OMG is the guy on the right named Richard B. If it is whats up bro, It's Nathan from the Surf Club. I havn't seen you in like 5 years. If not, then you look alot like him.

Such a good time hearing TA dj's and bustin it with fine TA dancers. I don't want to put down a list cuz i forgot too many names. Thanx for being awsome everyone. Life is good when we all get together.

Thank you so very much to all of you who were able to make it to the party on Saturday. TAs definitely proved that they have the most heart in the Toronto scene. Sally and Michael wanted the party to be about helping people, wanted it to be a simple reminder of how lucky we all are to have each other and wanted it to be about enjoying the company of good people who are passinate about music, life and friendship. I think you would all agree that their party did just that.

Thank you to all of the DJs who graciously volunteered their time for the event and for delivering the amazing sets that you did. Apologies go out to the guys in the upstairs lounge for the poor set up and sound. With true class and professionalism you all made the best of that less than perfect situation and still delivered wonderful sets. Thank you to all the others who helped out at the event...Margaret, Tara and Aaron... and a big thank you to Emery who helped us with the creation of the CD.

I cannot tell you all how utterly disgusted I was on Saturday when I learned that some person had made the pathetic decision to steal money from a charity. Sally and Michael worked so very hard to put together this event for a cause that would have helped so many families who are in desperate need of a home, food and rebuilding their lives. The fact that some ignorant person decided with one appauling act that their cause was more important than this is beyond my comprehension. Shame on you. As some others have stated above, Karma has its way of showing its face in this world, especially on those who have opted to lead a selfish life, so I can only hope it finds the person who did this. Sally and Michael, you may not be able to hand over the money you had hoped for to Habitat but some horrible things in life are beyond our control. What you should focus on in this case is that you did something great. Please remember that your generousity and kind hearts are an inspiration to the rest of us and your reminder of how lucky we all are is a gift in itself that we thank you for.

I also wanted to let you know that Pattrin, my adopted sister who lives in Phuket, will be sharing the CD with her friends and family in Thailand and she asked me to personally thank everyone involved and everyone who attended the party for their generousity. So, THANK YOU!

That's awesome!

Everyone involved definitely gets a big two thumbs up!

As for the stealing thing...well...karma being what it is; they'll get theirs soon enough.
We can at least all stand up and be very proud of what we accomplished that night.

A couple of questions:
a) Where was the door bouncer at the time of the incident?
b) Who was the monkey who wired the upstairs system? lol...
(they could have at least labelled the wiring...)

C'est la vie, now where's that PAYPAL account?
I'll defintely chip in

Thank You, Heidi, for sharing these heart-felt and warm thoughts! These are the kinds of words and the kind of attitude we should all remember when in an unfortunate situation. ... and this is exactly what I have been going through over the last 8 months ... a draught, a windfall, i even call it the 'quicksand' that i've been in, has ultimately led me to an astonishing relevelation - to stop looking 'at the ground' in tunnelvision, to stop being a victim to my own circumstances and to just start embracing life again, even though I'm broke as hell, as a refugee lawyer stranded, heart-torn and displaced what seems like a refugee myself, overqualified and unemployed. well what can i say? haha! always take life with a grain of salt; u never know what cards u'll be dealt! but you guys proved it again to me on saturday nite, - fuck it all & let's just have a good time!

i wanted to thank all of you, by just being YOU, to share what life is really about - so that i could to get my head out of the sand to start LIVING & being alive again!

dallas, sweety, ~ u deserve it!

tatgirl ~ i hope all goes well in july! fingers crossed, girl! u can do it!

~s*princess ~ our TA Godmother! the secret for silk-e hair is ****

cuzo ~ thanks for recognizing for how long we've not partied together and measuring it at the length of my hair!!! LOL!!!!

thanks to S & M for all of their hard work for putting this on! Margie & Ray, Tara & Matt, Jenna & Mike, Heidi & Aaron, Jeff, MaxQ, RJ, Liam, Christina, Cono-Sur, Endlesswave, Durafei, Highroller, Richart T., Eso, Carlos, Diginut ~ really great seeing you all again! as well as Erica and John, in our thoughts. memories of how it all started ... and how good the good old times were!

last but not least of the outstanding encounters of the nite: LOCA! you brought it all back into perspective!

and of course a special THANK YOU & to my love and rockstar, Richard Raiban, for putting on another brilliant set, even though for only a short part of the nite, by creating an undeniably unforgettable & magical atmosphere, as always!

THANKS to you all!!! What a great nite!

and as for the money - what goes around, comes around. i would not worry, this person will sooner or later, or one way or another, have to pay for what s/he has done. count your losses, lick your wounds, and move on. what counts is the greater message of this event and that's what all this was about.
