I found this forum by following a trail to find out what happned to NDNDancer on PF. TOTALLY SUCKS that so many have left.

I'm hoping to be able to find out news of Inferno/Del. I was sad and shocked to learn of both her PF banning, and her dire health situation. What a smart, smart, beautiful lady.


Anyway, I'm a Dem from Maine, and am happy to meetcha all. :2wave:
 
Hi jackalope. Welcome to DP.
 
Hiya, Tumbles, thankyou!
 
Welcome to DP, jackalope. I remember you from PF, and plus your avatar is umistakable.

And you're so right about Del.

:2wave:
 
Hi, Gwen, thankyou! I recognize your name too.
 
Hey, Tucker, thanks . Nice to meetcha!
 
Welcome jackalope! :2wave:
 
Hey, Joe . Thx!
 
Bonsoir de France
 
Welcome to the mad house now did you bring any Moxie along with at least a Keg of Sea Dog Summer Ale.:2wave:
 
:





Thx, Scorpion! I brought both for you!!




Ale is blueberry cuz .... it's blueberry season!!


Well ain't that Wicky Good of you now it's funny the Beer Story I go to here in Baltimore has the Blueberry Al which I happen to love and you tried any of there other specialty beers??

So what aprt of the Pine Tree State do you hale from myself Portland via Brunswick.
 

Yes, they have this wicked awesome brewer's festival in the civic center every November. All the local brewhouses are there, you get a little glass and go around sampling teeny tiny glasses of all the specialty brews. We went three years, but haven't been since the 90s. I really really really love the seasonal beers. Gritty's Halloween Ale and Shipyard's Summer Ale are real good! I know I've tried other SeaDog ales, but the gritty's and shipyard's are the ones that come to mind right now. :lol:

I'm in Portland :mrgreen:
 

Yea the beerfest is always a fun time I like Shipyard there Winter Al is very smooth, have you had a chance to go over to Sebago Brewing Compnay either out at the Mallor the one down in the Old Port if not go ask for the Black and Tan you will die trust me on this.:mrgreen:

So what part of Ptown do you live in I used to live on Sherman street right behind the Catholic Chruch. I miss allot of fun stuff in Ptown like Geno's, First Friday Art Walk,White Heart,Big Easy and actually getting to see rustic Overttones anLoverless play live all friends of mine.

Hey have you gone to the new Club that used to be The Stadium if so how is it.
 

I live on the outskirts of Ptld, not downtown. I know your area real well tho, hubs business is very close. They are tearing up the Public Market for parking (yuck), and just did a huuuugge reno of the Y last year. No, 2 years ago? The State Theatre hasn't had concerts for a few years, some problem, I can't remember exactly what. Sorry, no, not a clubber, just recently an empty nester (daughter left for college in VT last Sept). Cool **** on the bands, Scorp. Maybe I will rediscover my youth, and enjoy the city finally. Yarmouth Clam Festival is this weekend (I know, not Ptld, but still great). Went and saw a play up at Monmouth Theater last weekend, and Heritage Days in Bath on the 4th. Ever go there? They had these great old firetrucks, from the 1800s. Pretty neat to see them.

Sebago Brewing ... Black and Tan. On my list now, will do this summer :mrgreen:
 

Wow they are tearing the Market up for parking, wow do you recall when they first open it up saying how it was going to help bring folks back to the city what a joke most of the store were way over priced and hell I could get most of he fresh stuff at the Tues/Friday Farmers market held in the Square.

As for The State yea I could go into that since I used to have studio on the third floor, let just say cocain and a crazy owner aren't a good thing. :shock:

Yea I've been to heritage Day in bath i grew up in Brusnwci so we would make the trip over to Bath. Clam Festival this weekend have fun eat plenty Steamers for us.
 


Yes on the Market ... really beautiful building and space, and such a waste with everything being way too overpriced. Was always empty, 'cept for tourists in summer. Not at all was Mrs. Noyce would have had in mind, I don't think (the lady behind the foundation that funded it ... October Foundation, is it?).

LOL on the State owners. I've heard many a tale. Someone who works for my hubs used to work for them. They are crazy, yea? Aren't they the people who kidnapped their adult daughter in hopes of forcing her to have an abortion?

You bet on the steamers :mrgreen: .... but dammit I think it's going to RAIN again this weekend. :doh I'm hoping to find a glassmaker at the booths. Our daughter bought hubs a little bunny figurine from there a few years ago, but it broke this summer. I was checking out the artists' booths up in Bath on the 4th hoping to find one, but no luck (I thought you might have been there before, seeing as you said you were from Ptld via Brunswick ).


ps - lobstah $3.99/lb this week! Fisherman's Net, fresh offa de boat.
 


:tink: ~Tashah~

Hi, Shep, thx! Man, there sure are. Most of the quality posters that I remember inspiring me to join up at PF in April are here. Wandered off into RL, and it looks like I missed some kind of big fat board explosion. Glad I missed that. Really really sad about Inferno .... such an impressive person .... glad to have found a place where people appear to discuss with vigor and not trolling, and seem to have fun too :mrgreen:
