Hi. I am assuming the MoM is not happening this year due to the pandemic? I really am looking forward to attending and meeting other like-minded people. Just wondering now that summer is almost here. Thanks for any reply.

At this point we are still tentatively planning on getting together. A lot will depend on how bad the virus is, and whether everything is shut down again. The airlines may have some planes up by then on normal routes. So for now, it is a go, but could change. In any case I expect I will be there, along with some masks, if needed.

FYI 1. I can't find that "front page".
FYI 2. I see that the River Heights Motel in Prescott is full up. Anyone have any suggestions for other places. I like cheap, but not disgusting!

Yea I saw that page. But there are no details on there about MOM. Just something about "Support the Eunuch Archive " and a list of recent posts on the left.

MOM 2020 - The Annual Gathering of the Clan
PENDING THE PANDEMIC ...
Read more link:
PENDING THE PANDEMIC, the dates are set; planning is underway. The Fifteenth Annual Gathering of the Clan will be from Thursday, July 30th through Sunday, August 2nd in the Greater Minneapolis/St Paul area. The main gathering will be on Saturday/Sunday with optional events on Thursday and Friday. All registered members of the Eunuch Archive are invited to attend. The annual Meeting of Members (MoM) centers on the Saturday and Sunday at the home of Talula, Gem and their just outside the Twin Cities. There will be a brief Archive business meeting (to which all are invited) on Saturday. The future of the Eunuch Archive, after over 20 years on-line, will be the main topic of discussion. Otherwise, the days are devoted to just enjoying each other's company. It's a place where you can discuss freely with others any topic that has come up here. You can put faces to the names you know. There is always plenty of food and drink for all. Since some members seem to always arrive early, Kristoff now holds a BBQ at the convent (in Minneapolis) on the Thursday night before the MoM. (This year it's on Thursday, July 30th at about 6:00.) Some sort of optional activity will be planned for Friday. We've visited strange museums, local caves, cheese factories, blueberry farms, and wineries. The Mall of America is within reasonable distance for anyone who might be interested. Here is a chance to put faces to all of the names you see here. It's a friendly group and we all seem to enjoy each other's company. That's why we get back together every year. If you are interested in finding out more, please send a to either Jesus or Kristoff. We need from you an email address that will accept attachments so that we can send JPEG copies of maps and other information about the event locations. If the Covid-19 plague lifts, we'll gather to celebrate!

See above. Paolo posted a copy of the front page. Once you sign in, the first page you are immediately brought to, is the front page. The article is the first one listed. It consists of the first two lines, and then says "Read More" You can't miss it.
The River Heights Motel is not taking reservations that far out (they are in the process of remodeling the place, room by room). Call in June and you should be able to get a room. If not, check in Hastings, MN, or Cottage Grove, MN. Both are on other side of the river.

Sorry for being such a PITA about this. Nope, not seeing it. Did you look at the screen grabs that I posted? I even logged out and back in. Then rebooted my computer. IT IS NOT THERE. There has got to be a reason. I'm a pretty computer savvy guy.
Is everyone else seeing the MOM posting as described? Am I the only one not seeing it?
ARG!
Thanks for the tip about the motel. I'll check back with them later.

You are there. Where you see the post that says "Support the Archive," look above it. You will see the first opening lines of the post you want. At that point, click on "read more," and you will see the whole post, as you see above.

OK, I must be blind or completely stupid.
There is nothing above "Support the Archive" other than the menu bar that says; "Home, What's New, Archives, Forum, Blogs, and Chat". Just like the picture I posted the link to. Can you see that picture? Do you see what you're talking about in my picture?
I'd still like to know if others can see it or not. People, please help me out. I know I'm old, my memory is fading, and I can't see quite as good as I used too, but this is crazy. Can you see it?

EXCELLENT! I am so excited. This is my 15 year eunuchversary and I cannot think of a better way to celebrate it than to FINALLY meet some fellow eunuchs and nullos for the first time in person. I am so excited. I will definitely plan to attend. My email is

The year before last I tried to get there but motorcycle problems en route kept me from arriving. Last year I finally made it and discovered some of the most genuinely wonderful folks around. It was such a great time getting to know other folks in the group and I was finally able to meet for the first time eunuchs besides myself. Until that point I had personal doubts that any actually existed on the planet regardless of the many things I've read. The hospitality was unmatched and I highly encourage anybody who is able to go meet the group. You'll never regret the experience. I have no intention of ever missing another MoM. See ya`ll there.

I stayed at the Four Points Sheraton near the airport and Mall of America when I visited a couple years ago. It was nice for a place to stay while I toured Minneapolis. Makes for a quick trip to the airport if your flight is early. It's a bit of a drive to eunuch central, but manageable.
