LOL That sounds like a great idea lost.
I would like to apply for administration
Treasurers position :-]

We know who the lurkers are because they appear every once in a while with excuses as to why they are not posting. Well, if they have no time to post how do they have time to lurk. Maybe they can appear and explain.

Lost, if you're charging an admin fee, I want to be CEO.

This is good new we now have a Treasurer and a CEO, we already have countless members and the group is growing exponentially.

A board of directors have been appointed

and guess what We have an anonymous benefactor who wants to remain nameless of course who wants to donate millions of dollars to us.

as Treasurer Chesty You will need to register all lurkers fee's with the tax authorities

and may be set up a pay pal account for our fee's to be paid into

One thing I am not clear about is if Arline 's CEO is an Honorary or paid appointment

It is rumored that already we have a membership in excess of 800 This in just 24 hrs

may we could offer a month free trial membership

any non payer's would of course be struck off

I also think we should give 10% of any profits to a diabetic charity

so I expect arline will want to have a board meeting soon

I had a call tonight because someone said we had started a new group. We're only joking everybody!

See, lurkers have time to lurk but no time to post.

Lost, a CEO is not honorary - it is a highly paid position and I want a big chunk of that benefactor's money. Just call me Madoff the 2nd.

Yes, I expect to hold a Board of Directors meeting just as soon as we know who they are.

Yes of course I'd expect the CEO to attract a large salary and the gold plated pension ,expense account etc.

Bernie is I believe incommodious, or should I say incarcerated, In England the term is resting at her Majesties Pleasure.

So we cannot count on any tips form him.

Maybe we could register in the Cayman islands too Don't want the tax man pestering Chesty for Money

It the membership keep growing we may have to impose a hefty joining fee to slow demand!

Lost - believe it or not, Madoff went to my high school and graduated 2 years after me. The same with his wife.

Lesa - it may not be a bad idea to start a lurkers group. We would charge money and never have to post a thing because every day there would be a blank page.

I want the money;-]

Sorry, I make the money - you just manage it ! And no fraud allowed. I'll be watching !

I think we shall have to put all the funds into a Swiss bank account
The lawyer fee and set up fee are beginning to bite.

Because of our generous millionaire's donation We have to apply for charity status.
I was wondering if a chunk of cash for President Obama's re- elections campaign may smooth things through.
Pity Arline's mate Madoff is incommunicado I'm sure he could advise us how to grease the wheels
And maybe even attract some wealthy shareholders

Actually, I hear Madoff is loving prison. Guess he's forming his new scam company.

Arline You think he might be selling lots on beautiful Alcatraz Island:-]

He posted me to say he's signed up 1,659 non posting members to our new site

But he did'n t say which bank he deposited the membership fee's in, He did say not to worry they are very safe.

He said to say hello to Arline and remind her that she never did pay him back that $150 he lent her all those years ago. And if she could see her way to making a swift reimbursement It would be very much appreciated

The $150 I borrowed from him is now going toward the money its costing us to keep him in free room and board.

Oh thats a trifle unfair. Think of all the dosh Uncle Bernie payed to the American tax man.

I bet over the years he paid enough Tax, to build the prision.

So every cloud has a silver linning so its said
