Thank you all

I appreciate so much your reactions and responses to my snarly post last night.....In true FT spirit you have all been caring and so very nice.

I do hope you all will continue to welcome and acknowledge newbie posts to this forum along with some of us who don't post frequently.

You all have been simply wonderful today.....Thank you so much.

Abby, a very special thanks to you for PMing me.....you really made a difference.

Warm regards,
dede

Dede, I'm sure there are nicer, friendlier and classier FTer's than you but I've yet to meet them.

You're always welcome to post here and I think we actually do a good job of welcoming newbies to this thread, Anybody new gets several welcome posts and sometimes they respond and become a regular.

And sometimes we seem to scare them away.

But the back and forth banter does get a bit daunting sometimes and it's hard to break through the noise with a signal. I think we all need to keep that in mind so that this thread welcomes new posters rather than intimidates.

Just my two pesos worth as usual.

To avoid taking another thread off-topic, while letting Mikey know how fortunate he is, I thought I would post this here.

Northeast Philly is even better than North Philly. It puts her right on the border with Bucks County, which is the only place in the United States worth living in.

Well of course she lives in Bucks County.... I used to live in Chester County, pretty nice place if you have to live in the cold north.

This group is the "IN" crowd?

There are two

She actually lives in Bucks County, not just near it?

I think I am already in love with her!

I meant dede in the hot red leather, by the way, and not Cholula but then again, maybe Cholula is flashing some hot red leather clothing as well!

Choose one:

(1) Welcome to our world.

(2) Welcome to Middle America.

(3) Now you've really scared Dede away forever. You should have held back on the good stuff for a little while longer.

Hey! I know that hotel.

I used to date a woman who lived near it. She was a young nurse who had hopes of someday becoming a head nurse.

As I recall she was a gorgeous blonde-haired, blue-eyed, beauty whose only fault was having a horrible sister who liked torturing me.
