Oh my God . "Therefore, $7.20 a gallon......is that in US dollars or is that in Euros?? that makes a big difference."
Ok, glad i'm responsible for the good laugh but it wasn't my attention!

How on earth did she wind up here if she wasn't a FM fan? Her profile says she last logged in back in 2008, but I think she stopped posting regularly quite some time before that.

This is all making me terribly nostalgic for the Ledge of years past. Mary, dissention, strandinthewind, sparky, TheTower - those were some...strong personalities, shall we say.

I think cute little puppy dogs suck.

There, does that help?

He kept up with his LiveJournal for a long time after he left the Ledge, but he hasn't posted there in a couple of years. Last I knew, his boyfriend was pushing him to get married - I'd love to know whatever happened with that. Can you imagine dis getting hitched?

He never seemed like the marrying type.

I miss his posts, though. Those were some good times.

OMG, I remember that one.

Oh, she was something alright. Like, it was hard to believe she was real.

Poor Mary my ass. She was mean, hateful, vindictive. Oh, and a bigot.

Yes. The old grey mare just ain't what she used to be...

I miss him too. I was just thinking that the chit chat forum isn't as fun as it used to be, in fact, I hardly ever come here anymore. We had some characters back in the day! Strand and Dissention never failed to make me laugh on a daily basis.

It's usually pretty fun to pore over the Ledge archives at http://ledge.fleetwoodmac.net/archive/index.php/.

I was reading something there the other day and stumbled across the name Kisspirit. Remember her? That was about fifteen years ago.

Several people from the past have, sadly, died, including Vianna and Barbara. I know there were others who have transitioned.

Our little community here at the Ledge (just like our little community over there at rmasn or amfm) is akin to a long-running sitcom: lives are lived, all jumbled together with joy and sorrow, growth, freedom, and redemption ... sometimes with cast changes (like Dick Sargent replacing Dick York).

It's a little microcosm of existence here, like Grover's Corners in Our Town. We even have our little cemetery on the hill. (I guess you could say I'm the Stage Manager.)
