  1. The Chuckle of the Day (CotD)

    I created it on May 13, 2005, to add a little visual food humor to r.f.c
    for the enjoyment of the members. I got a sweet and sour response that
    never ended.

    My idea was to make it seem like an imaginary business with staff that
    always got one Chuckle of the Day (CotD) out on time at 5:00am every day to
    r.f.c.

    I thought it was very original and fitting.

    The responses were more enjoyment than "the job." Thanks to those who
    enjoyed it. It was a pleasure of my life.

    Like a play on Broadway, it had a good run.

    "If we've made you chuckle, we've done our job."

    Thank to the staff who helped out and made it almost feel like a real
    business.

    Thank you for your efforts that brought laughter, fun and happiness
    into my mornings, they were greatly appreciated by at least one who
    never quite got around to thanking you during the "good run."

    Damn! I knew your alarm clock would break someday. Thank you for the
    good times - while they lasted.

    You've sent many good vibes my way with your light hearted posts and
    daily diversions. Your humor was greatly appreciated by me (and more
    than a "few" others here).

    Luv,

    G'day Andy,

    I can remember it starting, but I can't remember it being that long
    ago! [One of the problems with aging -- everything happened at least
    twice as long ago as you "remember"!]

    What a great idea it would be to have an email list of anyone who wants

    Maybe a cat lovers mailing would be appropriate too?

    ObFood- It is SilkNog time!! I've never enjoyed soy milk before but I
    love this stuff and in particular with a little Bailey's Irish Cream in
    it. That was my breakfast this morning. I'm going to bring a carton in

    Thanks for a daily laugh, for being responsive to suggestions to
    improve the overall experience, and for labeling the COTD so that
    those who didn't care for it could just ignore it.

    Filtering (or KF) is just too difficult for the truly lazy and

    directly. Those that don't know what a filter or KF are bray the
    loudest since it interferes with their pleasures directly.

    Like you, I enjoyed Andy's often OT comics. It's certainly better
    than the noise the polute the 'group with [censored]' and moanin' and
