The Butcher Block / Character Casting by Jim
« on: March 18, 2015, 06:16:38 PM »
A long while back Jim had mentioned who he'd like to see cast in the different roles of the characters in The Dresden Files, but I can't find the list any longer and would love to see it again.  Does anyone remember who he said he would cast for each character? Iago had posted it on Jim's site, but it's no longer there. (I hope this is the place to put this, sorry if it's not.)

Actually we call ourselves loonies, but Dresenites works just as well. *nods and wanders off* muttering. I still think Madison, WI would be nice...halfway between Minneapolis and Chicago..yep.

*dies laughing* Nice try though, Rasins, I would have thought he would have appreciated a little home made meal and housecleaning!

Wisconsin, preferably southern or middle Wisconsin, but has he ever been to Wisconsin?  Heck, he's missing a beautiful part of the country. *G*

no, that's not a spoiler, and I'm sorry I can't answer that question, I know I do enjoy Roman history, there is so much which I grew up learning about it, though I did learn more about Norse history from my Father, who's Dad came from Norway, I still find the Roman History of great interest. 

I love both the CA and TDF books, they are different, yet in some ways there are similarities I've found in both that I love.   I hope you look over the board and find other threads you enjoy, too, this is a great place to be. :)

I love that idea, but isn't the "Ask Jim" thread similar?  (Asking because I'm not 100% sure if that's the format, etc that would be used.)  Whoa, just checked and there is no "Ask Jim" thread.....I'll respond when my mind gets back from vacation and I can think more clearly...no guarantees though.

I may just stay home..wish it were closer, I'd definitely be there, I don't like driving that distance late at night, last time I got caught up in that dang thunderstorm and heavy downpour, ended up pulling off the road for about 20 mins. *L*

Community Cork Board / Accessible Playground needs help, please
« on: March 19, 2014, 08:01:53 PM »
http://camdenplayground.tripod.com/MAINPAGE/

This is the playground which I and another founded, organized and with a great group of people, built in 1993, CAMDEN Accessible/Integrated Playground.  At the time it was built, it was considered the largest accessible, and most accessible playground in the world.  It began because of my nephew, Camden, who has special needs and couldn't play on regular equipment with his cousins and brothers, and became a multi-award winning playground from National awards to State and local.

It also opened doors for those with special needs, making playgrounds more accessible (the most accessible before that was only 40%) and helped eliminate prejudism against those with special needs in Rock County, WI.  It also changed the way playground equipment companies made and produced equipment for such playgrounds. (This all information from the equipment companies, and the world-reknown architects).

That was back in 1993..now, 21 years later, the playground is in need of a major rebuild, not only to comply with new standards, but because it's slowly deteriorating.  In order to do this, we must raise $30,000, and the city will donate $70,000. by 2015. 

One of our largest and longest lasting supporters is the South Central Wisconsin Harley Owners Group or SCWHOG, and the Ladies of Harley.  Every year they've done a ride and a silent auction to raise money for this special playground, it is also their longest running fundraiser.

What we are looking for, and yes we are non-profit so if anyone wishes to help us out you can use it on your taxes and we will give a receipt, are donations for the Silent Auction. 

We take smaller items and place them in baskets for things like a "night out" or "family night" or things like that, so anything will help.

Please consider it, especially those of you with homespun talent, we would be honored to have any donations to raise moneyf for this playground which is a model for accessible/integrated playgrounds with over 200 built worldwide from India, Germany, Holland, Canada (several) and all across the USA, as well as many other countries.  It has been visited by over 1.3 million people since 1993.

You can email me at camdenplay@hotmail.com or just let me know here, we'll even pay postage if you need to mail anything, I'll pay for that personally if you donate.

Thank you so much for considering and reading this, it means a lot to all of us. :)
