Thanks to all that I read and read me, I love you all...ed
(I am not leaving, as far as I am concerned, just that this needed saying)

<<<TIME for THANKS>>>


 


Don’t have much time,


Must be at work by nine,


Don’t want to cross any line,


But am here to tell you all so sublime…


 


You have all become like family,


Wish that I may have known you all in the past,


Maybe we did, in another life, another time, during the last,


It is sort of like we are all the members of a play; yes the cast…


 


Playing our parts, Ed K. & Andy the villains,


Karla and Karen the producers of the storms sounds,


Anna and Eileen the humorist and the romantic,


J. Allen, death with a scythe,


Katy the Viking, sword in hand, ready to go to Valhalla,


Ted S. sitting on the sidelines oogling the girls,


Kate, and her grandkids; combing out curls,


Tom L. the producer, handing out cigars,


Tinka, running around like a chicken with no head, spinning in swirls…


 


Ed M. & Rufuz, the writers herein, just watching the catastrophe,


Susan Sparks bringing and just watching her katts,


It feels time for me to say and to tell you all thanks for all of that,


You have made my life so sweet, so loving, so full and fat,


You have done for me, what no other could,


Made me forget past occurrences, the way I actually should,


You are all the best, none of you at all the lest…

Wonderful heartfelt thoughts, Ed. It truly is like a big family play here, with lots of extremely interesting characters. Thanks for such wonderful sentiments.

And since you and Rufuz are the writers of this play, and you are in a good mood, can you do me one favor? This cast member seems to have it pretty darn easy. Can you get him to do more? Thanks.
