Why yes! Most assuredly, cheese racing is an under appreciated art form that should be allowed the freedom of expression that competitive under-water basket weaving and blind-folded fly tying enjoy! And let us not forget the oppression that, up until recently, competitive high-speed wool gathering suffered from, oh No!

I say, if cheese racing is hidden and made to feel 'dirty' then two things will happen.... The children will sneak behind the gym wall and do it until all hours of the night and even twice on weekends and we ALL know where that leads us to! Yes, I'll say it, teenage cottage cheese abuse. There. I said it, by god someone has to face the truth. And last but not least, if Cheese Racing is outlawed, then only Minor Town Officials will have cheese!

*This message was transferred with a trial version of CommuniGate(tm) Pro* Folk,

There is trouble in paradise. I hesitate to bring this up lest it
lead to both parties being flamed. And yet...

Okay, here is the issue. JugglerMouse wants to also include Cheese
Racing at the October 4th event in SLO, CA
http://webpages.charter.net/astroweaver/letterboxing/meadow.html

Now, I must tell you that JugglerMouse is a fine letterboxer, great
carver and a terrific gal (cute, too.) However, I must protest that
this mania for Cheese Racing has taken over enough lives already.

Please help me out. I have created a poll up in the poll section for
you to vote. Let JugglerMouse and me know whether or not you think
that Cheese Racing should or should not be included in letterboxing
events. I just hope that there are enough concerned parents out there
who feel as I do. But I do not wish to influence you in anyway.

Respectfully submitted,
Sir Balthazar of 10**100D
P22 F71 X22 E2

With a capitol "T" that rhymes with "P" that stands for "pool" Oh yes, we
surely got trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble . . .


What? I'm hurt. You go to the time to mention the importance of underwater
basket weaving, but neglect the ever important underwater bebee stacking?

That's it! I'm thinking about leaving the list! :-) :p
