I realize it's Holiday Season, and some are on Vacation, I've just noticed that many of the Long Term Band Vets are noticebly gone.

There have been MANY threads that seemed to have gone down a slippery slope of bashing individuals who apparently have had crossed paths in cyberworld before. Quite frankly I don't care the reason, I just miss the advise & knowlege that I got the first few weeks when I joined. I enjoy reading the threads regarding religion / politics / etc, knowing my opionions and feelings are just that, and any chance of "converting" others is not likely - but having a forum to learn others experiences you may not ever have the chance of learning about is quite entertaining/enlightening to me.

With that said, I sure hope vacation ends for some soon I think some valuble individuals are sorely miss - whether I've agreed / liked what they've said in every post. Hope I don't get slammed now for mentioning this, but I'm a big girl (no pun intended). Merry NYR all!

Anyhow, now it is 2008 and I can give my liver a well-needed rest until July da 4th - my birthday - rolls around.

I'll be partying it up with you, babe! We share the same birthday!

Yep, I sure did love receiving my Xmas card, too, Laurend. Thank you from Green, eh.

But I confess that I deal badly with Xmas. I become unglued emotionally every year even though I always swear that this will be the year when I will not. :think

I blame my Xmas phobia and everything else on my parents. :heh:

You're welome!

I know what you mean, Green. Sometimes I just want to give a giant "F YOU!" to everyone around me at Christmas.
