Mark is director of information, for those of you that don't know this. He did put out the only GDI news letter.
I forgot about that newsletter...man...it was the precussor no I didn't misspell that one...to the internet boards ...there was some def clowning on that one...I made fun of me running ditches even back then and Standingman's heavy use of Duct-tape drysuit gaskets...even made fun of Jim Little being Louie's illegitimate son. I think even Chota got slapped around on it...I think that was around the time Bailey got caught on film making fun of them and have to give a public apology and I made sure to rub salt in the wound it was always good to get one on Bailey.
Louie I might have a copy of it that you gave me...my ex burned the original and my First D pics and notes...go figure : )
it was the birthday invitation to my 30th ...we rented Jim Little's Dad bar...and closed it to the public...that was the night we raffled off Louie's paddle Frasier found on Overflow and rigged it to where Louie's ex won it...we got Louie good.
The old Dagger gang showed up...10 years later I ran into one of the Rose brothers and all he could talk about was that party even 10 years later...the bar ran out of beer...I was told we had a good time

He did put out the only GDI news letter. Dan and Chris should change. Dan's appropriations are more in line with GDI. Thanks Louie for my 25%.
I say combine, make Dan- VP of Logistics and Appropriations.
I prefer a more made up title like VP of Excellence.
with all this talk of officers its sounding more and more like a real club...at least there are no dues and we boat instead of having covered dish events
Mark I wouldn't worry about the officer talk too much. I am sure we can exspect the same level of involvement, drive, organization, clear thinking, and good decision makein we could count on by all the past officals of the club....if not less. I will do my best to make sure my efforts decline if not remain the same.

The new GDI motto: Nunc Est Bibendum (Latin for Now it's time to drink)
Now all we need is a logo and some stickers and we could almost be like a real paddling club. Except we actually go to the river, don't pay dues, don't have meetings (too much like a 12-step program), find humor and don't panic watching members swim...I said almost.
If common sense were the prevailing wage, I'd always be broke.

Martine - Director of Transportation
Andrew - GDI Ambassador to Canada
Roy - GDI Ambassador to Wisconsin (Apparently it's a different country)
