You're spot on Tom. I've only been on the Forum for a few years but have gotten to know many great guys and gals through our love of model (toy) trains. We do form friendships even over long distances, and even if we've never met the person or even heard their voices. I agree with Mel that when the opportunities arise where we can meet face to face it's a good thing. I guess in the old days they would call us pen pals.
Seems that there has been a fair bit of sad news lately for some of the more prominent names that pop up in the Topics window but it is an unfortunate part of life that we all deal with in our own ways.
Enjoy your whiskey.....

I friend sent me these videos the other day. If you think you're having a bad day just watch these and have a laugh.
