On July 7, 2012, i joined Spyderlovers.com and it was immediately clear to me that this is a first class forum for any and all Spyder Owners, they can ask questions, watch videos, learn where the next social meeting will be Etc. But i also realized that i would have to contend with certain characters on this site and one in particular that jumped right out at me was Bob Denman, now i was not sure as to what to think of him, but after two months i have grown to enjoy and even laugh at his Help/Rantings/Caricatures/Videos and all around good natured chiding of me and other folks on this site. On September 20th Bob will celebrate his two year anniversary on Spyderlovers.com and I for one want to wish him a Happy Anniversary. Bob was the first one to correctly answer the contest question (7 minutes after the contest started LOL) so he is the first winner but i figured it would be right to select anyone else that guessed correctly so NHOJ will also receive a USB with Rock and Roll Music. As i said in the beginning this was a for fun contest and in the future i may (or you may) do others to call attention to certain events and or people. Bob and Nhoj, please PM me with an name and address to send your prize to.
Thanks to everyone for participating.
