2002...Reflections...Reviews and various personal thoughts...

[Justice4all]

Well this is it...2002 is about to pass thru the annals of History. It has been an interesting year for me.
I lost two family members who I loved dearly, but it made me come close to my family. More then I have been in decades almost. I moved out on my own for the FIRST time in my life. I learned that PS2 is not as addicting as I had thought! I had a few personal dreams come true...one was to see a Stanley Cup Final game live.
But aside from all that...Ron and Fez and their "family" became a part of my life. I had met alot of you at the Big Ass Night of Fights 2 in May. And since then I have been to many gatherings and meets. Now I do not want to go on a rant here...but because of alot of you my life took a turn for the better in so many ways.
There is many folks on here who are very different, and I like it likes that! I met HSC who is VERY funny and witty. He is going to go places in life, but for now he will stick with his snow bunny. I met BobbyP, one of the most MELLOW men in the freakin' universe. Jenn, who makes ULTRA AWSOME jello shots. (ANd who looks really cute in that hat she wore at the softball game) Jon, who works tirelessly to make outings very enjoyable. SexyBastard who has one of the most kindest souls on the planet. He is VERY in touch with his feelings...I am envious.
Oh lord the Sotfball game...most likely the best time we ALL had. No matter what happened over the year...it cannot be denied as the best outing we had. I remember Karioke with Ari and Missy and Fiesty and Erole, Silent Spic (keep them pics COMMING). I know I sing like shit...but hell we had a great time.
Hard Rock ROCKS...2 times over.
As far as WNEW is concerned, we lost Opie and Anthony. It still seems like yesterday they were fired and life started to reel for the rest of us, who feared for Ron and Fez's lives. There is ALOT of people who I am leaving out...Furie and Zathrus (thanks for liking my impersonation of your Character). Wile E. (my favortie politician) Erole!!! My friend...my favorite red headed step-child!
Fiesty and Katalina who I am VERY VERY proud to call my friend, along with Moshin and Cristy ( we sure muddled thru alot of drama huh?) Inky who remembered me at BANOF2...and so on. I am sorry for those who were not mentioned...but you are not forgotten.
Thanks to you all I look foward to 2003, let's see what it brings.
Another War? I hope not...let's work on PEACE for once.
Baeball strike again? GOD can we move on? (Nellie...maybe Boston this year??)
What do we have to look foward to?
Terminator 3, Xmen 2, LOTR:The Return of the King, Matrix 2 AND 3, well my ASS will be happy (god Jenn PLEASE no gay jokes...I know this one was tempting)
All I know is I look foward to more meeting...more greetings and more time well spent with friends.
Ron and Fez will be saved. Thanks to me and you. (yes YOU)
I will finish by saying God Bless all of you. And God Bless Ron, Fez, Mikey D., Rory, Al, Earl, WonderBoy and the rest who make it happen. Without them, there is no US.
Happy New Years everyone...may it be safe and above all FUN!
SEEEYUH!
P.S. A special tip of the cap to all the Mods, roaming and stationary, you helped make this board work (Most of the time) BRavo ladies and gents.
Anyone else wish to Reflect? (Sorry it was long...had a bit to say)

Like Justice, 2002 was the year that I finally came out from behind the keyboard and attended some board events (unofficial/official alike), and met some of the coolest people I've ever been surprised to meet. Thank you all for being who you are. I look forward to many more meetings and memories in 2003. Happy New Year my Big Ass Buddays!!!

Well....for some reason NYE is the only time I seem to get nostalgic and thankful for alot of the shit I experienced during the year.It had its downs....I got laid off, broke up with my girlfriend of 3 1/2 years(or is that a really good thing ??)...and I lost a friend to the cancer. But without tragedy you cannot appreciate the good things you have in life. Because of this board and the OA.com board I have met and made some really good friends. Alkey,Silera,Rape,Poison Ivy,Tricia,Amy,AIMP,Hosp,Drusilla,Gonzostyle,F1ggy ....and anyone else I forgot, I do apologise(too many to name), its been fun knowing all of you. We've gone out, gotten drunk together,been places and seen each other at our best and our worst. Im truly thankful for the experience of knowing you guys and count you as close friends.Ive included you guys in my circle of friends as you have included me in yours. I look forward to alot more outings,posts,gay jokes and whatever else 2003 brings.Hopefully there will be more good in our lives and no bullshit. First round is on me.


I will now go back to being my usual morbid,sarcastic,rude self now!!

FEAR....FEAR attracts the fearful....the strong, the weak, the innocent, the corrupt.....FEAR....FEAR is my ally!!!

in 2002 i had some very high and some very low points...im sorry to say there were more low than high. i was in and out of a few relationships with some great people. i met a whole shit load of new people from this board who i love (some like brothers who i fuck) the softball game was one of the most awesome times ive had all year. i love my jersey hehe. this yeay i also learned how much of a pussy i am. how awful i could be. how quickly i can fall for someone and let it run my life. i learned some things about myself that i like and others that id like to change.
i lost 2 very important people in my life, my great grandmother and my grandfather. shit theres way too much to say. i guess ill end with saying this...to all the people who have been there this year and the few who i have known much longer i love you so much and i appreciate all you have done for me. i couldnt ask for better friends.(unless, of course, i was on oa.com hehe) lets hope next year will be better than this year.

[sexy bastard]

it was tough year from being excessively stalked, to my grandmother passing, to my mom being very sick, to my sister about to lose her job, my ex dumping me like a bad habit, when i needed her the most, and to my own personal health scare.then to the good points my book being edited, getting the copyright done and learning that there are so many wonderful people i have met thru this message board, I look forward to 2003 to alot of unknowns but that road so far looks promising

Hmmm. I joined one year ago on NYE, so I guess I should contribute.

Every event I was able to make has been fun (even Hosp's sausage fest :)) and I think it's a great testament to Ron and Fez that they draw in people that can get together and have a good time with each other.

Thanks to the Mods and Admins for keeping the board here for us to chat, gripe and share.

Thanks to "The Buddays": Ron, Fez, Rory, Hawk, Wonderboy, Tenacious C, Billy Staples, and Al Dukes for a great year of radio, and good luck to Harry T. and the new guys, too...

To everyone on the board, I wish the best of times in the new year. I don't want to make a list and leave anyone out.

Everyone raise your glass, have a safe night, and I'll (hopefully) see you all next year.

well this year was jammed packed for me. i started rolling into a great career, and getting back on my feet. the end of last year was horrible. i lost my woman, my job, and almost my living quarters. so this year was one of rebuilding, and next year will be one of realized dreams. i cant wait.

i also, like many others, started to go to board events this year. i met a lot of cool people who became cool friends. got to go to the studio and see the boys do their thing, and took many opportunities to make a fool of myself. nontheless i had a good time at all the shindigs i attended.

so i think thats it, thanks to all of you guys that made me feel welcome, and heres to another year of Ron and Fez!
