| As some of you may know I've been going through what our Chinese brethren might describe as "interesting times" & will have to relocate in the next week or so to DISTANT Texas. WELL...There's a BLIZZARD whirling around outside. SO I decided I needed to walk down to the Post Office...there IS the possibilty I may have been a Lemming in a former life or simply extremely stupid. AND LO, awaiting me was a Priority Envelope from our own Da Bank...inside was a cashiers check from my DEAR FRIENDS here at the Death Squads Forum & TBMF. I cried.
I will never fathom what I did to deserve the friendship such a FINE group of people...all I can say is thank you; you are THE BEST! | |

| Sometimes, one can feel as insignificant as an ant in this big big world. So small, that while our problems are as big as a grain of sand (especially considering the big world-wide scope) they seem as big as a mountain... so impossible to move. The cool thing about ants is that even without asking for help, other miserable and insignificant ants instinctively recognize the problem, and they all come to pitch in whatever little they can. If two are not enough, more come... and if four are not enough, then eight... sixteen... even hundreds. And so it is that the minuscule ant can indeed move a mountain! We all have our problems and yet we all would like to resolve everyone's issues too. Unfortunately we can not. On the other hand, we are a community. You are always there for us, specially on TBMF, giving good advise and critique for our projects, as well as encouraging us to continue to enjoy the hobby. You have never asked for anything, so we read it as it was. Not charity, but friends letting a friend know you are not alone! We all put the little we could... and guess what? We did indeed gave that mountain a good shove! | |
