LADIEEEEEES AND GENTLEMEEEEEEENNN !!

I ask that you divert your attention to the gorgeous carved plaque I hold in my hands. It adorns the user lookups of some of the finest names in SBG history and may only be so displayed, by the granting powers of a special 3-person force of SBG members. Those 3 wickedly wise and constantly vigil members have now scribed another name into this historic plaque and have asked me to bring it to you tonight.

*Holds plaque high overhead*

"Oppsss, wrong plaque"....

*Holds SBG Member of the Month plaque high overhead*

"what'd ya mean you can't read it?"

*Places huge magnifying glass over plaque*

If you look closely, you can read the hand-carved letters in the area behind the date of September, 2008.

For those in the back, who left your glasses at home, I'll help you out...Happy__K , you are the committee's selection for this month's SBG Member of the Month! (also known to us over on the guild side as happy_alliteration)

Happy has come to our close knit family only recently and has warmed the hearts of everyone she has come in contact with. She has jumped right in to the events committee and became unbeatable help there. She is almost constantly on the guild board, where she offers advice and sometimes even items for new people and questors alike. Most members agree that a more fitting name for this lady is just not available! She hands out her smiles in virtually every post she makes and members look forward to her presence on the message board. When our darling Saundra was temporarily subdued by a hurricane recently, Happy jumped in without even being asked, and supplied a great night of fun and enjoyment, in Saundra's place.(the mark of a keeper, for sure)

Happy, the SBG was lucky the day you arrived on our doorstep, and we want to take this opportunity to thank you for all you've done....and will do for the SBG and it's members in the future!

You are now eligible to display this most prestigious plaque in your lookup and if you'll place a junk item in your trades, I'm sure you'll be receiving a nice visit from our esteemed President, Mr. Richie-Rich!!

Congratulations Happy__K / happy_alliteration !! The SBG's Member of the Month, Sept., 2008.
