Well, that about does it.  Parents and friends are preparing to converge on Colorado Springs for Parents Weekend.  Cadets will see their families.  I think its about time for WebGal and I to call it quits.

 

It has been a wonderful time for us, meeting you through emails and calls.  I hope you got a lot of good information from us, while having fun at the same time.

(1) Here is our parting gift to the high-speed internet folks. 
WebGal and I have loaded the video clips you saw during BCT up on a server for you to download onto your computer.  All you need to do is go to this page.

http://www.usafaclasses.org/2010/WebGuyNotes/WebGuyVideoClips.htm


If you want to download the clip,
  put your cursor over the link and press your right mouse button.  When the window opens up, click on "Save Target as".  Then, simply save the file to where you want it on your hard drive.

For you dial-up people, don't do this or else you will be downloading until your cadet graduates.

(2) Here is the WebGuy gift to the folks who pre-ordered the Photo DVD and are dial-up people.
(I have a soft spot in my heart for those suffering with dial-up like I do)

 

Hold on.  Still typing...
 

Last week I went out and bought hundreds of blank DVDs. 
(Note to AOG Vice President - I did not use any AOG money for this.  Just mine.)

S
orry for the diversion...had to keep my job.
 

Wait, another note:
(Note to Mrs. WebGuy - Uh, honey.  About using our money.  Don't worry. 
I think the 19th anniversary is the 7-11 Big Gulp anniversary.  So I got you covered.)  

 

Sorry for the 2nd diversion...had to keep my marriage.


Since then, I have been going home each night and burning the video clips that you saw in BCT onto the DVDs --- one DVD at a time.  But also, I added some clips that were not seen during BCT. 
(Woo Ha Ha! - Bonus Clips)
The bonus clips are nothing cosmic.  Just some extra shots around the place.

 

I'm finished 200 already, and I'll keep burning them tonight, tomorrow night, and Thursday night, as long as the NoDoz holds out.  Since there have been a little under 300 of the Photo DVDs ordered, I'll produce 350 of the homemade video clips DVD and stop. 
(Quality? Hey, it's a freebie done on my home computer.  As long as it doesn't self-destruct like Mission Impossible, I'll consider it a success) 

When you pick-up your pre-ordered Photo DVD, just shout-out "Yo WebGuy, show me da clips"!

If you do that with a good enough Rocky Balboa accent, I'll hand you a Video Clip DVD. 

If your accent isn't good, I'll still give you the Video Clip DVD, but I'll also taunt you.

P.S.

Also, I'll talk to WebGal about those folks who ordered their Photo DVD to be shipped.  I'll give her copies to put into the shipment, so those folks will be covered.

Whew!

Again, it's been a wonderful experience working with all of you.  I wish you and your cadet the best here at the Academy.  To put it simply -- the Academy is the place to be!

 

WebGal, any final words????

 

WebGal Here

Of course I have final words.  I had a lot of fun taking photos and especially when the basics posed for me. Meeting parents during the parades was very important to me, knowing what I was doing was worthwhile to you all.  As a parent myself I have had a little taste of what is to come.  I hope to see some of you on Friday during Parents Weekend. 

Cheerio - BYE
