Last week I posted a opinion piece about “Single and Alone for the Holidays” (No I’m not going to post a link! That article has run it’s course.)

You would be surprised at the number of responses I received via “Freep Mail” (There were millions!…well dozens.) Anywho, the thought occurred and was suggested by “Texana RED” (thanks for giving me permission to use your name) that next year we should have a Freeper Christmas Party for those of us who are single adults.

The original thread (No, I’m still not going to post a link.) was about how non-responsive churches are to the needs of single adults, especially during the “Holidays.”

What do you think? …About the idea of a Freeper Christmas party, I mean.

Think about what you did this last week… do you want to go through the same next year? Tell us! Maybe we all can make it happen!(The party...not the link to the other thread...which I still refuse to post!)

What are your plans for this New Years?

I'm glad they are nicer to you then they were to me. They assumed I was an idiot.

Grrrrrr! Isn't that the worst? I'm pretty computer knowledgeable, but I always was told that they HAD to go through an idiot checklist, question by question. This after being on hold for forty minutes with the most annoying music on earth boring its way deep into my brain. I swear I STILL hear that horrid tune in nightmares once in a while. Yech.

Is she partial to drunken ex-gateway salesmen bearing shotguns?

I'm glad you had better experience with them than I did.

What? No table for Orthodox Druids? I think I'm offended . . .. LMAO!

I remember going through that 3 times. It's the motherboard. I know it's the motherboard since it happened once already.

Still on there for an hour.
I'm a football coach. My players wondered why I was such a bad mood that day.

I have the ability to make their lives miserable..... and I will use it. Generally, though, I only have to open big blue eyes and nicely ask for help. Sexist, but it works :)

Oh yeah! NOW I remember - you have Gateway STORES there, right? Makes a difference. I could use MY blue eyes on 'em too, if I could talk to someone in person.

As it is, they just hear a p*ssed off alto. Doesn't work quite as well. ;-)

"What? No table for Orthodox Druids? I think I'm offended ."

LOL! Unfortunaltely due to space limitations...you'll be seated at the "Kwansa" table. But, if your a "looker" I'm sure there will be plenty of Drunks from all denominations hanging around your table. :)

[SCalGal]

Oh, you called.... because I only have one computer- and I know DEAD when I see it, I took the box in.... big blue eyes ONLY work in person. I never call when I can just "drop by".

ROFL. I probably met you before then and not know it.

[SCalGal]

You don't have STORES!!?? Oh, how awful.... no wonder you get terrible service.

Dear sterling,

Although I'm not single I am miserable (and feel alone) around Christmas and found comfort, comaraderie, warmth and wit in your wonderful "single and alone for the holidays" thread on Christmas. Thank you so much. I think a party next year is a grand idea!

Yours, hills

When I'm in South America (1987) I'm known as "El Grumpster de Magnifico." LOL! :)

[buccaneer81]

all the good women are taken, lol

Not true! My ex-wife is taken and she's no damn good!

[SCalGal]

"Conservative" is an endangered species out here. Think maybe we could get a grant and do a study? *L*

[SCalGal]

ROTFLMAO

[grumpster-dumpster]

Who's this sterling guy? LOL

Thank you for your warm comments. There are a few of us here who are serious about having a Freeper Christmas party next year. The tone of this thread has taken a more light-hearted road...and that's a good thing.

You are most welcome to join us next year when this happens (as it will...God willing).

Have a very Blessing-filled, Happy New Year!

"all the good women are taken"

You would dare say such a thing on FR? Hhruummph!
