CT POLL: How Would You Describe Chez Tremblay?
David:
The problem I see is that the name "Chez Tremblay" and the purpose of the group have two different meanings.
"Chez Tremblay" sounds like a French sidewalk cafe to me. Hardly the title of a Campsite up on Brokeback.
I like the Idea of us being a Campsite or Campfire to gather round and chat, but the title name doesn't fit it.
But "Tremblay" obviously was our safe haven during the troll wars. So many don't want to lose that heritage.
So Chez Tremblay sounds more like a Cyber Cafe to me. But the Campfire Chat is more appropriate. Two great ideas, but they don't sound good combined to me.
Just my $0.02 :-\

Diner, cafe, etc. don't summon the happiest image, from a BBM perspective. How about "The BetterMost Cafe: Wanna piece of apple pie, don'tcha?" :laugh: Kidding. (Though on some days, it would be appropriate!)

How about "That place in Dubois: Want gut cramps don'tcha? Pull yer guts out hand over hand a yard at a time?"
I think that has a certain je ne sais quoi AND is faithful to the original story.

Hi David, I love being missed. :) I was AWOL for the last five days, but even before that, I was feeling that way about YOU. We haven't been overlapping as much.
Where ya been? Ain'tcha got those notes I left at your place? (just kidding - I'm doing my Cassie impersonation.)
:)
UPDATE: Whoa! This was my 3000th post. It snuck up on me.
Meryl:
Welcome back, Clarissa, and Happy 3000th! 8)

I see what you're saying, David. I wish the two were more compatible, too. But in the end, I think what happens on the forum is the most important thing. People who are curious about the French name can find the explanation in the Welcome thread.
Far and away, the most popular description is the Campfire, so I'm just going to make a commitment to the following, and if people would say "Yea" or "Nay" I would appreciate it:
Chez Tremblay
