Rbc | Thursday, September 28, 2000 - 02:34 pm  Thank you so much for your wonderful heartwarming story. I hope you are feeling much better now. We have been cheering for eddie since we started to watch bb & to us his good heart & soul has endeared him to our family. What eddie and his friend did was a thoughtful gesture and I am sure it was because you are a wonderful person too. May God's love fill your heart with gentle peace. Oh yes, this is the first time I have seen this message and I am so glad that I did. Thank you again for sharing. |

Trixie | Thursday, September 28, 2000 - 06:09 pm  Thanks Stealth for sharing. Franny - I agree with you. Some of us just don't enjoy sitting on our a$$e$ all day. |
Annah | Thursday, September 28, 2000 - 06:29 pm  Thanks for posting that ....Eddie just can't help himself...in spite of the tough exterior, the guy has a huge heart....can't help but love the guy... and for those who hate his bad language...he'll outgrow it..just the way most young guys do...even they get tired of it after a while...the novelty wears off as a person gets older. |
