Re: From today's paper



OK, I suspected you might be only 5'8. But everybody who's new to the
group seems to agree that rctq is something extraordinary.
The day doesn't seem complete when I can't read all your messages!

Our newspaper has an article today titled "Dear E-Friend. Can your cyber
ties be strong, even when you've never met?". I think I'd probably answer,
YES!
It's a fairly lightweight article, with warnings about how some people
aren't who they say they are, you shouldn't loan money to them, (how about
quilts?) etc.
But it did mention some women who say that despite those things, they will
continue to make online friends and enjoy the exchanges.
"Then there's that nagging fear. The one that makes you wonder if the
person on the other end of that cyber tether is really who they say they
are." Ok, I'll confess, I'm not 5'9 120 lbs with an hourglass figure.
But one of the experts nailed it. "We used to call them pen pals. This is
just pen pals on steroids. If you pooh-pooh these relationships, you are
missing out on something." I'll add....something special. I wonder what
these experts would think of our Hug Quilts??
Have a great weekend, my cyber friends!
