I'm completely happy and totally in love with my wife....that being said I think I have a man crush on you. lol, (humor). My point is that you just seem to amaze me with your knowledge and wisdom.

I'm a 41 yr old married man with 4 children (so giving advise isn't new to me), however if I could just keep you in my back pocket it would be like having my own bag of all knowing.

Hope I didn't offend you with the man crush joke, Just trying to be light hearted.

Our first priority is to protect the members of the forum from posts that may be harmful.  If someone is in a crisis situation we always post the information  they may seek help but we are not qualified to deal with mental health crisis situations here in the forum.  No comments were post by the OP that depression was involved. If the OP had a email link in their profile I would have sent this person and email to clarify if this was supposed to be a joke ? 

As a person with a 30 year history of depression of the deepest kind, at times, I will always extend a helping hand and have many times here in this very forum as well as the other 3 forums  I moderate.

If you saw the post and did not leave a message then I suspect you found it a bit disturbing also. 

Here is the  list of help links I use when someone appears to be in crisis:

I did not get to read the whole thing, so I'm sure I would have been able to tell it was humor. No worries, I'm not upset with you and I do love dry humor. Now that I have seen more of the post, it's clear to me that you were joking. :o Oh and um...no chance at all of success with using hand sanitizer! lol

If you write that kind of post again please indicate that you are joking as we have members as young as 13 on the forum as well as members with mental health disorders who may have taken you seriously.  Personally I thought you were just being a smart*** . Kidding.........well maybe not - I have a dry sense of humor

too.

All is well,

Kitt

lol, well I guess I brought that on myself, can't say I didn't ask for it.

To be honest I've enjoyed getting to know so many of you all and reading so many life changing moments, you can't help but feel his wierd connection.

 Bruce and ARM are two people I think that I could really enjoy sitting and having a beer and talking about everything from gerd, sports, government, etc....just about anything. Different people, but kinda wired the same.
