I think that it was nice of them to at least make an effort but I understand it must be very hard to deal with. My fiancee (freelife) has tried many times to explain the whole shunning and "worldy" thing to me but I just don't get it. I have a feeling when we get married in May none of his family will be there nor will they even send so much as a card. It's hard for me to understand how people can break ties so close to home. I guess all the brainwashing and repeated shunning of people who venture into the world just convinces them that they will somehow be contaminated. I wish you the best!! And congratulations!!

a: most of the time you simply get an onion with long ears, but every once in a while, you luck out and get a piece of ass that brings tears to your eyes.

Very sorry to hear that. You may want to check with your local library. Some of them have internet that provides an hour a day a month for free. Also try Netzero or Juno. Hopefully the news in Feb. will be better than expected though.
