I love to joke and hope I made some laugh on here. I try to keep it clean and in good fun. Today is good and I hope you all know how much I appreciate the friendship you have gave me.
I try to get on when I can, to post, but with my work it's hard to find time for a thought to write and I get a chance at break time at work and get on my I phone and read whats all going on at 1 or 3 am in the morning. Such a life of working the 11 to 7 am shift. : )
Something really showed me about the people on here awhiles back, well, back in Jan. when my best friend died. I shouldnt have wrote that in aways, but I was so down and lost and I'm a person that bottles things up so much inside I finally have to write, say something. I thank you all for not slamming me for writing that. I do miss him and he would have been 51 tomorrow..I miss him each day, and when you have someone you known by your side for the past 43 years as growing up as children tru grade school. Folks you cant get closer than that..
I enjoy seeing what people make in the gallery. There is no more greater joy than to make something with your hands and give to others to enjoy, and thats something about working with wood. I mill my own wood and from a tree that is dieing and thats something that I say is, that tree died, but lives tru generations on down by someone making it into something that lives on,really lives on longer than we ever will on this earth.
Peace and love to all...

Stipes it is a remarkable site. Some times I feel I have family all over the world. I enjoy getting on and just reading what everyone else is saying. I feel like we are all connected somehow. ;) ;) ;)

Believe it or not but those of us that have been on here the longest truly welcome the newcomers.
We all remember the time we were the new kid on the block and do everything we can to make everyone feel welcome and not a single person on this forum, to my knowledge, knows everything there is to know about scrolling! We are all learning every day and try to pass on our experiences and knowledge to help others along the way.
Steve started us down the road by asking us to 'play nice' and I think we have done a pretty good job of following his rules.
Congrats on the "Full Member" status and keep comin' back!

Hi Stipes, that's what friends are for. Talking to each other, whether it's around the corner or like me, across the POND. I'm sure I'm right when I say that we are all good listeners here on the forum. Best wishes.
Rob Roy.

Congratulations Stripes. We are family here, probably more so than some of our real family. I have family in the UK that I have not seen in 38years and I only email once or twice a month, yet I am on here daily. If I can put a smile on someones face or listen awhile then I think I've had a good day. We like what you have to say so keep on saying it.
