Justin,

You are the finest person. I just like you more and more. I'm so glad you came here to DAR. Besides, you make funny puns.

I think a lot of us here tend toward that reclusiveness and have to push ourselves out there. We seem to WATCH a lot. Not that we aren't capable of being very social; I think our presence here attests to some desire for a group of friends and good conversation. We just like it on our own terms.

One of the nicest things about my church is the way it cherishes its elders. It's a young yuppie church, growing rapidly with an attendance of about 1500 every Sunday. SIx years ago it was a little country church with just a couple of hundred members. The other day the pastor announced the anniversary of a young couple and I was thinking "that's kinda weird". BUt it was an elderly couple who had been married 65 years. The church gave them a standing ovation for about five minutes.
What staying power. What courage. Can you imagine 65 years together?
