    Wow! You had me laughing non-stop for the first half of this and then I started to tear up...Randy, you're right. He knows what makes each one of us tick, even those of us who don't know him.
    You certainly have a way with words, my friend.

    And what is up with you making everybody cry. First Kurt on another thread and now me...Lighten up! :)

    Just kidding, you go ahead and speak the truth and if the truth makes us sensitive folks tear up, then so be it!

    Hope you got the candy bar.

    Barbara Walters retired so someone has to make people cry.

    cool, I love it when people laugh or cry. I do it all the time. Thank you for the compliments.

    Speaking of sweets ... last night we were given a treat. Bourbon chocolate drops (alcohol cooked out of them.) OHMYGOODNESS I nearly fainted they were so delicious.

    I am even getting woozy at the memory.

    There have been times in my life when people have accused me of being overly emotional. And emotionally I have retorted, "NO, I am passionate! There is a difference!" :)


    Seriously, I often tell people that whenever there is an excess of any emotion, I cry. Whether it be sadness, happiness, frustration, conviction, anger...etc., you name it. If it is present in excess, that excess comes out of my tear ducts. I simply cannot contain it.

    Oh, and Randy, you don't have to lie...We all know you got drunk off of that chocolate. ;)

    Well, if it were true I would admit it but alas...my wooziness was simply over the deliciousness of the little treat.

    I love crying and I am glad you are free to do so.

    Passionate people are wired that way and I am very secure in my masculinity when I confess to crying often for all the same reasons :).
