And my condolences on having put up with me for four years as of today.

Is there a patron saint of patience already?

Didn't you just dedicate this to him, Reb? Hee hee...congratulations on four years of wonderful poems, worthy discussions, and a whole plethora of people who miss you when you're not here!

Scared me there, Reb.

Thought maybe I had gotten married. Again.

And had forgotten about it. Again.

I'm relieved it was something ~~considerably~~ less traumatic. Four years? That's a long time when you think about it. A child moves from birth to the edges of public school. A young adult earns a bachelor's degree. Serenity actually finishes one of her stories. Anyone know what four years would be in Internet years? I mean, this whole WWW thing is less than ten years old, right. You've spent almost half of that right here.

Gee, maybe by common law, we ARE married?

Glad you stuck around any way.

Congrats on the 4 years of great posting, LR... here's to four more.

Does anyone really know what time it is?
Does anyone really care?

Many, many thanks to all -- it's been an insightful, entertaining, frustrating, rewarding, and challenging 4 years... without the company of you all there'd have been no point.

Ron, I can pretty much tell that we're NOT married because you've never spent all of my money or signed my name to credit card applications before...

But I think I've found my new signature phrase -- 'Less traumatic than marriage!'

Hey Reb

I'm late, as usual, but I still wanted to congratulate you on your 4 years and commend Ron on putting up with you.....even though ya'll aren't married. LOL (and you know that I'm kidding)

I really wanted to tell you, too, that I sure do miss you when you aren't here, Mr. Reb!!

Heart Hugs,

Ethel
