Hey, AZBob,

I have a friend who teaches at Nichols State University. And I met him via a message board. Not this one, but one that used to meet in New Orleans every year. The internet can indeed be a wonderful place, and a place to forge life long friendships.

I have friends all over the states, some of whom I have actually met. Joined Marine Moms Online several years ago, and was able to find a great group of Moms when my son shipped to the Persian Gulf in Jan. 2003. We kept each other informed the whole time, and my son was shocked how much we knew about his deployment.

AMEN!!! And Spurs.....shhhhhhhh! LOL

HRUMPH!!!!! :P

seriously, i met my two best friends on this board, as well as some very good friends and numerous acquaintances whom we are extremely fond of.

i tend to see them more often (and certainly TALK to them MUCH more often) than my "friends" up here.

the stories are confidential

spill it janie, i can't wait for the book!

Gay! you and Mr. York are in my book!
hope all is well!

doing well here, how bout you? i get to babysit my brand new grandson tonight for a couple hours. grandkids are so much nicer. you can fill them up with sugar products & send them home to their parents. he is way too little for that now. he is at that precious age where they don't talk back yet or wreck cars.

good here too. enjoy that age - it can't possibly last more than a couple of weeks!

gay, i'm saving them up for a face-to-face story trade with ya!

Ah grandchildren.....they are truly your reward for not killing your children when they were teenagers!
