Yeah, this forum is great. I would guess that it was prolly Peter Staley, geez I hope that is his last name..lol..The man who created this site. It was prolly his idea or some great woman who put the bug in his ear. Just to let you know there is an Intro thread here whenever you feel like sharing...No pressure, whenever you are ready.

Welcome Thick.

I'm inclined to write something sappy about all of us going through thick and thin on this e-journal --- but, I'm not going to write something sappy, it's Monday, I'll save sappy for Thursday.
