Thanks guys. Hey, Wapland; your memories are just like mine! I have the newspapers framed on my wall (ya, I'm sick). Those chapped lips, man-o-man.....I only had chapped lips that bad again late last year when I quit chapstick cold turkey. That's another story! That stuff is addictive and bad....glad I'm off it. Anyhow, I have a few "next endeavours" on the stove...but they're top secret! ;) Just the record, I'm not so humble and such a great guy. I've tried to make money off you crazy lot right from the get-go, but it's always been rather fleeting, and you always get something in return so..... If Nathan and Starr want to know my past, they can come here and ask.

Neil, Just wanted to stop in and say thank you for TVCH and everything it's become. Seems everyone else's heartfelt posts already say what I would say, so will just leave it at mega-thanks for everything, and best wishes to you and your wonderful family. (((Neil)))

First off, I apologize for my late post, as I have been on vacation. The words are not coming easily, but I wish Neil & his family all the best. He has created something truly great, and while I don't always post often..this is where some of my best friends are. I spent many nights around a piano last week singing this song, and it is once again appropriate... Making your way in the world today takes everything you've got, Taking a break from all your worries, sure would help a lot. Wouldn't you like to get away? Sometimes you want to go... Where everybody knows your (screen)name, and they're always glad you came. You wanna be where you can see, our troubles are all the same You wanna be where everybody knows your (screen)name. The next 2 verses really capture the essence of TVCH and our trials & tribulations.... All those night when you've got no lights, The check is in the mail, And your little angel Hung the cat up by it's tail, And your third fiance didn't show.... Roll out of bed, Mr. Coffee's dead, The morning's looking bright, And your shrink ran off to Europe, And didn't even write, And your husband wants to be a girl.... Be glad there's one place in the world Where everybody knows your (screen) name, And they're always glad you came, You want to go where people know, People are all the same, You want to go where everybody knows your (screen)name.

That brought a tear to my eye Pc. As I kinda have nothing to do I was just going thru some of the archives and oh they brought back memories. Good memories lol. I was a regular chatty cathy back then. How times change and people change. Chat is definately a place where everybody knows your name and you get a friendly hello and goodbye. I remember way back when I first started going to chat. It was kinda tough at first getting into the conversations, people who used to be regulars aren't anymore. Heck even I've slacked off due to r/l. But it's still a place where everybody knows your name (no matter how many times I switch lol.)

Neil, I was brought up with the guidance that one person CAN make a difference. What can I say; my mom is a wise lady. Those are words I have lived by and pass along to my niece, nephew, and friends. Okay, and just about anybody who talks to me! LOL! WOW Neil, just Look at the difference you have made is so many lives with TVCH! You have changed lives. Perhaps even saved lives. The fact is that you matter to so many people. I lurked from the beginning. Got a bit braver and said what the heck go forth and be chatty! LOL! Here I found life long friends, cheerleaders and a soul mate. All came to me just when I needed them. Just like TVCH. You can never understand how hard it is to merely say Thank you. It just doesn’t seem like enough to say to a man who has forever made a difference to me. Thank you and God Bless. Pammie

Neil, I just want to thank you for all you've done. I wish you much happiness and good times. I've been here since before TVCH was born, back when you first started the BB clubhouse. This board has made BB, and many other shows, more enjoyable. And I've enjoyed the various other threads, sharing others' lives and hurts and happiness. Thank you again for a wonderful thing! Best wishes in all your future endeavors! ...sue

From one Canuck to another - thanks for everything you've done here Neil ... this is one of my favourite places to go to for information, fun, and of course, BB chatter. May your future bring you even more good things.

For some reason, I'm just finding this thread. It was what I was looking for a couple of weeks ago, lol. Just wanted to say thank you to Neil for starting this board. It's been fun hanging out here the last four years. What a brainchild you had. Your daughter, Starr, is absolutely adorable and I wish you and your family the best of luck in the future.

The only complaint I have about TVCH is that I've aged five years and become an old codger since I first ventured to the original BB fan club. Guess it beats a retirement home. Neil and Lisa and family wishing you much good luck and many more wonderful adventures in the years ahead.

This is an amazing site. My experience of it has been very personal and I'm so grateful for it. Quite often, in the midst of tragedy, there have been pockets of sacred space at TVCH. I do not know Neil, other than as a strong presence behind the scenes. At the same time, enough was shared about his personal life, wedding (I remember a picture of a train?) & growing family for me to get a sense of what honourable, decent people he & Lisa are. Lucky people. People who made their own luck by caring & endeavouring to do their best. It is impossible to miss the goodwill that underlies TVCH & it definitely had a source as well as a legion of caring participants who sustain it. When I see the various poster's names I remember some very funny, sad & memorable times. I'm grateful for all the unexpected blessings. God bless & keep you & yours and all they may encounter on their way.
