Events 11/2/09

I have new MyBuffalo.com cards. Please set up plans with me to either pick up the cards in person or I can mail them to you. Since the Rack’em Up contest is over, we must use these new cards at all events.

Have you noticed problems with the site over the last three days? If so, we know about them and are working quickly to resolve the issues with our vendors. Thank you for your patience.

Please refrain from calling or texting me after 10pm, unless there’s an emergency.
