Congratulations on Bonametal Sally (Page 1 of 2)

Hi everyone,

Thank you, Natasha!  Yes, and I see you’ll be there any minute too! This is a very proud and super happy happening for me!  Honored and entirely grateful to be a Joe B. Forum participant. Making it to Boname(n)tal seemed so far away but went quicker than I ever thought.  It’s easy to get involved here among Joe’s best fans.  Even at the 1,000 mark I still feel like a newbie, only at the entry level to official fan-dom.  Am especially humbled to be in the far-away company of Forum elite/royalty like Jane, RickB, Rocket, Roy, Brack, George, Nic, Cathy, bigjeff, Bill, ohiodawg, Patty, etc.   We definitely need new designations for 5,000, 10,000, and 15,000 posts!

This is my first-ever forum.  Not unlike all of you, what drew me here was my head “burst”ing with my new-found exuberance for Joe that demanded an outlet. Special thanks to my welcomers a bit over a year ago, especially PSmith, RickB, cindyron, BarbieD, Coach, JBFan4Life, fett, wvgirlinky, jclark, and blues&tattoos. These shout-outs to new members IMO truly are an important function that has such a positive impact.  Not having many relatives, I’ve secretly adopted all of you as my family. The highlight of my day is checking in and seeing what’s going on with you all and Joe.  It’s a real privilege to be amongst such good people from all over the world who also happen to love Joe.  It is intriguing the type of person Joe draws…a definite tribute to him! 

It’s especially fun learning tons from you gearheads!  Never imagined I would have any idea what things like these even are:  way huge pork loin, Gigliotti, 10 cents flat tuning, Cobalts/Slinkies, Reso, .011-.052s, Bareknuckles, 335s, Herco nylon golds, M55/56 magnets, Bad Cats, Dumbles, winding your own, Triptiks, Kentucky Blue, DD3, Trainwreck, etc.  I have developed such an enormous respect for all you players considering the crazy/confusing/complicated technology, science, and engineering that is behind your performing!

My thanks to every one of you for making this so much fun, and of course my absolute best ‘til death to our Joe, who has infused new life into so many of us.   <3

                        Warmest,
                                FFL (fan for life), Sally

Congrats Sally.  Not an easy mark to reach, and you have done it in fine style.

Sandy

Yes, mike, am well aware that "it ain't over until the Sandy Eggo Flash sings!"

Congrats!!!

Congrats Sally!  Hope to join the club someday.  I edit my post each day for Bonahistory, so that won't get me there anytime soon.

Congratulations Sally!  Look forward to the next 1000.

Rocket ...?

Congrats Sally!!

Congrats! I was off fishing and missed the event.
