A few days ago, Chris brought up the idea about starting a Cloudkicker's group on Facebook. I just posted the proposition on my personal Facebook profile and I'll share that with you in its entirety. Feel free to comment here, and there too if you have a Facebook profile, whether we should go ahead with the idea or not. Thanks!
Now...as for what I said on my Facebook profile:
Can we start a Cloudkicker's group here on Facebook?
Many people in real-life, and here on Facebook know me as Tom Vollmar; but in the online fandom of Disney's cartoon series TaleSpin, I'm known as Tom Cloudkicker. I have a proboard group called "Cloudkicker's". It's all about a T.S. character known as Kit Cloudkicker, the fans in the group love him especially and I share that affection for the character with them. We're a diverse, family-friendly little group of about 80 people, ranging in age from Under-18 to Fiftysomething.
I'm aware that there are some people who worked on the series twenty years ago here and what I want to say first to them is: Thank You. What I'd also like to ask them, and you, is: If I did start a Cloudkicker's Facebook group here, would you approve of it? Would you be interested in joining it? We respect the fact that the characters and the cartoon series are genuine Disney. The group exists as a celebration of the TaleSpin series and characters; and to extend appreciation to the Walt Disney organization for the fine job they've done in providing entertainment that also uplifts the people. They demonstrate the viability of the animation medium that while a cartoon can make you laugh, they can also make you feel a wide spectrum of other emotions.
If you're currenty, or formerly, affiliated with the Disney company, or simply love Disney; this group is basically here for you. A link for Cloudkicker's Message Board appears below. Please consider yourself invited and warmly welcomed. And of course if you think we should have a facebook page for Cloudkicker's, please feel free to share your comments in this thread. Thanks!
