Well, it's time for turkey again.

Thanksgiving is always a time when I pause to reflect on the past year's events and accomplishments, not the least of which have occurred within the comfy confines of the BEArchive.

With your permission, I'd like to distribute thanks where thanks is due for the fun I've had with this site.

First and foremost, I'm thankful for the response you fine citizens made to my impassioned plea for assistance for my flood-ravaged neighbors here in "Nawth Kalina". It has been (and continues to be) a long road back for these folks. Your help and contributions have made their recovery that much easier. Thanks, folks. My neighbors couldn't have done it without you!

Second, my thanks to the hard-working virtuosi of the BEA's own "Morpher's Guild". The undraped human female form is one of God's greatest gifts to mankind. It takes great skill and talent, (not to mention a hefty dose of high-minded presumption!) to "improve" upon the Almighty's perfection, and yet these people seem to accomplish that on an almost daily basis. Well done!

Third, my thanks to those incredibly patient souls who monitor the ever-growing Tower of Babel that is the BEA Forum.I've known chat board proctors that got paid big bucks who didn't do half as good a job as the Forum's moderators do for free. Talk about a labor of love!

Fourth, a special thanks to Alicia, one of the loveliest ladies I've ever met here at the BEArchive. It's not every woman who has the self-confidence to give her body to the ministrations of the "Morpher's Guild", or as gracious when they publish their creations in the Gallery. You showed us all that nothing succeeds like perseverance. Thank you, darlin', and have Felix give y'all a big smooch and a squeeze from me!

Fifth, my thanks to my fellow collaborators here at BEhavior for your patience, help and good humor in getting me through a very trying year.

Sixth, and finally, I give thanks for stumbling onto this site about two years ago, and finding a group of friendly people "of like interests". Men and women who, like me, thank Heaven that God not only turns little girls into big girls, but that God also makes some big girls even bigger!

Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!

Court's adjourned.
