Oh my!   The Promise is...well... hmmm... let's just put it this way -                  Jeanie's husband calls it an "ORAL CONTRACT!" It is considered an honor of the highest degree just to be given "The Promise"  - especially in public - and "the Promise" , when given simultaneousluy by a large group of us, bestows the highest possible honor upon the promisee.  Note: no follow up or follow through is in any way implied or given with "The Promise".  Not that follow up or follow through never occurs, but it is definitely up to the Promiser to decide... And, as you said, for the record: . Teeheehee

I know there is no way I would of had the DS if not for this forum and DS.com - I am very grateful to all of you!

I just love this group!

...and there's our little mascot. Sancy

I'm in!   

I just added a line acknowledging my membership to FLAKSAP on my signature line...i wonder if we can get some funky membership stamp to put on our signature lines.....  You know .....Angela accused us of not being "real" people......but i'd like to offer her pictures of my scar to see just how real I am and my experiences with the DS really are....Hey if you want I'll even send out out a nice bottle of ode to DS farts.....it comes in 2 sizes, small (which can knock out a room full of people) and large (which can take down a small town). lol. Scott 

I stole your FLAKSAP membership line... Thanks!

I obviously must NOT miss reading over the weekends!  But Scott, I'm not sure, am I a "real person?"  I can assure you I am NOT normal, and have no intention of becoming so, but REAL?  ~scratches her head~ Jezia

"What is REAL?" asked the Rabbit one day, when they were lying side by side near the nursery fender, before Nana came to tidy the room. "Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?"

"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."

"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.

"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."

"Does it happen all at once, like being wound up," he asked, "or bit by bit?" "It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't often happen to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept.  Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."

Well, that certainly explains this: It's because we love you so much!
