Well it's been three happy years since i was joined at the hip with LumberJocks.
I just never knew anything like it.
But, then what you see now it not what was it was in the beginning. I joined - who knows why. We all signup to some web sites at time and then we never remember where it was that we asked the question. But here Martin would send us an e-mail when anyone posted a reply to our question. Talk about something being unique. Keeping us informed, instead of having to go find the site that we posted the question to see if anyone replied.
Here they did reply, and the replies meant something. It was not a derogitery reply like, "How could you ask such a stupid question?" It was a reply with love to try and help you out with your problem.
How unique.
I asked Martin when I signed up and he said that it was on 5/8/2006. So I guess It's almost the right time. I'm on the road right now and not at my home computer. But, I met with Greg3G at his house today and then we went out for lunch and had a great time. I hope to meet up with Charles Neal tomorrrow at his shop in New Market Virginia. I'll then head home after a mini Lumberjock tour.
Everyone have some Anniversary Cake on me. Send me a picture of what you ate.
Happy Anniversary Karson You were one of the first to welcome me aboard 2 years ago now LJs is part of my daily routine, almost as much fun as being in the shop.
Karson…you are so right about everything…people here care…and I do think you have really helped to set that tone with your energy, sharing and non-stop contributing…there is rarely a blog, forum, project that I go that you have not "been there" and always with a helpful reply, comment or concern…
you are a great person…while you acknowedged Martin and fellow jocks for being responsive…it is you we, I must thank as well…
Congratulations Karson (DAD) ..............................LOL You are our top dog here on LJ's. Number one in posts and also onall the time. Here's to many more years on LJ's and Keep that sawdust flying. I'm still looking for some of that lumber you are planning to share with me.
Hey Jerry, I think that's Top Jock in Karson's case. And, sorry to tell you this but, Karson has decided to give me the lumber he was going to share with you…...just as soon as I can schedule the trip from Texas…..

By the way….Congratulations Karson. Here's to many more LJ anniverseries
-Yes, thanks for your contributions to LJ's and to the Mason-Dixon club… and thanks for inviting me to it. It is becoming contagious, and that isn't all that bad… My only regret? Woodworking can become as expensive as owning a boat… and I have that hobby too… ouch.
Congratulations on three years, Karson. Your blogs have been very informative. We've especially enjoyed learning how to work Corian, and seeing your kitchen progress. But we envy your stash of lumber as well as your location so close to many good sources of materials for LumberJocks.
Thanks for the wealth of information you have contributed for our woodworking growth.
I'll throw in a congrats too!! It's been just over a year since I signed up. I was quite busy at the time and didn't pay much attention until a few months ago. Wish I had started paying more attention here long before I did, Great site and good guys. I celebrated with my wife's raw apple cake. Not to traditional, but every one who tastes it, wants the receipe)
Congratulations Karson. You are a great inspiration for all of us. We will feel forlorn without you. Wish you many more years of active participation at LJ. I will celebrate your anniversary by eating a cake.

There are people who receive a lot of attention for a variety of reasons. Too many of them take that as an opportunity to boast or, worse, preach. You, Karson, on the other hand have become a true friend to those you meet. It's that unique quality that make you part of the foundation of LumberJocks. In my time here it has been a pleasure sharing this space with you. Congratulations and Thank you.
