I'll say now what I was too disappointed to say earlier.

We can always count on Shelly for an informed and thoughtful perspective. Deflation of blowhards is usually close by, too, something that is always near and dear for me. All delivered with a touch of wry humor.

I realize that SoWal will lose some of its novelty as it matures, and the level of frustration has crept up as various factions in the (non-forum) community continue to be the d***heads they've always been. Unlike many internet forums, though, SoWal.com is really a community, and it performs a very valuable community service. Lacking a functional local press, this is literally the only way we can get the poop on what's going down, and organize ourselves to act. We need folks like Shelly.

Don't do it, Shel.

Thank You Shelly

Your thoughtful insight was always a joy. You may never know how many folks sat at your feet and listened to the wisdom you shared on this board.

Enjoy that sunset and hope to see you around. :wave:

Blue Mtn Beach!!
Now I understand when the others were saying you'd be missed.

I am new, but I have always enjoyed reading your posts. But I understand - when you want to leave a forum it just means time is up for you.

I am certain you can always come back.

Have a good life :D

My perfect beach
I'm resolving to give up SoWal-ing in 2010.

Nothing personal...just wanna ride off into the sunset.

Kurt, can ya please close down my account on New Years? It'll help a bunch...otherwise I'll have to get "banned" (and I WILL make it a humdinger!) :cool:

Maaaaaaan, I wish you'd reconsider. Your insightful humor cuts to the quick. Your "riding off into the sunset" line reminded me of one of my favorite movies. Here's a favorite scene. No doubt you already know your "one thing." Vaya con Dios, shelly. And like Bobby J, I'd love to share a cup before you go.

Toodles, I'm waiting for a humdinger.

Kurt, are we allowed to "out" screen names if they've been banned or deleted?
