Shufflers,
Well,
only a month until Reno. I'm a planner and a list
maker and I'm way behind already! I'll be getting
my suitcases out shortly and I'll be out buying those
little shampoos to pack. I'll be counting shirts and
pants to make sure I have enough to wear for 10 days.
Maybe buying some new things, perhaps making some
for the trip.
I'll
be reporting "live" again from Reno. I hope
to do a better job this year. Last year I was limited
by the battery on my laptop being deader than a door
nail and having to shut down and reboot every time
I wanted to move a few feet, go to my room, or go
back to the ballroom. I should also have better than
dial up this time.
Do you have a story to tell? A character you'd like
profiled? Look me up, I'd be glad to help!

Additions
have been made to Board Talk Archive.
I've scanned about 10 issues from 1998-1999. In those
two years many people were inducted into state hall
of fames. Many were the firsts in those hall of fames.
I've extracted these pages and posted them to the
individual HOF pages for each state. To that end I've
added an additional drop down box on the home page
of eshuffleboard.com as shown above. Extracts have
been added to CA, CO, IN, MO, NV and WA. The  indicates
a HOF extract. I will continue as time permits to
post these HOF stories. If you haven't checked out
the CA HOF page, click here http://www.eshuffleboard.com/CA/.
Be
sure and click the > on the music player to start
the music. (My kids insisted I make it stop playing
automatically)
Oh,
I almost forgot the search feature I'm testing. You
can find it on any page of the Board Talk Archive.
Click on site map and see the files that have been
indexed. Not all the files are indexed because this
is the free version and is limited at this time. They've
already raised my limit twice. I haven't decided to
buy the service yet. Try it out and let me know what
you think.
Example:
Type in "Bourbon", click find and 38 articles
come up. Open any of those pdf files to continue your
search. I'm hoping this will be very useful to people
putting together state HOF booklets.
Let me know if you need anything and I'll try to help
you.
REPEAT:
The October
13-14
True Round Robin Doubles - $50 Per Team Start Friday

is
on hold. Please watch the Indiana Schedule for updates.
This tournament may be canceled or rescheduled at
a different venue. Or may end up being at the Town
Tavern after all. Please contact Glenn and Jeri if
you would like this date.
Coco
Brown has suggested a new feature, a way to comment
on tournaments without detracting from the official
report. I have a certain way I want to do this but
haven't figured out exactly how to get-er-done as
yet. I'll let you know when I do. I want to add a
button that says: "To comment on this article,
web page, tournament,
"Click here".
