  ok before we get off on the wrong foot this is not a flame war.

  i read a comment by belbab on hillary's post this morning...he remarked that he had asked a question after the 09/11 attack, that no one answered.

  well, i didn't even remember reading it, so i did a simple search.

  CONGRATULATIONS FINN!!

  I'm not a golfer...but I know how rare it is to make a hole in one.

  And to think when I opened this thread...I was expecting another sex thread.

  well, we just got back from spending yesterday evening and most of today with isp, mrs. isp, and the two little isps.

  the number of folks from this board that i've met is steadily growing, and i've yet to suffer many disappointments.

  isp and family were very kind and generous people, with absolutely adorable children!

  Hi back to Salud and Wife!

  So sorry he's sick...we were kind of hoping you two could make it over too. Next time, right?

  SixofNine Spiderman was not there, contrary to rumors otherwise.

  Been here a year...(ramblings)

  yep,one year ago tonight i first posted here.i had lurked for a few weeks,never intending to post,but a particular thread hit so close to home for me,that i felt like i had to voice my opinion.of course,i was promptly slammed as being a troll,but i was stubborn enough to hang around.here i am still hanging,a whole year later.

  i've maybe learned more in this past year than in the ten before it all put together.i've learned a whole lot about myself-about who i am,and why.i've learned about the organization that shaped my life and my family.originally i was shocked by alot of what i read here,and wasn't sure whether or not to believe it all.but looking back,knowing what i do now explains an awful lot of things.

  i've learned lot's about people,too.like many who were raised jw,i led a very sheltered childhood(even more so living in the country,going to a small school).i'm still not sure if this is a real cross section of life,but i think it's pretty close.i'm happy to say that i've made lot's of friends here,some very good ones.though i've had my share of disagreements,i don't consider anyone here an enemy.

  Hey bratty little sister...why was there no mention that Doug and I were there also? Hmmmm?

  Seriously, we didn't get to stay today and spend time with them, but we all had dinner together last night and sat out by the pool afterwards to watch the kids swim and let us chat on forever.

  ISP and Mrs. ISP are beautiful people...they both looked much younger than they said they were...is there something about the British climate that is good for your skin or something? Let me in on the secret please!

  I love these opportunities to meet others. So much that we have in common...yet such varied backgrounds. Anyone else coming to Florida, let us know...we will put forth extra effort to come and meet you.

  goodbye to "me" it's been a long road, .

  you've been unlucky in life, love and religion, .

  it's now time for you to go.. "me" you held on too long to what should have been abandoned long ago,.

  Well apparently I don't have as much fun as the rest of you. I got:

  You're not so much loony as carefully spontaneous. Occasionally crazy, but usually sane, you're not very nutty at all.

  Carefully spontaneous? Hahaha...yeah, I guess that's me.

  yesterday, my ex husband and i took our 9 year old daughter to camp for the first time.

  delaney was bouncing off the walls with excitement, mom and dad were secretly dreading the departure while smiling and acting happy for her sake (we're good at that .

  once we checked her in, we had to hike thru the woods to her bunk and i am talking woods here!

  Beautifully stated Dana

  When you get your degree, maybe you should write that book on how to have a happy divorce. It's amazing what you and the kids Dad have been able to accomplish simply by putting the kids best interests ahead of your own. You both should be proud of that.

  I hope my Laney girl has a wonderful time. If we all go see ISP and his family this weekend, she can regale all of us with stories of camp. I can't wait.
