I understand, Teppy. I am not functioning at all here. I should do something, and yet.

I have accomplished a thing! We have a new user, who probably won't even lurk or post, but I told him about our deal so Brendon is now a registered user. I'll have to ask him to post once so I can see his number! He chose the name BigOwl, so I'll share the reason. When he was coaching t-ball the little kids had a hard time saying his name as Coach Al, and it came out Owl and they called him big owl. It stuck. Anyway, he knows if I can't post because I ran away to a tropical island or my fingers aren't working he is to let you know. Many of you know him so not a stranger. Also, a way to test and see if the registration works now!

Is it weird to be glad that it sounds like a heart attack and not COVID? I don't know, I couldn't really sleep, so the world is strange right now.

I'm stunned to hear the news about DX. It's such a shock, especially for it to take so long to find out.

Lots of people here having major troubles right now. I'm so sorry for all of you. This has been a terrible year for so many.

Hello, everyone. Even though I was brought back to the board by news of amyth and then the first thing I see is news of DX, it is damn good to see you all again.

Hello, Anne!

Welcome, BigOwl! We’ve heard many good things about you

If something happens to me, I expect the Buffista spirit people in my complex would get the word to smonster quickly. If/when I move back to MI, I’ll make further arrangements.

Well closing the web and going to bed after posting didn’t make things go away.

It's lovely to see you, Anne.

Delightful.

Welcome, BigOwl. That's such a cute naming story.

Still stunned, yes. I'll line someone up for myself. More's the pity, I'm not that connected to people here in the physical world, though certainly through FaceBook. My DP has at least one b.orger friended, and I think my sister has another, maybe, but neither of them knows the exact connection or that notifying you guys would be a thing.

ETA: DP knows and hears about the board; he just doesn't know where to go, etc.

The news makes me heartsore.

Hello my dear Buffistas. I‘m still around most days, lurking because our schedules don‘t really align. So I know the news even when I would rather not.

What a year, my goodness.

I am not sure if my memory is correct, but I feel like Ed was close to real old school Buffistas like Betsy and Michelle Tepper and Theresa W. Also pretty close to Holli. Also has anyone reached out to Tom Krueger about either sad news. I can’t seem to get back to the list Cindy created because of course I didn’t bookmark it.

My Maria has been reminded of the address. I am sure she would think of it because I talk about you all so much, but I am not sure she could find you. Although her brother is IT support at my work and could probably get my browsing history or break into my phone.
