Now that I have more time, I'm at a loss for words. You gave us a bit of a scare with your last hospital visit. Try not to do that again, please. It is good to see that you as our resident Ocarina player are keeping your fingers loose and nimble. I mean, to be able too continually make those great quilts, shows your digital dexterity. The little birds on this one for your niece will captivate her as she gets older. I counted 58 birds or bird parts thereof, in the photo you sent. Take care of yourself, my friend, you are an important patch and part of this living quilt that makes up GA. This is an after the fact post, so the cake is but yummy food for thought. The video, well your chosen name here, explains that. As the many before me, I hope... That You Arpeggio (A.K.A. Lacey) Had a Great & Happy Birthday!!!

I wanted to be an editor, but then realized that it would take another editor to edit what I edited for a writer, so I gave up on that idea. The job you guys do is another reason for the success of GA and the quality of its writers presentations. You and the beta readers are that secret ingredient to many of the stories here. Now today is also a milestone for you personally, 25 years old. I vaguely recall back then(at 25), sitting in my tank freezing my butt off, camouflaged, waiting for H hour, in some West German forest late October. The mist and fog so thick you could cut it and the cold just seeping into everyone of my joints. I would like to ad my few words and join in...
