I was just recently with 2 of those new soon to be contributors together with husbandry over the weekend. I loooovveeee, love, love their family's resort house (mansion more like it. or no... acres of land maybe). I'm so glad I have rich friends. Haha! But seriously, besides the great digs, these are great people as well. It seems that the people we will have here at soapbox were meant to be together. We haven't been "barkadas" all that long but it seems as though it was all meant to be. We cannot go through a week without seeing each other. "N's' visit to the States was as hard on us as it was for "i" and he was gone all of 10 days. I love that we all have different opinions, different tastes and different ideas. But one thing we all have in common... as "n" so nicely put it... we all enjoy life. And that's just how all of us should be.
