Okay, youse guys, here it is:
I miss here. I love her quips and quotes, her wit, her sense of when to poke some of us in the ribs or kick us in our "hinder parts".
[SIZE=14pt]Where the heck did Barb go?[/SIZE]
Did someone upset her? (Highly unlikely given her ability to perceive and respond)
Did someone offend her? (Highly unlikely given her strong sense of identity)
Did someone try to censor her? (And why would they?)
The best moments in the creation of the fabric of this forum has been the "characters" and "personalities" of those who frequent and post here.
I know I am about to step on "hallowed ground" here (Hey, I'm madmike2, that's what I do!), but a great percentage of the endearing qualities of TWN and O'valeFJR to this group, this continuum, this collective, was their posts in answer to other's statements and questions.
TWN was on the forum all day long and often posted off-topic, thread hijacking answers (and the now infamous "flying-fickle-finger-of-fate" for those old enough to remember Rowan and Martin's "Laugh In").
OrangevaleFJR would have a "few too many" and post some bizarre and entertaining quips to balance his wonderful ride reports and photographs. "Be careful....I have cows!" for example.
How boring a place would this be without BustanutJoker, odot, and RadioHowie, just to name 3 of the hundreds that give this meeting place a flavor that I, for one, enjoy (though I don't always understand and refuse to try)!
I repeat: [SIZE=14pt]"Where the heck did Barb go?"[/SIZE]
Someone "fess-up"! Orrrr, as an alternative.....fix it (repair the breach, heal the wound, whatever)!
Should we start a poll to see if anyone else feels the same way? Or would this thread be enough?

P.S. It's Friday....so let'er rip!
