Just wanted to say "Happy Thanksgiving," to everyone here. This is a special place indeed, even with all the wackos and wierd happenings we still survive. <BR>
<BR>
Thanks Kirk for wonderful place to post love poetry and for putting up with our ranting and ravings. We love you for it and wish you and Mo a Great Turkey Day!<BR>
<BR>
Angie and TJ; We thank you both for serving this country, keeping us Free to say what we please (George Bush is a Moron..ha) without getting fired or banned (some cartoon on bush in England) We just want you safe as well and not in danger for the wrong reasons. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.<BR>
<BR>
Rennie; Hope you feel better and that we can get us all together soon. (that would be fun) Rhett; when you get here e-mail me and Rennie and we'll get a PARTY going.<BR>
<BR>
Everyone; Happy Turkey Day! Drive safe and don't eat too much. Love to you all.<BR>

BK~ thanks so much for the desire to get together for the holidays. I have (sadly) had to cancel earlier holiday plans since I didn't do so well with medical this time. However, I did get good medical results! I'll have to wait a bit to do much at this point. I AM looking forward to getting to meet ya. In the past, I lost my father on Thanksgiving and my infant son on Christmas, so I work hard at keeping these times happy instead of depressed. My father died from the same cancer I have been fighting for the last dozen years. Lost my son (long ago) after being slammed by a fella doing in excess of 70 MPH according to witnesses, so please drive carefully this holiday season. I am trying to read here as much as possible. Thanks for another contest, Gala. It is a real treat to see the energy sparked from a holiday challenge. What a wonderful group here that rises to these challenges ..... Rennie

Rennie Lorca:  I dont know you at all--but my heart wishes you the absolute very best holiday filled with good health and cheer.  Thank you for reminding me that life is precious, no matter what we are feeling--someone is always struggling harder.  It is an HONOR to read what you have wrote!  God Bless you forever!

You guys are too much!<BR>
<BR>
It was my pleasure...made me stretch my grey matter a bit.<BR>
And no Drew, it doesn't have to be happy. <BR>
<BR>
Dee, the reason we concentrate on a cold christmas is because if it were tropical, Santa would be in butt floss thong---NOT PRETTY!
