My First Year

Well, I've made it my first year. I started posting in this forum right at a year ago. I had plenty of questions/concerns.
I am somewhat of a forum junkie, I love them. This is by far the best forum I have ever been a part of. If folks such as I have questions, they are more often then not addressed fully.

I honestly have to say that this forum has helped quite a bit in the success of my first year. Alot of the internet today is fluff with no real content. It's refreshing to see that some of what the internet was meant to be still exist. An honest exchange of information and ideas, with the only payment being that you in turn help someone else when possible.

My hat is off first to Nathan for creating a forum that is as well run as this one is. Next, the moderators of this board are some of the best I've seen, and lastly, but maybe most importantly are the posters, the lifeblood of any forum, the folks that take their time to carefully read post like mine, then answer to the best of their ability.

So, after my first successful year in business, a real milestone, I want to thank all those that have helped me to acheieve that which in the begining I wasn't sure about. Thank you all!!

Re: My First Year

Yeah! Happy Anniversary, Don. What I want to know is, did Mrs. Don take you out for dinner and buy you roses?
