These are many of my good friends from RL as well as on the net, many of the net-friends I have been fortunate enough to meet in RL too and they are and always will be just as cherished.--JA

In RL. long before the Net was in use or useful. *grin*

starsLaura and Georgestars
First is Laura and George together, the finest match ever made via the net, Goddess bless you both. Though I met Laura in RL at work, she met her George on-line and what a great day that turned out to be! They were married in May of 2002. WTG you two!

starsMarshastars
Then there is Marsha in typical, "trust me" barmaid mode. She and I share a long history as bartenders, from a time when bartenders were trained and it was a career and not a "fill-job" line of work. We are both pleased to be permenently retired from the difficult job of running bars that made many a large man run in fear for his life. They refer to them now as rough places with warnings like, "don't go there alone." hee hee, friends in RL since 1986, WOW!

starsMy former RoomiestarsKellystars
next, my former roommate and longtime friend, Phil next to his lovely daughter, Kelly. She'e not only a beauty, she's a force to be reckoned with. A Lady Attorney who is not practicing as she has found better opportunity in other things. And yes guys, she's still single and living in Milwaukee, WI. Soon to transfer to Chicago!

LauraRockme126 AKA AutumnSoulscream
This is my friend, Laura yet again, looking studious and now she and George live in NC as that is where he is stationed. She is very fortunate to have the man of her dreams. Then, this one, my friend in Alabama, she is known on the web as Rockme126. She is a rock fan and lady drummer, seeking a band :)and she, too, is no longer single! And last but never least, my dearest male friend here at home, SoulScream, a dearer man a woman can only hope to call friend, goddess bless you, Andy!

Autumn and I out on the town
And here is my friend Autumn (AKA still is Rockme126 on yahoo) and I in a more recent pic when seeing the Mutt Brothers play in a local club here in Alabama. pic taken 12-18-04

The Mutt Bros Live
Here we have the Mutt Brothers live at a local club, they are an amazinly talented band and I intend to do my part in getting them the nationwide and worldwide attention they deserve. Pic taken 2004.

First there is Ross of Australia, though we chat seldom these days, I will always be grateful for all his moral and immoral support o'er the net. Ross, you rock, darlin'. *Note: Now I have another friend, from here in the south, who is now in Iraq working on choppers as a civvie, lets all pray to the gods that he makes it home to his sweet little daughters, Gods please protect Dante, for his family, and those of us who are his friends.

Brian-YumBri in his Guard outfit, YUM
And this is Brian, the newest edition to dear friends,
he has helped me see myself in a better light than I have in a long time, Thanks Bri. Met on-line in November this year and in RL as well as he is a local in Madison, WI. What a good an honorable man he is. His heart is truly made of solid gold from the gods above! He is also a talented song writer, guitar player with a voice that just rocks. Formerly in the US Navy, now in The National Guard. WTG Bri! Goddess bless you Bri, a friend who will always hold a piece of my heart, he taught me how to love again. For that, I will always be grateful. And he went to Iraq, did the job and made it home safe, thanks to all the gods. They were listening, as always.

Lynx
And next, a handsome Swede and a dear long lost net-friend who hunted and, yes, found me only to lose me again!! The gods were indeed kind and fickle as well we know. And he and I have yet to meet as well. Alas. Click on his pic to see his website.

Jordan Avon

And last, but far from least, an amazing, dear man who has once again found me in cyber and who once showed me that the muse can be shared as the romatic poetry section demonstrates well, ever and always he shall be my Knight of the Quill, Jordan
