Hi, to all of you who are newbies, I want to make my general welcome.
Many of you don't know me and I don't want to seem standoffish. Officially, I am the owner of the board. But frankly, I think all of us are the owners of the board.
I would love to post my personal post to each and everyone of you. However, this past March, I suffered an illness that nearly killed me and I can't be online as much as I'd like and as much as I used to do. Hence, I read the posts, but I often am too tired and weak to comment.
I am so glad that so many of you see the beauty that is Michael. He's a wonderful man and a great actor.
Once again, I am so glad that you joined the board. This board is amazing. The people are nice and courteous. And if your English is not up to par, we don't care. I can assure that we have had people who hardly knew English a year ago, and now they are as good as many of us natives. (Although, in reality, I am not a native either. I emigrated the United States when I was a young teenager.)
For those of you who have been gone from the board and now are back, I am so glad to see you again. If, you like me, suffered some kind of illness, I am glad that you are now better.
For those of you who have lost a member of your family, please accept my sincere sympathy.
As I explained earlier, I don't want you to feel slighted that I have not replied to your posts. It's just that I, at times, find enough energy to read the posts, and cannot find energy to reply.
Thanks for your understanding, and I hope that you will feel right at home with us. Just think of me as that aunt who stays in her room. LOL
