Thank You Skinner and all of DU
I just want to take this oppurtunity to thank all my friends on DU, too numerous to individually list without forgetting someone, and thank them for thier support on this forum. I also want to thank Skinner for this wonderful website. It's da bomb. :D)

I am a disabled person who only gets out of the house for physical therapy, church, and lobbying once a month. If I am able. As you can see I am pretty well isolated. Anyhow I just wanted to give all of you people a great big hug for putting up with my mood swings and bad typing, and keeping my intellect sharp. You guys are awesome. And I just wanted you to know that I sincerly and humbly appreciate your friendship and patience.

Danny C.

After the election I fell in a three week depression. I was lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did.

24. Actually, Brian Wilson has helped keep me sane, too.
Listened to Pet Sounds and the Beach Boys box set a lot last year.

The election was, pure and simple, a victory for ignorance. (Stolen, or not, and I believe it was stolen.)

P.S. I hate the Barenaked Ladies, by the way. Went to a taping of the Conan O'Brian show a few years back and they did that song.

Edited on Sat Jul-16-05 07:37 PM by DanCa
I am more of joan jett and lita ford and springsteen fan.
Although I do like Manillow and Diamond when I need to seriously mellow out. :D

32. "If I Had $1,000,000" seriously irritating, too.
Sorry.

Nothing wrong with schlock when you need it. Neil Diamond was a really good songwrite when he started out, but Barenaked Ladies just GRATE on my nerves...! They fall into the "You Think You're Really Clever, But Not As Clever As You Think You Are, And You Are Clever In Some Ways, But Not Nearly As Clever As You Think You Are, So It All Cancels Out" category.

The one I can stand the most is probably "Brian Wilson"

Am going to see Springsteen solo show on Tuesday. 10th Row.

:7 :crazy:

only got out for church and the occasional movie, so I feel ya Dan.

I know that the best thing for me was Reiki therapy and a great medical advisor. I'm doing much more these days. Come to the alternative medicine forum and talk with us sometime if your'e interested, and take care of yourself!

34. It's especially nice since I come from a "purple" family
I am amazed I got my old man and brother to vote for kerry this year. The swift boat vet garbage failed in thier case. My dad was a career marine DI and said he would never again volunteer for service. They only red voter we had this year was my aunt henrita who said bush wouldnt cut the ss of old people and my fundamentalist sister selene who follows jerry fawell like teenage girls follow britney spears.

Edited on Sat Jul-16-05 08:02 PM by applegrove
one exacting interests and specific personalities. The internet has changed so much. And the internet is for keeps. Your circle of friends should just be expanding. Great for all the straglers. All of us.

No need to thank anybody. You give as much as you get. Same as anyone else.

38. It's a great community...even with the "bumps and thorns" but the
"interactive" part is the BEST!

:-)'s to you and :hug: because there are so many places here for folks to find a "hang out," and a place of community. Just beware of the "bumps and thorns," but all in all there's something here for everyone if one looks carefully at all the Forums.

54. With a computer and DU we can choose to be isolated or not.
I'm not handicapped, but I live in the boonies and rarely find myself among a bunch of "live" people to talk politics with. Glad you're here, Danny.
