Hey, I was just checking out the new photo of Maggie and I had a brilliant idea!!!!

We could do our own calendar!!!

Maybe a NUDE calendar?? Hmmmm? Okay, maybe NOT a nude calendar. Besides, that's already been done. Sooo 2003. Let's do something different. Better.

There's thirteen photos on there now and we could each have a month with our leader on the cover. We could add hobbbies and bios and our best posts and jokes and kids and pets and gardens and....

I've seen software that does it. It could be online for downloading????

Wouldn't that be fun!!!! I'm all excited!!!

I say we do it. Or maybe the brilliant folks on here have already done it before I got here. ??? I could try to find the software if anyone is interested.

Uh oh, wait a minute...I say the queen can be on the cover, or maybe smilin because it's her idea.

Oh no, the cover must be our fearless LEADER!!!

smile

what a cool idea! Glad we got similin to think for us! you go girl!

I like it. I did a calendar for my sis and she loved it so much she kept it in her car and everywhere she went, she pulled it out and said "hey, let me show you this!" Oh brother...but it had her and her hubby, their farm, their children, grandchildren, their Harley's and their critters. It was fun to do, and I used Microsoft word to do it. I say let's go for it.

Yep, Ms D on the front, hands down!

Heyyyyyyy.....I like that idea! Not to mention that if we had those calendars up at work, or had a few to give to friends... it would SOOOOOO promote the site and bouy Dot's book along. I've enjoyed this site so much, and it's always uplifting, and fun... that others should know about it, and what better way than a 'visual'.

It's a rhetorical question.

Okay JJ, I looked in Word, nothing recognizable as a calendar program on mine. I looked online. 1,414,86 possibilities, but which one???

Where or where is my previous admin. assistant, Hannah, the computer genius? Actually she's in Israel for six months or something... No help there.

This may be too hard for me.

Maybe I'm just the idea person, not the calendar person. I'm a Komputer klutz. I'll probably still be working on my website at the Second Coming.

We need someone who knows what they're doing here!!!

smile

P.S. Maybe we could all do some kind of collage for our calendar page with our picture and bio and hobbies, etc. so it would promote not only Boomer women, but our writing, knitting, beading, ets. as well. Of course we would need to promote boomer women speak on each page as well. ???

Software programs for calendar, card, etc. making can be bought at Sam's or WalMart for around $15. Kinko's or other office copy places will spiral bind them - not sure of the cost.

Great idea , although can we get it out in time to still be relevant for 2004?

OF COURSE Dotsie should be on the cover

When I first saw the listing for this topic, before I read the posts, I thought OMIGOD a nude calendar I will go to the gym 10,000 times this week!! I will jog through my town until the neighbors call the police and report me as a nuisance! We need a new forum section called "lettuce!"

Anyone for a 7-gallon bottle of water?

Hey Meredith, calm down. Why would we resort to diet and exercise? We have COMPUTERS!!!

Can anyone say 'photo alteration'?? They did it for Oprah, why not us... We can put our heads on somebody else's body. Hmmmm. I think I'll take Pamela Andeson's? Or Nicole Kidman? Maybe Cher? (Naw Cher's too old, I wanna' lose a few years -- no I wanna' lose a whole bunch of years.) I know I'll take Britany Spears?

YESSIRREE!! The possibilities are endless. ---- And most important, they're exercise free!!! WHOOPEE!!! Nude calendar here I come!!!!
