**Quasi** , great to have you back. I hope you stick around–as you can see, you have been missed.

Quasi, as you can see, you have many friends here. The only bad thing I can say about you is that you don’t post here as much as you used to. The only thing that would upset us is if you leave us wondering what happened to you. Here’s hoping 2014 finds you and Dondra in good health. I know how much you love each other and that’s a beautiful thing.

Sometimes it’s the rage that shows the love.

Rage on, and do not go gentle into that good night.

That was beautifully put, **Becky2844.**

**Quasimodem** , I mostly lurk on your threads, but I’ve always liked you because my impression of your general state is that of someone who is sometimes uncertain, but mostly benevolent – and I can definitely relate to that. Whatever it is that you’re going through, I wish you strength and joy.

You are the once and future **Quasi** of myth and legend. We will sing your praises down through the ages long after this round table has turned to dust.

Quasi, all of us have been an annoying jerk to somebody else on this board. That’s OK. Just like fighting with your siblings; when times get tough we stick together.

So, let’s not go overboard on this Little Miss Sunshine/ group hug crap. We are what we are and so are you.

So please just be Quasi. The happy Quasi, grouchy Quasi, angry Quasi is just fine. We know who the real guy is underneath.

It’s good to hear from you, Quasi. I was beginning to wonder if we’d have to cough up bail to get you back on the Dope. 😃

Sending hugs from Tennessee. My regards to Dondra and Bert too.
