts crying.
"My dear child," said the nun, why are you crying?"
"Forgive me, but I've sinned. I lied. I must confess, I'm married and I'm Jewish."
The nun says, "That's OK, my name is Kevin and I'm going to a Halloween party." |
