DOD Newsletter, Your Chance To WIN!!!

Hello everyone, I hope this newsletter finds you all well, and not too soggy in the rainy areas. I saw on the news that some places are getting tornadoes and others being evacuated due to flooding. We don’t live in either of these areas, and I hope none of you do either. We had a bad flood here a few years ago when a dam up on the hill went over its banks, we had several feet of water in the basement and we couldn’t even cross the street because it was all running down the road like it was a river. It has been raining here for days now, we are very damp, but it really hasn’t cooled down much, just staying muggy and humid.

Hello everyone, I hope this newsletter finds you all well, and not too soggy in the rainy areas. I saw on the news that some places are getting tornadoes and others being evacuated due to flooding. We don’t live in either of these areas, and I hope none of you do either. We had a bad flood here a few years ago when a dam up on the hill went over its banks, we had several feet of water in the basement and we couldn’t even cross the street because it was all running down the road like it was a river. It has been raining here for days now, we are very damp, but it really hasn’t cooled down much, just staying muggy and humid. I am sure out basement is starting to fill up with water, but I haven’t gotten up the courage to look down there yet. It is always damp, so therefore full of mold and fungi, which I am seriously allergic to, and I didn’t feel like having an asthma attack just to see what is going on down there. We don’t store anything down there, other than the furnace, hot water heater and such, everything else either belongs to our landlord, or is garbage and junk left by previous tenants, we learned with the last flood not to store anything down there. LOL!

I also have an announcement to make in this newsletter, a new moderator has joined our ranks, she is a very helpful and friendly person that is a definite asset to DOD, and I am sure you will all enjoy getting to know her, so join us in welcoming katInhats:

Welcome Kats

Now, I owe you guys another game so someone else can win another great prize from DOD. Some people thought the last one was too hard and confusing, so I have been thinking on this one for awhile so I could plan it out and make it a little easier. This one is going to be a trivia game, throughout this newsletter, I am going to ask 10 DOD trivia questions, so yes, they will all have to do with DOD, which means you will have to refer to the site to find the answers. Some of them you might find easily, and some might require doing a search on the site to find the answers. I will let this contest run for 48 hours from when our wonderful newsletter person (J) sends this one out to subscriber’s emails. This one is going to be a little different though, instead of awarding the prize to the first person who emails me with the correct answers, everyone who sends me an email with the correct answers to all 10 questions in that 48 hour time period will have their name put in a drawing, from which my 11 year old son will pull the winner. The prize this time will be the DVD from the Land Before Time Series “Invasion of the Tinysauruses.” So get ready to find some answers and send them to me at verwon@gmail.com Copy & Paste of the answers into the email that you send me IS acceptable so you can save some work on typing.

Here we go, question 1 What is the title, date, and time, of the earliest thread, started by me, that you can locate on the DOD forums? Now, remember, this is a thread started by me, so not a post in response to someone else’s thread.
