I just want to say how fortunate I feel and how proud I am to be a member on this board. Being able to share a common love that is seldom found out there is a dream come true. During these years I have become quite close to so many of you and the fact that we are able to communicate and build relationshps accross boarders and seas all tied in to movie music is absolutely amazing to me.

While I am not as active on the board as I used to be, for time and life permit me not to be anymore, I still manage to peek in every single day and gladly so. While I care for everyone on this board, I'd like to just mention a few, and if I didn't include you, please don't take it persoannly, for I care for everyone here, it's just the following people have become quite close to me.

PeterK, what can I say. All this would not be happening had you not started this site. I have nothing but respect and admiration for your creation and mannagement of this board. You have always been kind, understanding and truly fair in my book and always willing to talk. Thanks.

Norman McCay, although he are hardly around anymore, you have been a truly appreciated influence in my life. From comics, music to philosophy, I have truly learned a lot from you. We need to talk more often.

Joan, your kind spirit fills this board with the kind of love and respect we really need more of. While we may not talk that often aside from the messages here, you are always in my heart and prayers.

Richard, haven't talked with you for a long time, but I think of you constanly.

Mike, your constant help in finding the types of scores I am searching for can only be overshadowd by the geniunie kindness that radiates from your actions and the words you speak. You are an example of the great blessing this love for soundtracks continue to pour out to me.

Kevin, your devotion to the different passions you have, including the one we share on this board, is simply inspiring. The respect, committment and character you display here, is motivating. Your willingness to share and help is always appreciated. Hope to meet you sometime.

Audacity, you've been on this board since I got here, even longer if memmory serves right, and we had such great times. We need to get into some more trading again. I thank you for you friendship and commitment.

Clay, seeing you and your love and devotion for our passion here not only reminds me of my own beginnings in collecting scores but offers a glims of the kind of spirit that dwells in you. You are a very special soul and I am fortunate to call you friend.

Hasta, wow! Considering how we started out, this has truly developed into a most treasured friendship. You are way beyond your years in maturity and commitment. It's always great to communicate with you. To more of our great discussions.

Justin, man! A close friend, a close brother in Christ. Your commitment in the faith we share is simply awe inspiring and a testimonial to what it means to be a true son of God. Can't wait till we finally meet face to face.

Crono, the man. Late night conversaitions, discussions and simple small talk, what a joy. You are a special person. Your talent transends logic and I know you will succeed in this. You are a great, great friend.

Linda, ahhhhhhhh, what can I say? Your kindness, support and willing ear has meant more to me than you'll ever know. A classier person I have yet to meet and i know that will never happen for you are tops. Hope to see you soon again. Thanks for everything.

Aaron, I miss you man. Your great friendsip and loyality steadly increases my own values. Your talend is mind boggling and your humbleness a true testament to your spirit, class and character. Dont' work so darn hard.

Jeron, the man who together with Crono got me to sign up on Aim. The man who is always willing to listen, always willing to help. Your generosity, support and love have not only helped me through these past two years but have helped to sustain me as well. To call you my friend is a gift from above and it is a joy to see you succeeding in the art you love so much. Thanks for everything.

LemonsAreIcky, you know how I feel about you. Let me just say, that you have given me new life. When I thought the sky was bright as the greatest jewel, you made it so much brighter. I am so proud of you, so happy and I'll always be here for you as I know you are for me.

To everyone else, you have been great people. Sure, we may bicker, we may overstep certain bounderaries, but at the end of the day, I can't wait to see you on the board again and read what you have to say. Thank you all for simply being who you are and sharing your knowledge, desires and thoughts with me.

Lastly I'd like to mention that this is not only my two year aniversary, but also my brother's birthday. He turns 16 today and while I cannot be there in New York with him, Albany NY that is, my heart, spirit and mind is. You give me strenth, you give me courage, you give me life. In just a short time you have made a better person out of me. I thank God for you, every single moment of my life. I love you bro with all my heart, mind, soul and strength.

To be a member here means so much, all I can say is that I am honored. I am blessed. I am fortunate. I am humbled..................... I am finished.

Thanks Again

Hey LemonsAreIcky, if there is such a thing as a perfect brother, then you are it. You inspire and challenge me and that is hard to do all at once.

And I didn't get upset about the book.

Scotty

Anyway - with Scott's words in mind, I finally find myself willing to join this community again. I didnīt really realize this until just now, but Iīve really missed you guys.

Glad I found my way back here!

SFT
