Hello Buffistas,
I hoping some of you may remember me, a long-time lurker, with only very occasional posts.
Still, I have a request. I have entered a "Real Woman Model Contest" with a local Vancouver designer. They are choosing the winners via voting, and so I hereby shameless request some votes.
The website is www.babs.ca. You need to register at the site to vote.
I appreciate any and all support. My name is Audrey Rempel, and I am in the 'triangle' section. If you have any questions, you can email me at audo65 at yahoo.com.
Thanks Abby

I have two laptop shipping boxes complete with foam inserts, if anyone needs one to ship a laptop or some other delicate item. If you need/want one, please email me at the profile addy and I'll mail it to you.
My nutritionist wants me to start tracking my calories and fitness at The Daily Plate [link] and it seems like it would be more fun to do with other people. So, I've created a Buffistas group. It's by invitation only, so go, sign up, and e-mail me your user name at thevwbug at gmail dot com, and we'll get started.

Y'all may have already seen this, but given the number or parents here I thought I should alert everyone to the fact that there was a recall on several Thomas toys because of lead paint. Details are here.
It's only a recall on a limited number of toys right now, and only on ones created between 2005 and 2007, but STILL. LEAD PAINT.
Yes, I've managed two, two posts to GCS in one month!
