Much thanks to Gregory, Rachel, Emily, Andrea, Jess, Andrew, and Sarah (all from Pennsylvania, how ’bout that?) as well as Nimish, Kim, Dad, Matt, Manny, Amanda, and Amy. Those are the people who have signed the petition thus far, and I’m hoping more will do so soon. You should do the same! If you don’t feel [...]

After extensive conversations with Stef and Morgan, gentle nudging by Sarah and Amy, and insight from several others I’ve decided that I do have a bit of fight left in me, and that this isn’t a dead issue yet. So where do you go when the board won’t follow it’s own rules, refuses to act [...]

I picked up my certified letter today. Turns out I was wrong. They aren’t trying to kick me out AGAIN. Instead, they decided that regardless of the fact that I did everything they asked, that I had not “fully complied” with their requests. So they’ve placed me on a membership status that doesn’t exist. Woohoo. What [...]

Pete on April 18th, 2003

Well, I got a notice that Kiwanis has sent me another certified letter. I’m guessing it’s going to be a formal apology from the Board and Staff for the horrendous mistreatment and shear idiocy that they’ve subjected me to. Oh, wait. That’s what it SHOULD be. What it probably is is a letter saying that I’m [...]

People who don’t care about Circle K or Intellectual Property Law can just skip this post. Well, some new folks are now in charge of UnofficialCKI — Manny is one of them. So when the new Admins got an email from the assistant lawyer wannabe, otherwise known as Casey Keller (uh oh, I linked them without [...]

At five minutes ’til six this morning I crept out onto my front porch to find a car sitting in my driveway. I made my way out onto the porch, coffee cup in hand, ready to give my public statement. Two members of UA’s Circle K Club were in attendance… and brought donuts. Amanda and [...]

Pete on February 27th, 2003

The following email was sent to the CKI Business reflector today regarding the public statement that has been mandated by the CKI Board. Fellow Circle K Members: In a letter dated February 17 your International Board communicated that I am to issue a public statement containing: - intent behind the creation and maintenance of the website at [...]

I know many of you have been waiting patiently for the “last” chapter in the story with the 11 “leaders” of the CKI Board. While I doubt this is the last we hear of it, let me give you the scoop. The letter that I received from President Rupert was chock full of gross misinterpretations [...]

Pete on February 7th, 2003

I swear the posts about the damn website are going to reduce in frequency, I really do. Today, however, I was reminded (again) that the International Board isn’t all the same. I had been reminded of this previously, but I was having a hard time seeing it. If they’re all as unique as they claim, [...]

…actually, what am I talking about? yes I do. I guess somewhere in the deep recesses of my mind I knew this day would come. Who would guess that it’d only take 6 weeks? Who would’ve thought that three members could put together a site that caused enough of a fuss that 19 governors would petition [...]
