Military Memorabalia Enthusiast Request
Now Playing: fwd: email
Topic: Post 3274
My name is Wayne Roberts and in 2008, at the age of 46, I became disabled. Things I use to take for granted, I can no longer afford. We recently had our home foreclosed on, and had to move.

To deal with some Depression issues I was having, my therapist suggested I get a hobby. I decided to collect Military Memorabilia from around the World, with a focus on Commemorative/Challenge Coins, Patches (Unit, M.P. & Fire Unit), and Lapel Pins.

Being on a VERY fixed income, this has been a slow developing hobby. I was wondering if you might have anything you might be able to send me relevant to your Location?  I am a big admirer of all Military personnel, and you are to be commended for your dedication and the service you provide.

ANYTHING you might be able to send me would be greatly appreciated and you have my sincerest thanks. If not, God Bless and I wish you much prosperity in the future.

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration, and have a Safe and Happy 2012!

Hobbs VFW Member's Website Hacked
Topic: General Information

Right around Christmas one of our VFW member's website, Initial Impression.biz, was hacked and for a brief time was showing an extremist militant group logo from somewhere in Germany.  They evidently also were able to send out fraudulent mass emailings using the site.  Shortly thereafter, the site/server was deemed unreachable by this Webmaster, and I have been unable to gain access to the site or retrieve the original files from the site server.  Support tickets to the site Host have proven fruitless, and apparently the access password has been changed.

So, I have rebuilt the site using a more secure host, and for those of you who may be interested in doing business with Carolyn Huerta's Initial Impression business, her new site is: http://www.initialimpression.info

 

DART TOURNAMENT
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: DART TOURNAMENT

I am happy to say that the Dart Tournament held Friday went great.  We had a few new faces and they seem to be enjoying themselves. Thanks I believe to the Newspaper, Radio and of course to our new outdoor sign.

There were 6 teams in the Tournament.

1st place went to Howard and Smokey

2nd place went to Dennis and Tiny

3rd place went to Tammy and David.

New faces in the Tournament were Tony and Jose of Hobbs. We had a few late phone calls for the Tournament.

I want the thank Glenda for helping with sales of the Triple Shot tickets.  David's number was called.  He had to hit the triple 7.  Sorry David.

Triple Shot pot is now right at $300. ( $100 per triple dart)

Hope to see you again next Tournament.

                FYI TO ALL.

                Dave's brother is a very advanced programmer who does computer work for a living and has a high up status with Microsoft. He doesn't send these if they aren't real. If he says this is for real, it for sure is. Be aware.

                VIRUS COMING !

                Hi All,

                I checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing up for this virus!

                I checked Snopes, and it is for real. Get this E-mail message sent around to your contacts ASAP.
                PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS!


                You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any message with an attachment entitled POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK, regardless who sent it to you. It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which 'burns' the whole hard disc C of your computer.

                This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list. This is the reason why you need to send this e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to receive this
                message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it.

                If you receive a mail called' POSTCARD,' even though sent to you by a friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately. This is the worst virus announced by CNN.

                It has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the
                Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is
                kept.

                COPY THIS E-MAIL, AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS.

                REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US
