Yes Paula did birthdays, amazingly so! There were also plenty of congrats , condolences, sports, OT stuff sometimes. Now it seems, (seems) everything is "verboten" . There is virtually no traffic on the list in comparison to several years ago. Days can go by and its only "crickets". I think it may be one of the reasons so many have gone to Facebook. Lots of groups and discussions, you can talk about anything you wish , and photos. Birthday Wishes , Anniversary, Sympathy, abound, with no limit on the number an individual can send or receive. Lots of fun stuff, something for everyone., lol]] Even people from the List who swore they would never go to FB have now found their way there, I am happy to see. The list is great, but these days, only a few people use it, and it is the same small group people over and over and over. Too many restrictions may not be helping. What a shame. Not a slam, just an observation Have a great day guys. Kathy *http://www.victorygermanshepherds.com <http://www.victorygermanshepherds.com/>* *CH. Elvaston's Nations Cup TC, 26 BOBsCH.
