(7,712 posts)Worth the time, it's not "War and Peace". Dull people like me thank you, I'm not blessed to be interesting like some are, but I'm always interested in finding out about people who are. Others, not so much. But keep it up, sharing is *your* purpose for all of us.
And I find that interesting.
