Staying in Touch with Players This is the first edition of our e-mail Newsletter. I hope this will help us stay in contact with all our players and let them know what’s going on in the channel. If a player disappears for a time we all wonder and worry about them. If one of our players is sick, having a computer problem, or just has to be away for a while and you know about it, let the channel owner know so others can be made aware of the reason for their absence. Maybe that person doesn’t know just how important they are to us – and how much they are missed when they’re not around. LET THEM KNOW WE CARE! Player Birthdays
Player News From ^Claire^: I guess our news has to do with Laser
Gallery. The website is fully operational now, with credit card processing. And
we will be vendors at dog shows throughout the fall season. More news: We have adopted our second
Lhasa Apso - a 2 year old
rescue named Benji, who is a total delight. Missy,
my 6 year old Lhasa Apso,
dearly loves him and shares all her possessions (including her humans) with
him. Having two is twice as delicious as having one! Lotsa
hugs! www.lasergallery.com

Welcome New Players
Take time to welcome all new players to our game channel! “Channel Rules” I’ve been asked several times if the channel has “rules”. Although we are very tolerant (except for bad language), there are some rules. Go to the website at http://chat_trivia.home.comcast.net/rules.htm and review the general rules for our game channel. Web Links Here are a few links that might be of interest to you. If you would like your website featured in the newsletter, or if you have a favorite that people might find useful, please let me know and I’ll put them here.

There’s been a lot of new “worms” out there causing a lot of headaches. Your virus protection program can only protect you if you have the current viruses listed in your program. Updating daily – or weekly – can save you a lot of problems. Recipes – Feature of the
month With Thanksgiving not too far away, here’s a recipe I think you will all enjoy: Jackie's
Scrumptious Pumpkin Torte This recipe has been our all-time favorite at
Thanksgiving for years, instead of plain ol'
pumpkin pie. It takes about 30 minutes to make, but is well worth the
time it takes. We like it not overly sweet, since it is very rich
(because of the cream cheese.) Enjoy! Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until slightly
brown. Allow the crust to cool while preparing the other layers. Pour over and spread evenly over the graham cracker crust. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes or until set,
but not brown. In medium saucepan, stir together pumpkin and
remaining milk, sugar, spices and beaten eggs. Heat until mixture is well
cooked and thickened. Lastly, add softened gelatin/milk mixture and stir
well. (Taste to see if sweet enough for you, If not, add more brown
sugar.) Remove from stove and allow to cool
to warm. Pour and evenly spread pumpkin mixture over the cream
cheese layer. Cover with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate until
the pumpkin layer is cold. Before serving, cut into squares and add a dollop of
whipped topping on each square such as Cool
Whip, real whipped cream, or Dream Whip. Serves 9. Food For Thought
