Ok.

So, is this thread intended to be a tourism advertisement, or are you actually starting a discussion about the weather in Big Bend in October?

So far all he has added to the site is advertising for his commercial business.  Most other forums I am in have a spot for commercial folks to advertise.  I hope David is getting some advertsing revenue for all this promotion.

Yes, this is a topic of the great weather that we have been having lately!  It is awesome for those of you that don't live in the Big Bend, come and enjoy it with us.

By the way, we are NOT a commercial business.  We don't sell anything, and let me know if you find anything for sale on our website.  We are just an information resource about the big bend, and we are here to make sure folks are aware of what's going on in Big Bend. Our website is here to provide information, not to sell anything, for anyone interested in the Big Bend.

Since this forum is title "What's Happening", I thought it was the right place to post a comment on the current weather we are having.  If I posted in the wrong place, please let me know.

I do tolerate VBB and his postings because I have enjoyed traffic from VisitBigBend.com for quite some time, both with this site and Virtual Big Bend.  Yes, he is promoting Visit Big Bend for the sake of Commerce in the Big Bend Region, which I support whole-heartily.  If it was just anyone else, then I'd likely be less tolerant of this from a "newbie" but technically, he's not.  I'm glad I can provide some return on their investment of Virtual Big Bend and Big Bend Chat over the last several years.

Thanks,
David

As the post progresses, three passionate Benders react. One is defending the western front while the others begin to lock up horns in battle. The Lady is dormid,her night in hum has progressed, along the serenade of the coyote. Sheer valiant acts have been unfolded, in her presences they react. And as they get ready to go to war over her, a windbreeze of tranquility reaches their ears....it is the sound of THANK YOU...whispered :eusa_shhh:, that the desert begins to softly  acknowledge to those who have the love to hear.

 Three passionate men. with out doubt come to the defense of the pristine desert, three men do not hesitate for their own lives, their passion is too strong to let such vanal thoughts enter their minds, yet at the end,the voice of enigma settles everything in clear....ALL IS WELL.

 The three sheath thy swords, ever watchful for an intruder to come in.....All is back to peace, all is again in serenity.

 A Sunday morning conversation............... :kaos-cactus06:
Stay thirsty, my friends.
