You know, it's almost surprising that no one else thought of that, because it's so true . . . and yet, not surprising, because nobody thinks quite the way you do, Norma! I know I'm grateful to the Internet every day . . .
I enjoy logging into Bloglines and seeing what the collection of friends on that list have posted for the day. Sometimes it's about knitting, sometimes its about other stuff.
I love it! The post and the internet. When we first got it, my kids were at those very vulnerable ages and I'd heard the horror stories of what they can get into with the internet. So of course I was harping on internet safety don't do this stay away from that what do you mean you disabled netnanny???? And now I do almost everything I warned them against: give out my home info, meet strangers, and even invite them to my house. It's so wonderful!
Oh, thank the gods you are still there! I've missed you.

That's a very sweet sentiment, Norma. And I totally agree. Life has become much more brilliant since finding you all out here on the web.

Great I, Norma! It is a privilege to know you and all the other wonderful ethereal folks.
(Well, you're probably quite solid really, but you're ethereal to me, so far.)
