Thinker,
I would like to say, at this point in time(I have been meaning to say it for a long time), what an absolute, classic, priceless asset you are to this Board.
Not a day goes by without you posting your words of wisdom, helpful hints, informative links, etc.
Not to mention the personal assistance, reassurances and advice to individual members.
You are in my eyes, definitely an Angel...or at the very least have the ear of one sitting on your shoulder....no, it's not really a parrot at all!
You have the biggest wings and you're flying high.
Please keep up the good work, for if ever we were to lose you, the Board would be an empty place with a large part of it's "good energy" beacon missing. A light for all to see. It would be like having the lighthouse turned off and the ships floundering on the rocks.
I move to redefine you...
"Blue Star Angel of Cosmid Quadrant Three"....after all...
who needs to be a "bottle washer"? Te he.
Anyone care to "second" that?
Three cheers for Thinker!

This is a very loud (can't you hear it?!) big, huge, giant second to Aussie's tribute to you, Thinker. Don't know why I my pm's aren't going through to you, but my thanks to you personally was mailed at the same time of Aussie's post. Great minds...
Your astute observations, your quick wit, your ability to move on inspite of great obstacles are impressive and definitely a solid rock while we flounder for a sure footing.
Thank you! Thanks for being you on this board. You bring hope, encouragement and wisdom. I know I can face what tomorrow brings because you're doing it...and in style.

joyfullee - how interesting your point about (can't you hear it?)
I can sure hear something, my ears are a buzzing, and me little old "steath pilot" is up in his plane again.
Tony just tells me I am paranoid and they are remapping the Melbourne CBD and I sad "What!! It wouldn't take them 4 months to remap the eastern suburbs of Melbourne or our street, or whatever the hell they are doing? I don't think so"!!
I just tell myself I have Alzheimer's Disease, can be a good coping mechanism at times, its just that your friends don't stick around, yeah they all think I am crazy.
Criminal it really is, well someone is criminal coz I sure am not.

Thinker, I don't know where you are or what you could possibly be doing, but I know you will not let a "stumbling block" get in your way. No matter what, WE NEED YOU and you can't let us down. If we or I or anyone has failed you I know it could not have been intentional. We all need each other terribly. I hope you are just having computer problems again. And how do you expect me to figure out how to talk on this thing without your help. And you were going to tell me how to do housecleaning. I am tired of vacummming every day and never getting anywhere. And I am tired of my mother's constant complaining about my fanatical cleaning. And my little girl is becoming as obsessed as I am. Can you imagine the damage I have done to her. She tells her friends to not sit on the floor because it's dirty. I remember making mud pies when I was her age. Should I go on?Because I can. Do you know how many gallons of bleach I go through and how tired I am of rags for washcloths. I hope I am not the only one.
But seriously Thinker YOU have been one of my ANGELS. I have to tell you about all of them someday. It will be a book in itself. I am getting ready to post 2 of my autobiography short stories which will be part of THE book . Please respond. Your team 0happyday

Blue stars
Shining at me
Nuthin' but blue stars

Never saw a star
Shining so bright
As our own Angel,
Thinker, tonight.
XXXOOO

As the baby sparrow leaves its nest, it completes one phase and prepares for the next.
Every one of us is here to spread our wings and learn to fly, and I have had my time.
You selflessly taught me how to soar and I now leave the nest to make room for others to have the same opportunity as the cycle continues.
It is now your turn. Everything is as it should be.
Every Sunday I will be there, and in the background, helping with whatever I can.
I am not gone, just "un-membered," and Sh0 can always find me if you'd like to get in touch.
Bless you all. You are the very, very best!!

Dear Thinker.....You can't leave the Board now..... part of you is in "the mix".
What would we do without you?
Would many of us who interchange with you, want to remain here without you? I don't think so. A vital essence would be missing. It is unThinkable.
I can feel the fabric of the whole structure fracturing already.
Won't you change you mind? Please?

My emotions are as mixed as I see are the rest of yours......
I miss the "Thinker" already and cannot express how much I appreciate the tireless hours she has devoted to this Board (the techie things) AND the warm, loving heartful sharing with each of us on the Board and individually.
It is understandable that none of us can spend the better part of our waking hours here......and that is what Thinker was doing - Total commitment.......
Best I understand, she could see others coming in and joining in the conversation.....and it was a good time for her to make a decision to go on to do those things she had begun and left unfinished when she dedicated the better part of her mind-time and heart here.
For those of you who are new, our blessings and a big welcome - please share with us - that's what we're here for......
And for the oldtimers, it's time to re-commit to being here for those who are depending on us to be there for them....AND re-connect at a deeper level for our own growth and healing.
My love and appreciation are overwhelming - to all of you, I say Thank You! for being here for each other.
And to Thinker? Whatcha wanna bet she's lurking?
Blessings to all.........Shoshanna PS - We got 1/2 of the funding coming in this week to retrieve our Lab Reports - still need the other half.... So, let's all send up a big Prayer that Creator touch those on the shoulder in a position to be helpful.....and make the other $10,000 available to get ALL the reports so we can know the rest of the story.

OK I take a couple of days away from the board on personal issues and come back to hear this.....
Dearest Thinker.....
I remember those first days of posting on this board and the warmest feeling that comsumed me from the words of many......and your deepest concern and endless research
Here's to Crow....for that story remains in my heart forever....
Warmest Wishes SickandTired
