As a new member of the Feelings thread, I would like to extend my heartiest New Year's greetings to my new friends (whoever you are). Christine, as you may suspect, a great number of potions, ointments, and secret ceremonies were required to effect my transformation from class action lawyer to respected member of such organizations as the Diners Club. As for there being no second acts in American lives, well, Ella Fitzgerald never would have sang this had she met me. At the ripe old age of 38, I gave up wandering the foggy back alleys of East London in search of class actions for life at a small company I founded. If our research is successful (we have a wonderful team of merry hunchbacks working double shifts in our laBORatories), we will come up with a product to de-fog the back alleys of East London so that more class actions may be found there. Ah, life comes full circle. A Happy & Health 1998 to All!!!!!

Drat, Christine, I may have to hang with you tonight. Not that I mind, hanging with you. Snowed in, can you believe it and New Year's Eve of all days. I was heading out to my place in the country to commune with nature and all living things. But, alas, my plans have changed, no debauchery for me this New Year's Ever. Already drank one bottle of bubbly, may start the second one any minute now. I hope I don't get too loud, I'm sure Jimmy will give me a slap and put me in my place if I do. I really have to post to Skipper2, seeing he doesn't like Feelings, isn't that the name of a song. Well, Skipper2, Skipper1 signed on first so you will just have to get used to it. Did you know, Christine, that Skipper2 drives airplanes, no that should be, flies airplanes, don't you just love a man in uniform. I checked out his profile, he's 52 and makes the most serious posts ever, he really needs Feelings. Maybe, it was Fate, that he accidently stumbled across your humble thread, Christine. He must have been drawn through the rift in the parrelled Universe by the magnetic force of Feelings, Mind your own business, David Duchovy, and leave Skipper2 where he is...My, I'm getting positively chatty here. Think I will get another glass of wine. Christine, what you said about being a middle aged woman, don't you think that forty something is the best age ever. Finally, we are free to explore all the possibilities that life offers. And men think they are old when they hit forty-something, I don't understand that. Its a great age to be. Its not old, everything you have done up to now, has been preparation for this time in your life.. 0;-))

<< . . . to play my annual new year's eve game of Castle Risk (a little like Risk, and earlier version of the game with etc., etc.>> WHOE!!! You know how to play Risk? And you like to play it? I'm impressed! I used to play the game sooooo much! I got on a bad losing streak for a while, got extremely mad, and took a second edition game out to a concrete bridge, poured gasoline on it, and lit it up. I vowwed to never play the game again! Gee, it sure would have come in handy 6 months later when I got to wanting to play it again. Speaking of which, if a satisfactory go-between can be found, I'd be willing to pay a $100 for a first or second edition in good condition. I LOVE/HATE the game!!!
