"Hello, I just joined this. Just saying Hi!"

"Chris, thanks for checking in.  I hope you're having a wonderful holiday.  Enjoy Vesuvius. "

"Joan, you mentioned awhile back about liking to eat a nice steak with some red wine.  The Argentinians have a wonderfully simple accompaniment to their steaks:  Chimichurri Sauce It has lots of chopped parsley and garlic!!"

"I'm with you Chrissie, Dallas, and Daniel.  If an anti-gay supporter wants to be a selfless martyr and end their life over two people loving each other, then let them kindly proceed, as long as they don't take any innocent victims…"

"A real scary video, Joan, but my nerves are made of straw. Glad the surgery went well! Yes, parsley fights inflammations, very good for you! What a good picture of Ian, you look well! And this is to wave goodbye as I'm off to the Vesuvius…"

"Thanks for your support friends on Atheist Nexus. I am feeling just fine and in good spirits. I feel well supported and encouraged. I have a cloud of supporters."
