I will take the time to answer each of you as you took the time to reply to me... And as I sit here doing this, posting this thread was a gamble on my part and probably was on yours too!!
Might add it was gratifying and shows a different attitude than before for which undoubtedly spells success for this site!!
jodyand- Thanks, already asked and answered!
Admin- Thanks, same as Jodyand!
Wingnut- Edited to include My favorite Texan and the same Thanks as above!
Durwood- It's nice to see you again too!! I always gravitate to your posts, Think it's the captivating nature of your Avitars!!
Paul B- Same here and thank you!
Ernie-"Some days, it's not even worth chewing through the restraints.." And as we have said privately many times I sincerely hope this change holds for all of you! Thanks again for your demonstrated friendship!

Bruce- "What are the odds? Two Okies, in Yankee land. I live out near Blanchard, how bout' yourself? At any rate, welcome aboard. There seems to be a lot of good people here, and a lot of experience to be shared. You know, before the internet, kinfolks, coffee shops and the telephone were my only limited sources for rea-world experience. Forums like this are a Godsend, aren't they?"
Grove, OK - Yes they can be as long as a bit of humor is not taken as a personal suppository!! But that refers to a now defunct site!
AEGT(Anthony)-"Glad to see you made your way back into the flock.
It just wouldn’t seem like home without you here."
Thanks my friend and I wouldn't of done it but for your encouragement!!
Projects, Perhaps later will see what rears it's head in the future!! You do a better job anyway!!
HarryG- Goes w/o saying and how about a post or two to update us on that Combat boy of yours!! :smilie_fl
KC- Yes indeed, it is ironic that I was banned from the previous site and those critics have yet to appear on this thread !! Go figure :fing20: But the invitation is open and for all to see if they feel it's necessary!!!
BTW concerning your avitar it's gone from bad to worse, Find something you like and send it to me via e-mail (you have it) I'll shrink it for you and send it back in a format for you to post directly!!
Cat Daddy- "ROF ROF ROF ROF ROF ", What's more to say 'cept if you can't say something nice just post a ROF !!!
John-in-GA- "Welcome Back Archdean,
Where ever it is you are coming back from, you didn’t happen to run up with Andy? Either coming or going?
Notice, I addressed you with your whole screen name. I did this because I miss the old Archdean and hope the philosophy expressed in your new signature line doesn’t mean you won’t be setting off a little fire works once in a while. At any rate, glad to be back on the same board with you and I’m sure whatever you do will help make this site great."
Simply put John, That is one of the nicest things I have ever read and the main reason I wanted to address those that took the time to welcome me back!!
As soon as someone feels it's in there best interest to light the fuse permanently attached to Archdean I suppose the fireworks will return providing it has any merit!! :fing20:
