**Well, it’s true that _Friends_ didn’t… but my life isn’t a TV show! Besides, allthese people are (or were) all my friends. 🙂 (from church, school, the online world, various other places…)**

Hmm. Apparently contractions don’t get colorized. I’d always wanted to do the above, as well. Now I have… and that’s the last post like that you’ll see from me. (except in these kinds of threads, or test threads)
