Hello, gang.
Special Kudos go out from me to Sci1977 and SB, to special Jews who have shown me what it takes to care about one's fellow man.
Also, if anybody wants's so see some REAL INSPIRATIONAL posts, pay a visit to Sci1977's thread on 'how he got here,' over in Break Free. His Dear John letter to his past should become required reading, like the Handbooks (which BTW i STILL haven't read, so it just goes to show you...). And his Cheshbon Hanefesh, his introspection, is done in such a POSITIVE light, I am remarkably inspired, and i think all of us here could learn that positive way of thinking from Sci.
Have to get back to work now. Lost some time over the last few days, the slowly melting pile of snow on my roof started leaking through the ceiling of our guest room, right over where my Mom-in-law is supposed to sleep this Shabbos. I've got 4 separate buckets in there right now. And until things thaw and dry out, I cant find the cause, or even seal anything. And another 12-18 inches is expected tonite!! i'm gonna have to bring my work computer home. And it's heavy.
Cheerio.....
