What a GREAT start! Been here 20 years now!!!!
An incredible lucky streak brought me here.
A customer turned friend won the lottery and gifted me some cash to have some fun and pay for my mortgage. Then a board member from another board hosted my staying while i attended Sigarms Academy three years in a row. A lifetime experience.
Since i felt comfortable and fitted in immediately at the Academy i felt i’ll give this place an opportunity. I was an HKPro regular.
Extremely shy at first, after 500 post i thought it was time to relax…

Thank you all for everything. I’ve experienced most human emotions while reading or writing posts. Have been saved from myself more than once.
While socio-economic circumstances have prevented me from returning to the States since 2003, distance has no meaning while reading the board.

Thank you Para for this virtual piece of Heaven.

God bless you all.

I'd like to echo "glad you're here"!

When you post about current conditions in
Argentina (and why they're like that); I
know we're getting the straight dope.
