I would like to start by welcoming all the new members and staff. I hope you enjoy yourself hre as much as we do. I'd also lik to thank all the staff for keeping the calender full and making many members happy who come to play in the only 24/7 league, and that I can say we are the ONLY 24/7 euchre league in Yahoo.

Please remember this is a place to come and have fun, play cards, and enjoy the company of our friends. We know that everyone cannot like everyone else, but we can at least be civil. Leave the drama for your mama and check the drama at the door...come in and play cards and have a Ton A Fun.

As of now there will be NO more DRAMA that has been happening while I have been away. PLease follow the league rules posted on our main page, if you have any questions about them you can contact any admin. Be prepared to be boxed or banned because we come here to enjoy others and play cards.

I have had many messages from members asking if I was stepping down. Well you are going to hear it from me right now. I am NOT stepping down at all. I am trying something new with the admin team to take a lot off of me, and have them help with more takes for the league, and do it all fairly. I am not going anywhere...I am staying here forever.

September is here, all the children are going back to school...Yahoo!...If you have free time in the day and would like to host a couple tourneys a week we have great trainers that can train you and help you out a lot. So if you are up to it and can take one hour out of your day to help Ton A Fun as a TD, that'd be awesome.

Thank You to everyone for keeping this league the best on the net, and I'll see you at the tables.

Caroline

-Head Admin Ton A Fun

Bratty would like everyone to know that the second Friday of each month there will be a members meeting at 7pm. Come in voice your opinions and concerns and lets find ways to improve the league!

- Remember we are a big league with a lot of players joining each tourney, so please try and play as fast as you can to ensure people who want in the next tourney have the opprotunity to.

- Please if anyone comes into our lobby trying to start drama with members, ignore the whole situation. Lately the amount of members getting involved with drama in the lobby has been getting out of hand. So rather than feed into it, just ignore the person and the whole situation, if not actions will have to be taken on all who respond.

- The lobby chat in the evening goes very fast, and it makes it difficult when TDs are trying to post pairs for a large tourney. If you could please hold the lobby chat while pairs are being posted, it would be appriciated not only by your fellow members, but the TD also.

- As we all know this year marks the eighth anniversary of September 11th. Please where ever you are on that day, to take a few moments of silence to remember everyone who had lost there lives on that day.

This is a new sections to this months newsletter. Here you will find a helpful hint to make your league life a bit easier. This month we focuse on the Information Center on the league main page.

~Corn Balls~ submitted by: Natasa_007_247 ~

Indredients:

- 8oz Sour Cream

- 1/2 cup of melted/softened butter

- 1 (8.5oz) package of corn bread mix

- 1 (15oz) can of creamed corn

- 1 (15oz) can of whole kernel corn

- 1 package of grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (175 C).

- In a bowl (I chose a glass, microwaveable bowl so I can melt the butter in it) mix: butter, sour cream, corn (both cans), and corn bread mix.

- Pour into a 1 quart casserole dish (8x8 pan works great) and bake for about 50 - 60 minutes (adjust for your oven and elevation).

- You will know the corn casserole is done when you stick a toothpick in the center and it comes out clean. For corn balls its ok to cook the casserole a little longer to make it dryer (it's easier to rill it into balls).

- Let the casserole cool down and then mix it up with a spoon.

- Take a spponful of casserole and shape it into a ball. Roll the ball or coat it with Parmesan cheese. Repeat this process until the entire casserole is done (size of balls is at your sicretion).

- Place the balls onto a non-stick baking sheet and broil on high for 5-10 minutes, until you see a crust forming on top.

- Take the balls out of the oven and let them cool a little before serving.
