A Message from the Management: News & Notes 11-24-08

Contributor Telvin Bartruss has recently let me know that he is not able to post here anymore due to priorities in real life. We here at the Closet are forever grateful for the valuable contributions Telvin has made to the blog during this year. We wish Telvin farewell and best wishes in all of his endeavors. We hope Telvin can drop by and say hello sometime.

Later this week, the Thanksgiving holiday takes place here in America. I will most likely be with my family during the last part of this week. We'll be feasting on the traditional Thanksgiving meal. After we are through stuffing ourselves, we'll probably sit on the sofa or some other furniture and watch the Dallas Cowboys play American-style tackle football against some other team. On the following day, we may fight the crowds and shop for stuff on sale in either the malls or the big-box chain stores. However, I'll try to sneak on the web and put out posts during this time. Just in case anything doesn't show up from me for the next several days, you'll know why. To my fellow dwellers of the U.S. of A., I would like to, in advance, wish you all a happy Thanksgiving. I hope that your turkey or whatever you decide to eat turns out delicious and you don't end up with too many leftovers.

The first 10 people to the Rapidshare links can get the file. You have to be quick or else miss out. That's because Rapidshare, in its collective wisdom, has decided that files, not uploaded by a premium member or anyone with a collectors' account, can only be downloaded 10 times. The 'bee' is not a premium member and it doesn't have a collectors' account as I have found out from several of this blog's visitors. So, if you're not one of the lucky first 10 folks, at least you're not totally out of luck. You have three other options left although those options may or may not work for people in different parts of the world. I'm searching for other services to use. At the present, I have decided to alternate between Mediafire and the 'bee' in upcoming posts.

That's it from me for now. Thanks for reading and take care.

  2. I am just curious - it just a matter of a second to create free Collector’s Account - why not to do so

  4. Thank you nurse,
    I don't want people to get the wrong idea that the Cowboys are my favorite team which they're not. Their game will be the only entertainment available on the TV after the family is finished eating the big meal.

    To anonymous,
    You're right. It would only take a few seconds to create a collector's account. It's that I really dislike Rapidshare right now. I was willing to deal with Rapidshare in the past despite all of the crap it has done. If someone else posts something I really want and has it posted on RS, I'll still get it there. Yet, I draw the line with this 10-downloads limit.
