    Goodness, Blondie, time sure does fly. I've enjoyed reading this thread. I joined in March of 2001. Three great years improving my life!

    I love having you on the board, and I love being here. I saw that Lady Lee joined in 2001 also. And others. It's great to have this place.

    Hugs,

    Pat

    Blondie,

    Being that we go way back, before even than we can both apparently remember, it's been an honor to watch your performance these three years. You rock! You have nothing but my admiration for your insights and incisive comments. I count you among the very best and most astute posters on JWD, and as I'm sure is true of many, gravitate to your posts.

    Blondie, you have helped me immensely to understand the JW world, and kept me from making false assumptions about their behavior. Concerned Mama and I have fantasized of doing a North America road trip to meet the great ladies of the board. You are definititely one of the "pins" on our map, along with Lady Lee, Scully, and Mouthy.

    Oh, and you are doing a bang-up job keeping Irreverent hale and hearty. For him to recover so quickly speaks well of your love and determination.

    Alan, what are you doing up?

    First off, Happy Anniversary!!!

    Second, as the others have said, you are here with a wealth of knowledge about the teachings of the WBTS, and you are brilliant in your insights about the org. You are very much respected here! You are an intelligent, strong, compassionate lady. Thank you for being you!!!

    You may have trouble keeping track of all of us new ones (and with the amount of people joining the board every week, it looks like it is not going to get any easier...but that's a good problem to have) but we know who you are. It would be difficult, if not impossible to get along without you. Thanks for all of your hard work! Happy Anniversary!

    Blondie,

    I have told you before how valuable I believe your Watchtower reviews are. Imagine all the lurking JW's who come here to see what was really missed in their WT study. Who knows, maybe you encourage some to look at the study differently. Just heard yesterday from a good friend inside of a prominent former elder, probably on his way out, who's comments are "always on the edge". Maybe some of these guys read your reviews.

    Hope you can keep it up.

    PS, How is Irreverent doing?

    Poor Gumby,

    Just wanted to introduce myself to the board as this is my first time .I look forward to joining in and feel this is a good honest forum with not much b.s.Much food for thought here and good questions. Talk at ya all later.....
    And that was the last comment, you killed the thread. Not a singly 'welcome' or 'Hello'. Like getting the courage to approach a crowd of people you would like to get to know and after introducing yourself they all walk away without a word. Please let me WELCOME YOU TO THE BOARD. And sorry we neglected you so long ago. Jst2laws
