87. It's my birthday here, too!

Mon Jan 20, 2025, 07:53 PM

Jan 20

I joined on Jan. 20th, 2005, though I'd been reading for quite some time for before that. Obviously, by my post count over 20 years, I don't post a whole lot. But I read daily, learn so much and share that knowledge with family and friends that don't have cell phones or computers, and it does make a difference.

Thank you for this site that has kept me and some close to me sane for all of these years.
