Hi Y-Not,
Yes I knew about MT-NewsWatcher. And to missing you. I consider you a
resource on Mac stuff. So when I didn't see your name anywhere for a
couple of days. See you done it again by telling me of Pan.
As to our friend. He didn't tell me you were online with him at that
moment. And I figured you were in the newsgroups. As to you leaving
and being like Puck. I understand.
As to the messages in Np home away from home. I ported them from my
home to his cause the birthday boy another mutual friend. would surly
show up and read what I had posted. As to the welcome. It was my home
I was meaning and not NP's home.
"Usually, we don't really appreciate what we have,
until after we loose it.
Don't wait for that to happen."
