{{{E'}}}, Thank you for covering me!! I just got the computer hooked back up and should not be down again. Your stories were grrrreat, what an act to have to follow but I shall try my best. The new office is coming along and should be finished in about a week. Take care all and see you in the morning. Have about 900 e-mail to download and read, just know there are some stories in them, also have to catch up with several hundred posts. Boy! Down time stinks........ wb

Good Morning Everyone, What a difference a nights sleep can make. Got so blurry eyed last night trying to catch up, I called my own wife by her internet name....Gonna have to live that one down!!! To start, {{{{{E'}}}}} did a marvelous job....simply marvelous. She didn't feel that she could put the preambles on her stories like I do, but you know, all I ever do is type what I happen to be thinking about at that given moment. I personly know that one of E's fleeting thoughts are usually better, than my life long ideas! Responsibility to ourselves, to our families (includes you folks as far as I'm concerned), to our casual friends, must never be taken lightly. Each of us has a line we refuse to cross, both good and bad. We are able to say "I am going to do this "for" you, but not anything else, or "to" you, but I will stop short of really hurting you". This is what makes us unique as individuals but also confusing to others, because we cannot see each others lines. Maybe we should show them more often...... Todays Story (Poem): WALK A LITTLE PLAINER, DADDY SAID A LITTLE BOY ONE DAY I'M FOLLOWING IN YOUR FOOTSTEPS, AND I WANT TO KNOW THE WAY SOMETIMES YOUR STEPS ARE VERY PLAIN AND SOMETIMES HARD TO SEE. SO WALK A LITTLE PLAINER, DADDY, FOR YOU ARE LEADING ME. I KNOW THAT ONCE YOU WALKED THIS WAY, MANY YEARS AGO, AND WHAT YOU DID ALONG THE WAY I'D REALLY LIKE TO KNOW. FOR SOMETIMES I AM TEMPTED AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO SO WALK A LITTLE PLAINER, DADDY, FOR I MUST FOLLOW YOU SOMETIME WHEN I AM ALL GROWN UP YOU ARE LIKE I WANT TO BE THEN I WILL KNOW A LITTLE BOY, WHO WILL WANT TO FOLLOW ME. AND I WOULD WANT TO LEAD HIM RIGHT, AND HELP HIM TO BE TRUE. SO WALK A LITTLE PLAINER, DADDY FOR WE MUST FOLLOW YOU. Author Unknown Have a great day all!!!! wb
