Post Number 5000: A look back at 1 through 4999.......

Though I can't say it's been all smooth-sailing, somehow I've managed to make it to the 5K mark.

So first off, Many thanks to all of you who gave me advice (some encouraging, some brutally frank) in the past. These past few years have been something of a wild ride and I can't say thanks enough for having a place to post my thoughts and problems, and hear many diverse opinions about them. A few of you (you know who you are) really went above and beyond, and I couldn't possibly love and cherish you any more!

Next, to those I have had conflicting opinions with- No harm, no foul. We all have our differences and opinions, and that's what makes life interesting. I certainly hold no grudges, and believe with all my heart that despite the little differences, we all can learn something from each other.

A very special thanks to the GLBT contingent. Having come out fairly late in life, I've learned much from the online discourse. We've all had different experiences that have shaped who we have become, but we're still "family" and I'm proud to be amongst you!

Thanks for all of the laugh out loud moments in the Lounge! Whether it be thinly-veiled sex threads, call-outs to fantastic GD mayhem ( :popcorn: ), lame copycat threads, Chuggo, threads that never die, Olive Garden Breastfeeding- hell, even those damn NARWHALS- it's entertainment that you just can't find ANYWHERE else.

Thanks to all of the Admins and current/past mods. It's a thankless job, and you sure as hell can't please everyone.

All the best to each and every one of you....
