    I would also like to Welcome our new members here. However. A quick review of the Welcome's here over the last several weeks....speaking only for myself. Seem to have been lost on NOW questionable, sincere members.

    So. I will withhold a genuine welcome. To be expressed later as familiarity with new members is established.

    Reminds me of that old saying: "Fool me once...."
    I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
    So, this is for them.
    GOD BLESS AMERICA - IN GOD WE TRUST !

    Thank you everyone. Just after I signed up for the forum. I was informed that my Dad has a form of leukemia that is very aggressive and he may only have 3 months to live He has agreed to be part of a clinical study. I am so afraid of losing him. He is the greatest man I have ever known. And a great American.

    I immediately drove to Alabama to see him. Wow, what a drive.....One of his wishes was for all of his children to be with him at the same time. There are 6 of us.

    He has carved himself out one beautiful piece of America. I am soo proud of him.

    I know that feeling all to well, I lost my Mom a few years ago and lost my oldest son when he was just 2 days old, it takes time but you will learn to live with it. people say it gets easier with time, I don't believe that I believe we learn how to deal with it. My oldest son would of been 27 this year and on the 19th of this month it hurt, we just learn to live with it.

    I wish you the best with this, and remember don't worry about it now, enjoy the time you have left, make what ever time y'all have great time !!

    Your not alone here. Tyr's Mom is in pretty bad shape and Sassy recently lost her sister. Jeff and Jim lost their Mom not long ago so this is a great place for moral support.
    When I die I'm sure to go to heaven, cause I spent my time in hell.

    You get more with a kind word and a two by four, than you do with just a kind word.

    Greetings and Salutations....

    Just stepping in real quick-like to say "Hey" before going back to Lurker Mode.

    I will likely start participating at some point but want to get a better feel for the joint -- specifically its members and its rhythms and tones of discussions/debates, especially when things escalate (as they inevitably do when it comes to politics) before jumping into the fray.

    Gotta say, though, that I do like what I've seen so far .

    Welcome aboard! Feel free to pop into the lounge area until you get more comfy, then jump into the fray.

    Sorry to hear of that.

    I lost my Dad to cancer 2 days before the 9/11 attacks, and just lost my little brother a few days ago.

    All I can say is that it sucks and there's no easy way to deal with it. But knowing it's coming is better than learning you just lost him unexpectedly and you didn't get to say your goodbyes and prepare.

    One thing that Dad did that I don't think he realized was so important to me now is his journal. He wrote in it, giving advice and remembering different events... it was for himself at the time but now it's priceless - kind of a link to him and his thoughts beyond the grave. It helped me a lot as I was coping after he was gone and I couldn't talk to him anymore.

    So no dedicated "Introduction" forum, just a single, thread that everyone has to pass around? Talk about sloppy seconds, thirds, etc. Fucking cheapskates.

    Anyway, Hi - My name is... umm, Boris. I'm a Sagittarius, I like fishing, hiking, ATV riding, drinking beer (on the beach preferably), blowjobs (getting, not giving... ahem..) and I'm a closet Abba fan.

    I'm a fiscal conservative, social moderate although I test liberal on those political chart thingys.

    So welcome me!
    Hold my beer for a sec...
