In the words of Dorothy Parker....

I like to have a martini
I like to have two at the most
After three I'm under the table
After four I'm under my host

;-)

Well I'm sure glad you enjoy it here and wish you could come to Tucson. I'll have to look up you gents someday when I come to visit Terry and Bobby.

 

[zipdang]

Aw, shucks!

Thanks to you too, Shane, for being such a great guy!

This is Why

Shane,
You are who I wish I could be. Gentle and nice always, without the frustration or anger that I sometimes have to disarm before I begin to respond. It is obvious you are tender and that is the most desirable trait any man can have. I appreciate and I am humbled by your words. When a thread begins with a rant and I'm feeling like Dorothy and Toto on a Kansas afternoon wondering why I spend time here, it is the loving and accepting tenor of your words and the sweetness of your soul that assure me there is much in this group that is good and valuable.
I am at the age I can weep with out a martini and you've done a splendid job of getting me unhinged.

Love changes people... the ones who give it and the one who receives it.

I love you,
Kelly

Hi Shane. Yes, it is always nice to talk to another "expatriate" New Yorker. Your presence will be missed here in Tucson. It would have been nice to meet you.
I hope that our Tucson wash in will become an annual event and perhaps next year you will be able to come.

And if you all think Shana Mae is a doll, you should meet his husband, Barbara Jean!! Two peas in a pod, except that Barbara Jean doesn't understand what the big thrill is in watching clothes go around in a washing machine....but we'll convert him too, it just takes some time.

It's sure been a wild ride over the last 13 years, hasn't it princess?

 

[coldspot66]

Hey Shane,

Such sweet sentiments...............Anyone who remembers "Final Touch with Extra Bluing" and is the voice of love and reasoning has a place in my heart!!!! When I see Final Touch, I think of you!

We are all "connected" in so many ways, yet have never met in person!!!

P.S. Eight'o Clock coffee in the morning makes me sappy!!!!
LOL
