We need a picture of the girls...by that I mean, a picture of Showgirl,Carsh, NCN, and other regulars on the blog. Currently, it is only adorned with half naked men and in the interest of equality it should have women too. Now that Showgirl is a regular blogger, at least she should be on there, but I vote for the girls ;-)

As in "the girls"? ;)

Panini -- Yes. Good suggestion. It was good that No-ply showed up this morning at 9:00 a.m., otherwise it would have been one big sausage fest.

What we really need is some high-quality, interesting, beautiful photos of one or more of the Klode Women, as that is what makes the site look interesting, and what we do look potentially appealing to others.

How about we hold a photo contest, who can come up with some beautifully-composed photos that capture that je ne ce quoi of the Klode Women -- their strength, courage and beauty, their good humor and silliness, and the beauty of the activity in which they engage. Who's got a camera they don't mind getting wet, and the skills to come up with a good early morning or evening pic? If we do get some new good photos this summer, maybe we should establish a photos page that folks can click through to (we do have some interesting photos on the web, if one goes back a ways).

Kahuna, What a way to describe the photoshoot. I think Sports Illustrated might have just taken notice. I do agree with you that putting women of the Kru on the website would invite more women to join the group because they won't think that it is a never ending sausagefest (as they may wont to now), which in turn will actually help all the men show up. It's a win-win.
Truly sorry wasn't able to make it this morning to represent the gender. I had a board meeting that couldn't be postponed. Hope you spoke well for all of us (which I have no doubt you did!)
