I can tell you that Angus is real! I saw him getting tossed from Ragland Road the other night.... I think he was getting a little close to the dancing girls! _________________ Up or Down North, South, East, or West An Adventurer's Life is Best! |

Wait wait... did I miss something? I didn't catch the announcement because I'm drowning in work. From what I gather, UAB is NOT closing it's doors? Before I freak out and get all hardcorehappy, I figured I'd ask before making a fool of myself, lol.
If so, then I need to draw a UAB Angus image as soon as I get the time to! |

I'm with dyemooch, Haven't heard the announcement yet. Seeing other people's response's though looks to be a positive outcome?
When's the next time it'll be replayed?
Want to make sure I'm not going to loose my briar patch. |

OK. Now I feel like a heel. I missed this and I posted about how I can get this sites music for the future. I also just put up a dedication to all here and I will look like an idiot. Oh well, I could just say oops.
I am doing cart wheels. Ouch my back
I guess I'm back.
You aren't going to take away all my miles are you????

If you're listening now, it'll be on right after the jungle noise from Indy.
We'll be posting the entire transcript of the announcement as soon as possible.
But in short, UAB is here to stay! _________________ When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

I seriously have tears in my eyes. I'm so glad UAB is not going dark. Knowing that someday my own children would only know the magic of UAB through stories and a few mp3s really hit home. But after hearing theEpiphany's heart felt word's I'm over joyed to know it's not going to become another extinct attraction after all. My brother, Savetheking87, and I hear by pledge our undying support to keeping this beautiful community alive for "Tommorow's child"

As I finally heard the announcement I too found myself with tears in my eyes. Wifey looked at me and asked "What's wrong?" I I told her the GREAT news and she said so why are you crying are you going to care this much when are baby gets here? I told her well no probably not as I have not invested as much time or interest and have been given great joy by the baby that is not here yet. Unlike the great joy when I was down and UAB was there to pull me up to make me feel better allowing me to escape. .... Of course this is just a fabrication she actually said, "I am happy for you but why is that song, Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow, playing? I hate that song! I am going to sign up just to tell them." So, my tears turned to laughter as I turned up the volume. _________________ Jason

This is the first piece of good news in what has been for me a not very good week. Thanks UAB Admins. |

So, where is the full transcript? I have to admit, I've been away since the first announcement, a couple of months ago.
As far as all of us helping out more, why not make the monthly goal higher? Would that help?
Anyway, thanks from me, too. There are a few sites with music, but the community here is unbeatable, and the way the site is set up is by far the best.
(also, whatever happened to the link to the store? Would that help financially, too?) |

A transcript of the announcement will be up either tonight or tomorrow.
We are planning to raise the goal but we haven't had the time yet to change the Paypal Module.
We're all grateful about how the members feel about the site and it's content. We've worked hard to make the site what it is, but remember that it's you, the members that made it a home.
We had removed the Cafe Press site quite some time ago, partially due to the lack of time to update products, but also because no one was shopping there. If everyone could give us ideas of what they'd like to see for merch, we'd be happy to consider it. _________________ When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

Thanks for the quick response. I've noticed that usually toward the end of the month, just enough comes in. It seems like everyone's willing to pony up a little more. Great to see all the support in keeping this community together.
I always liked the T-shirt designs. I know there isn't much profit in stickers, but they're always fun and look good on the cover of a laptop. Anyone else? |

I know I don't get here much anymore, but I was very excited to hear you weren't closing the doors I do more listening than posting when I do get here and it's going to be great to still come here and get my Disney fix!!
Besides, there would be no living with GrumpyDaddy. Without his UAB fix every day he'd be even Grumpier than usual _________________ Kathy
