Reviving the Garden Party

9 years ago

last modified: 9 years ago

If it were not for the generous work done by don-socal, I fear this forum would just die off. I am as much to blame for it's languishing as anyone else, and it's only because don mentioned the GP on another forum that I checked in today.

I met some of the nicest people I've evr met on the old GP, and I'm still friends, either in person or in cyberspace, with many of them, such as rob333, andie, janet in md, First Kim, jodi, lilo, mary collins, and many more.

I used to do a lot of movie reviews, even getting in trouble with Spike because Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 911 was so controversial and really got posters riled up one way or the other.

I can't commit with the steadiness displayed by don, but I'll make an effort to write a review now and again.

@ Pidge: I loved the work of Michael Moore. I did not know about these movie discussions until now. I hope this can be revived. I get a bit burnt out by all the bitterness at HT.

By the way, if you love books, RP forum is a great place to post.

Thank you Pidge, it is nice to have a bit more company here. This could be like the conversation side of HT for some from there. Many have mentioned the loss with regret. Perhaps some will be interested in the quotes and add comments. Poetry is here on occasion in the quotes and brings Sweet_Betsy from Kitchen table.

Pidge, I remember the Fahrenheit 911 posts, tempest in a teapot. Saw you the other day while browsing another forum and almost posted to you to visit here. It's getting kind of lonely here.

I welcome a place away from the hot in HT. I'll do more movie watching so I can share my thoughts.

Did my "duty" to revive. Hope Lilo (and anyone else who wants to) will join me on our old journal thread...

Thank you, Don, for the work that you do. I read here everyday but I don't post much--a shrinking violet, you know. In the old days I read some of the greatest discussions here. It makes me sad that those don't happen anymore.
