Hi everyone

First and foremost thanks to the proprietor (doesn’t that sound grand!) for letting me write here - and teaching me what the middle zone’s all about…

@ Liz, I’m glad you enjoyed it. When I read through the story I realised it was a lot about how to say thank you, which is kind of what we were talking about earlier. I love these synchronicities

@ Brad - definitely! In fact, the more I think about it, the more I think everything is down to your state of mind…

Joanna, I'm honored and pleased to welcome you to the Zone as a writer! (I almost said contributor, but of course you've been contributing all along in your comments and our WILF projects.)

Liz, I appreciate your support in helping get me and the Zone into a more "relaxed" mode. When I look back at some of my first posts, I think, "Man, was I uptight!"

But eventually I found out how to be myself (sound of animals and small children running away screaming) and just... well, learned to let it flow. Many thanks!

Joanna,
Wow! Out of this world wonderful. I was right there with you every second. I feel rejuvenated, refreshed like I’ve had a cold beer on a dusty, dry day. Thank you so much.

Robert,
You show your brilliance in how you let others shine.

Joanna, thanks for sharing a bit of your background. Your post makes me realize humor is not a writing technique, it’s a state of mind.
