I would be a terrible host...I think the lounge should be a free-for-all and the rest of the site, not much different.

Statement of Purpose button. Most alerts in the lounge are from people who posted in the wrong forum or people who post serious stuff. I think you would be great at it. You are here for a year in a few days so you are eligible to serve. If you are interested I say do it. Try to sign up today or wait the few days till you are here for the year.

I'm so glad you were able to do that.

It really opens up DU for you.

Mom is slowly getting better. She still has to absorb all the blood she bled internally, and it her stomach is still upset. No more procedures for awhile.

Things will be better in 2 or 3 months. I've got good professionals trying to straighten out my problems as quickly as possible. I haven't done anything wrong but my rescue team will need to cross all the Ts and dot all of the Is ... this time.

You will be a great Lounge host. I'm not even religious, but I enjoy your posts in the Religion Forum! I wonder how you keep a sense of humor and cool head when you read replies by some of those Negative Nellies!
