Silent Comedy Mafia.com's 1st Anniversary

Postby Richard M Roberts » Mon Jun 07, 2010 1:52 am

Hey Gang,

I know we're all too darn busy being exited about the Chaplin Discovery and the Slapsticon, but hey, it just dawned on me that June 1st was our First Anniversary!

Happy Birthday to Us.

Well Jeez, I know we're all abuzz with other stuff going on, but I'd think a few congratulations were in order. We've done quite a bit this first year, a little celebrating should be posted!

In other words, I CAN'T HEAR YOUUUUUUUUU!

I celebrated by re-reading RMR's wonderful "As I Was Saying..." essay.

Happy Anniversary, Godfathers.

Happy Anniversary to SCM! I remember talking to Richard at Cinevent last year before it went live and have been bowled over by the breadth of information I have learned from everyone involved since then. Let's hope for many more years of good conversations and discoveries!

Indeed Mr G., what needs be said is a major thank-you to those who have supported, contributed, and even just read this newsgroup in the last year. We all make it what it is.A Laurel and Hardy handshake to you one and all, here's to better things in this new second year, and the real celebration will be at Slapsticon in the coming month.

See Ya All Soon!
