Actually Chief you would be surprised at how many people care…very much…not because Opal is a poster on SD…but because she is a person. There are some posts in a thread in the Pit from yesterday where Suzeanne gives a couple of posts from Opal. You may want to hop over there and read them.

I tried there. Sorry. Appreciate the direction. Didn’t mean to piss you off. I only cared. * * * Current board events prohibit me from posting my sig line. ---

Ah Chief, I dont think you pissed anyone off, there are alot of us that care, about alot of people. I hope Opal is doing well also. That was a very scary situation. * * * We are, each of us angels with only one wing,and we can only fly by embracing one another ---

I can’t presume to know how Opal is doing, but I keep checking back to her web site for updates and she seems to be hanging in there. I hope she feels better soon, too 🙂 * * * “I hope life isn’t a big joke, because I don’t get it,” Jack Handy [The Kat House](http://members.aol.com/gr8kat1/KatGen/home.htm) [Join the FSH Muscular Dystrophy Webring](http://members.aol.com/gr8kat1/KatGen/fshwebring.htm) ---

Yes, I have been worried, too. I saw she posted a time or 2 in GQ, and UDD posted once or twice in the Pit, so she’s out there. Doing well, or at least better, I hope. If anybody talks to her, send her our best! ---

Chief, I have seen her over on another board we both frequent. Her posts seem to be okay, nothing out of the ordinary anyway. ---

Best wishes, Opal. I tried to write you, but you weren’t accepting mail from my ISP. Get well soon! ---

No way Chief…you didn’t piss me off at all…I tend to be very blunt at times…my best friend tells me I have no tact that I just blurt things out. I guess on a message board that’s even more obvious. I tend to overlook how things might come across to others. I need to be more careful of that in the future.

Chief…I found the thread. It’s in the thread “For All you Fuckheads that don’t have a life and have to crash on Opal” or something along that line in the Pit. It is a couple of days old now…but Opal did get Suzeanne to post for her there. ---

She recently posted in my “Want VCR, Don’t Want TV” thread over in GQ.

Ooooh, hope she’s doing better! {{{{{Opal}}}}} If I may be permitted.
