I don't think you have seen my email ever! I'm new to this list, I just joined this week after I found it on a Google search. Maybe I should introduce myself. My name is Katharine and I'm from Doylestown, PA. I've loved Queen all my adult life. I did not attend the conventions the past several years because I'm too afraid to fly and haven't traveled alone anywhere. I hope there will be one near my area in the future. I really feel like I have missed out, from what I have been reading so far.
By the way, "mmemercury", do you like seafood? We have a lot of the fresh kind here but it's shrimp and not prawns. I'm not really fond of those, they're too hard to digest!

ed: amazing that this person knew of the 'prawn' reference...an outfit that LJG wore at the 2002 convention. And the 'signoff quote' comment change later on was just as cute.

I have heard something about it from several people... Joe, could you tell us the whole story? Because I still have no idea what's going on (besides the fact that Lisa uses two nicknames).

I just checked out that thread as well, and it was almost embarassing how obvious it was that musicalprostitute is Lisa.

Weird and embarassing, but nevertheless intriguing.

Oh my goodness.
What slings and arrows we heave.
I am NOT "musicalprostitute" and I want to clarify that here and NOW. My screen name on the left is what you see and what you get!
"Jgoodm", you are the one with the problem here. Your accusations are not amusing to anyone but yourself. You think you're the Queen authority but alas you're not, and quit trying to pretend to be. The only Queen authority I know of is Greg Brooks, and I take his word above anyone's except the actual band members.
I don't try to stir things up but I am now. You are making me sick of your accusations and you need to stop it now. Harrassment is harrassment, you know.

Who was the sex offender?

Jake or Ted?


Jake was/is the john deere offender :P

I was curious about that too, and what the whole thing has to do with Queen or the conventions. I'm confused but taking no sides.

I promised to Lisa in an e-mail response to stop the bashing on Queenzone (because I thought the topic would die). Oh well

Thanks to those who explained me the whole situation via email.

Which is not good news for you, Lisa...

I see there are too many superegos here. I think it's better to be simple small and pure collector, to have some mp3&mpg collections and join them very much.

I wish somebody would explain to me via email what is going on, because I am confused.

What the uninformed do not know about collecting...
I do not question insurance appraisers...do you? If they appraise collectibles at a certain amount, then granted they know what they're doing. I have had this done yearly for the past seven years, I have to, it's part of my homeowners insurance (rider for collectibles). I failed to mention (no, I am not "puffing up' about this) that I have Queen things in duplicate, triplicate and quadruplicate. I was in the record business and these were things that were given to me in bulk quantities, so that's why I have literally hundreds of Queen items, promotional and otherwise. The rest were purchased new and everything in the collection is in mint condition in a nonsmoking environment.
"Joe", I thought your wife's name was Susan. "Mmemercury" says her name is Teri. Hmm....
And for the record I did not insult ANYBODY. You're the one doing the insulting around here.
And if anyone believes the garbage he spews about my not being a Queen fan from the beginning...gee, I've been posting on this group for almost three years now. Really strange I would start "inventing" another identity! I don't have cute screen names like a lot of you do, I list my legal given name as my screen name. Strange thing in this day and age.
Comparing me to Mahler? Give me a break! I don't go on and on and on like a college professor (like you do, Joe), I talk about the band and don't get PERSONAL. You do not know me personally, Joe, you know me through the Breakthru list and meeting at the conventions. You have NO right to judge me! Spreading horrible rumours about me and others makes you look like a joke.
So leave me alone. I have nothing more to say about any of the tripe on this thread, which started out innocently enough about a record collection and turned into an avalanche of hate mail. As far as I am concerned, this thread has ended as of NOW.

A pity that I have to reply

" "Joe", I thought your wife's name was Susan. "mmemercury" says her name is Teri. Hmmm...."

I guess perhaps it's selective memory. Here's a couple posts from the con thread. Seems she made it pretty clear who she was way back when.

I know for a fact that Joe and Paul and the rest worked very hard as committee members. The fact that some people actually re-up is amazing, considering all the abuse and whine they get.
I can assure you that Joe does not have an acid perspective; he is realistic and practical. And honest.
As for Nashville, after the hockey game I'd drag him to the Hard Rock and then we'd drive outta there, over to visit Ricky!!! :-)

The best attendance was the first year (2001). I remember seeing standing-room-only in the ballrooms, and it was wonderful meeting the people I had been conversing with online for so many months. Made quite a few close ones too.
Anyone who has attended all three thus far probably has a lot of memories of good times.

care to try and sling mud at my wife one more time?

Joe, Susan, and gang+

Well, since you posted your insurance assessors opinions, some of us have commented on them. You may accept blankly everything he says, but your premiums are being inflated by the over-valuing of items, in my opinion. If you ever need to claim, be assured that the insurance company will not pay out at those valuations. They will start looking more deeply, and will probably wipe off half of the value.

I'm not getting into all the personal stuff - not interested. All I've ever said is that Lisa's insurance assessor is not, in my opinion, reliable.

The value of Lisa's collection is certainly very far from the $23000 but that's not the point anymore, P_G ...
