1. I'd love to keep this kicked a little
So, I'd have to say that I love how he is smart and funny, but in another way compassionate, kind, and even has a bit of innocence in a many ways. I'm very lucky to have gotten to know him fairly well and for me, and a lot of us, it's just not the same without him.

I hope all is well, Forrest! (Even if my one and only "I miss you" thread ends up dying a quick death.)

:yourock:

:loveya:

17. My sweet devotion
Edited on Thu Jan-08-04 09:32 AM by populistmom
will hopefully be appreciated again one of these days. He's been a great friend and he deserves a bit of sweetness in his life as things for him have been less than easy recently.

19. I thought about doing another poll once
Who has a bigger crush on Forrest?

1.) HEyHEY
or
2.) Populistmom

I just didn't want to offend your strait maleness, HeYHEY, so I didn't, but I agree, some people need some smacks (and not the kissy kind either).

The state of limbo and chaos. Hopefully, he'll be back soon.

7. damn i am a flake tonite. I didn't realize you were talking about
a fellow DUer until I came back to this thread and read the posts. I thought you meant the Tom Hanks character and I thought you were calling for a sequel to the movie in a roundabout way so I voted "I don't miss him". Duh to me :crazy:

9. OK,PopulistMom I'm offically freaked out by your new sig line graphic.....
That's too frickin' weird and very disturbing....

I really don't want to think about sentient rabbits to begin with, not to mention the fact that they're breast feeding in a rocking chair!!!

And why is that perv of a rabbit watching the whole thing????

?????? :shrug:

13. The sig line
It's a take off of a baby formula logo. The other rabbit is just a bunny sibling. I used to work with postpartum moms and babies and I'm going to nursing school to work further in the field in more clinical areas.
I don't know how long I'll keep the sig line, but I was doing some reading/research the other night and found this. My lactivist self decided to use it for awhile.

That's it in a nutshell anyway.

10. Now the real question is...
Is Forrest a Democrat or Republican?

He has a heck of a mind.

22. Maybe that's what's wrong
He's trying to get out of those $5 he owes you. I doubt it though.
