Remember the days When we were thrivin? Chittin and Chattin And random jivin? Ol' John was long And sally was nervous, Toe was a Buzz And the Lady was Virgin(ous) Ruth was a charmin Her suthern way Cinamn brought Her buns out to play Lil Bibi whipped Us all into shape And Victory was ours Make no mistake Terry was Fancy The dragon lady too Hell I even miss Davidsu Dixie was passing In shadows out there And Luvit was all Tangled up in her hair And lurking along There came Carolina And IT and Fantasia No friends there are finer Old Hawke would drive by With HugsZzzz made of Leather And put on his loincloth For Jane and the others Does anybody remember thrive? The friendships we forged With a modem and hard drive |

I do not... repeat NOT... miss Davidsu! LOL But I do remember... and miss... those days when lunches started before breakfast and my smile never slipped all day. *S* Thrive gave me my best friend and other friends I think I'll be loving for a lifetime... however awful the wars that ended the good times, I'll forever be grateful for that. Thanks for the memories, feathered one. *S* |

Well, I wasn't ever at the "other place"...(guess that's where you mean?)....but it sure sounds like it was a lot of fun. What happened to it???? But, I can't imagine it being any better than this place of Ron's. Funny how so many friendships can be made by people so far apart, isn't it? It is possible though, thank God...

Auntie -- maybe what I meant was that I missed kickin Davey's... um... posts.... all over the board... heh...glad ya gotta grin Gary'sgirl -- Thrive was purchased by Oprah and turned into Oxygen at which point it was totally ruined because she caved into pressure from Jerry Falwell who claimed that children were discussing sex there. WhiteRose -- sorry I didn't get em all in -- there was Strawberryblond, Laurenar, Wryter, Jef the French, King of Cups, Kristy, Kristysue, TheaterGoddess -- hey -- I don't have a roster -- lol -- maybe you could write a poem about your memories? I was mainly focusing on the core Random Chit Chatter board squatters... Toe -- hail hail the gang's half here -- sorta -- why don't you see if you can tear LongJohn away from Sallysheep long enuff to make a cameo appearance? Dixie Dixie -- I wouldifIcould yanno? Big Leather HuggsZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz beaniebaby -- you're the only woman I know who changes names more often than her hair... rofl... glad you could stop by for a chuckle or two And to everyone here who wasn't there -- Thrive was only better because it was 'home' to a very special family -- but it's gone now..and there's no place like home.

Until this brain dissolves into mush I know that I will grin and blush At memories of our thrivin' times. The lunches, chatter, and fine rhymes Gave me many a treasured friend - It's such a shame it had to end. But just when memories make me want to weep I think of Molly Moose and Sally Sheep. *G* |
