I would just like to let everyone know on this forum that I have apologized both on the open forum and in private message,I have yet to hear from the member and I will leave it at that.This is just to let the member`s who replyed that I should apologize and move on.I apologized the second I found out the member was hurt by my insensitive reply to their question.I have made many,many dear friend`s on this forum and have come to realize that leaving this forum would just make me miserable and lonely not to hear from you every day.So having said that and recieving such overwelming support I have decided to stay,I truly wish with all my heart that the member in question would also have a change of heart and stay but that is up to them.One thing is for sure though I will,from now on only post when I feel it is absolutely certain that it is benefiting someone and that is all,no more sticking my nose where it doesn`t belong.I love all of you and will continue to be of assistance when called upon.God bless all of you for caring about me.
P.S.A special thankyou to Les, Matt and Soph.

Emilio,

Good for you!! I know it's hard to try to please everyone, as a matter of fact, impossible. But, I think it is just a good idea to consider this site as a friendly place where you don't have to worry too much about being perfect. We don't expect everyone to be psychological counselors. But, as a good rule of thumb, I try to consider this to be the same format as if you were meeting a group of people at a face-to-face support meeting. Basically, that would mean that you would use the same decorum as you would there. It does not mean you can't joke around.

We all learn from doing. If you take no risks, you make no gains. How bland it would be if everyone had "canned" responses to queries! And don't forget, you can go back and change your response if you feel you hit that Post Now button a little to quickly.

Hi Emilio,

Welcome back!

This whole site is like one big family to me and like any other family there are bound to be conflicts from time to time. I really hate family feuds and I'm glad you decided to stay because this family would be missing an important member should either of you leave.

Take care

Welcome back, Copperhead! Glad you´re staying with us

Dear Emilio,

Nothing ventured, nothing gained, right?

Welcome back, friend.

OK, Emilio. I'm waiting for your next "corny" joke

Sure glad you are back!

Why was 6 scared of 7?...
Because 7 8 9.

HAAAAAA! My 5 year old told me that one. She also told me this one:

Why did the cookie go to the doctor?

Because he was feeling crummy!

If you need any others, I'll ask her for some more.

Not to be a party pooper...but just a reminder that we need to stay on topic-- j-pouch and related issues, including jokes. Remember that space is limited. It does not mean we cannot have fun, but we should not go off on tangents that are totally unrelated.

Jan

Thank You Jan.
Judy

Can I sneak in a related-issue joke?

What's brown and sits on a piano stool?
Beethoven's last movement.

Thanks for giving me my smile back, folks

Jan are you saying we can`t have a little fun now and then?

New forum...Just for laughs.
I will move any of your topics that are appropriate to this new forum...Thanks!

Perfect solution! I really was feeling like a party pooper and didn't really want to be...
