Checking this site is one of my favorite parts of my day. I think it has been almost 4 years for me here. Terry you are catching me in posts. I need some new machines to talk about.

Now, as time rolls along some more, hopefully, we'll be able to put more faces together with the names by meeting each other at various events, trips and travels...

I think Dave is coming into the Orlando area next month so I would like to meet with him since this trip would be a rare occasion he'll be in the area! Dave, keep us posted on this trip: Dates and Times, etc...

My current user name was registered on Valentines Day of last year (how appropriate - my true love).
I registered long before that under another name (slackdaddy), but I was purged by Jim in his housekeeping.
I did not frequent the site as much back then, but I now visit several times a day.
Much thanks go out to Jim for keeping the site up and running and many more thanks to everyone else who visit and keep the conversation going!!! '<img'>
