One of our GUESTS was looking at the 12/24/2004 postings - so many people posting who no longer frequent these here parts for various and sundried reasons, most of which are/were extremely silly, at least in my opinion. Tempers sometimes flare in the best of families, offense is sometimes taken in the best of families but you know what, you get over it and everything rights itself if you don't run away. Francois, Tomovoz, Dan-in-Toronto, Jay, Lulu, MattH - so many wonderful folks. And Ann, S. Woody White and der Brucer, all of whom still stop by occasionally, but way too rarely.
Wouldn't it be nice if on this Christmas of 2010 everyone came back and started anew? That is my Christmas wish.
