Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Who do I see
about . . . ?
A. No one.
Remember the first rule is: there are no rules. The second is: no one is in charge. While we (Jim and Dave) have invested the
time and effort to get this off the ground, and have an understandable pride in
the initial success, we have no desire to regulate what other activities may or
may not be spawned from the gathering.
Q. Why don’t we do
this on Sunday mornings too?
A. There is
nothing preventing anyone from visiting the donut shop any and every morning. From our perspective, however, we don’t want
to wear out our welcome in the shopping center, so we won’t promote it. Our better halves might cry foul if we get
too carried away with this. Besides,
Dave often flies his model airplanes early on Sundays, and Jim likes to sleep
in.
Q. Have you thought about organizing a cruise
night or other nighttime gathering?
A. No, we have taken on enough already. Besides, Jim turns into a pumpkin at sundown,
and Dave is often busy on the website.
If someone else is interested in organizing one, we will sure support and
promote the effort.
Q. Are you going to do a T-shirt?
A. No. If
someone else wants to do a T-shirt, fine.
Perhaps Sam could sell them in his donut shop. It is important to us to keep this endeavor
pure fun and untouched by hierarchy, rules, OR money.
Q. Could we do a swap meet?
A. Already some swapping has occurred and a car
changed hands. We have no grief with
that. We would have a problem with laying
parts out on the parking lot, which could invite difficulties with the City or the
management of shopping center.
