One year has passed…

…give or take a couple of hours, since I rejoined Amaz0ns.  In that time I've posted nearly 1900 times.  One year ago today I'd helped prepare the Christmas chicken, as I just now have again, and resubmitted my details.  Some of you may remember that I claimed at the time to have accidentally deleted my membership; now is, I suppose, the right moment to admit that I lied.  I had actually purposefully deleted my account in a fit of self-loathing at my (then) newly-discovered predilection for buff women.  It was, as many of you know, the first in a sequence of attempts to dissociate myself from my feelings and to "cure" myself of them.  I am sure that I was a right royal pain in the butt for you guys at the time, and, for that, I apologise. :-[

Since that evening, you guys and girls have shown me much warmth, hospitality, support, banter, and, occasionally (Lingster himself usually), a damn satisfying opponent in oft-heated but always friendly argument (with the exception of having to berate Jon Davis for his outburst against Kim Birtch).  You've shown that I'm not wierd, sick, deviant or deranged (or at least that I'm not the only one ::) ;D :P).  I've learnt an enormous amount about the nature of bufness; some bad (steroids, poor prize money for the competitors) but much good (the passion, strength, pride, detrmination and the sheer breathtaking glory of a woman whose body swells with magnificent power and energy).  I've gasped, laughed, cried, onanised and drooled thanks to reading your posts and learning. 

I've made many online friends here, too many to name.  I suppose my kindred spirits are Mimi, Fett, AlexG and stmercy, as I share with them gasping awe, off-the-wall humour, admiration of the muscular female form and pro-feminist views respectively.  Thanks of course must also go to the Mighty Lingster for maintaining a superb site (and I will convert him to the Democratic/Labour way of thinking in the end  ;D ;)) and to our many writers and artists (special mention to Sir DCM whose vision of loveliness, namely Tetuko Breckenridge, has kept me in a virtual sense, company during lazy summer days and cold winter nights) for sharing their special talents during the past year, and previously. 

Merry Christmas from rural East Anglia, happy New Year, and here's to a second year of Amaz0ns! 8)
