Leaving you all for good.

Please, do not attempt to contact me in any way. Ever again. Gerry Cabalo has added the last straw to my association with anyone here on Club Adventist.

YOU ALL WIN!

Bye.

YOU ALL WIN!

Bye.

No I'd say we all lose?????

Cricket, I am unaware of what I may have said to offend you! Whatever statement I may have said that offended you, I sincerely ask your forgiveness. I can with a clear conscience say that I try to avoid saying anything that may suggest malice. Obviously, I failed. I am truly sorry.

PS

I also want to apologize to others that I may have offended over the years.

[doug yowell]

What happened??

[Nan]

Not sure if you will be reading this Cricket, as you are no longer on

FB - or my list at least - and you are not accepting PM's....just

saying that I have valued your input and view point over the years.

Blessings for your future.

Wow! Cricket has been here for many years, although she changed her username a couple of times. She use to be on my MSN Messenger and we would chat there but that was many years ago. Maybe she will feel better and come back later. Some folks need a break.

Not sure what happened but I agree, we all loose. I do hope you change your mind and come back.

Perhaps this post in Theological Townhall, thread Meat At Potlucks could be the culprit.

Just guessin'...

I'd have to see it to believe that he is REALLY allergic to all the above.

And I fully concur with all the previous posters:

Please don't go cricket. We would miss you way too much.

You contribute just so, so much.

That was in no way a suggestion that Cricket is a liar or intended to offend. The diagnosis of food allergies happens to be not an easy one to make. As a physician, I have seen patients who test positive on skin testing against certain foods and yet are able to eat them without an allergic reaction. The converse is also true, i.e. a person may have a negative skin test to a certain food, and yet may have problems when the food is eaten. I have a sister who also has this problem.

[olger]

I am offended when people leave for good.

[Planey]

Gerry, I agree with you.

I thought your reply was reasonable, from an experienced physician.

But I couldn't find anything else recent.

Who knows? Only cricket I think.

I hope she comes back.

My goodness - if I got offended every time someone said something offensive to me - I would be in sad shape. Perhaps I am already in sad shape - but that would have made me worse.

Personally - I echo the previous posts.

We are all a bunch of misfits. (Hope that doesn't offend anyone) But that is the beauty of it. Not one is the same. And just look at all the different aspects that we can glean from here.

>>We are all a bunch of misfits.<<

Hey!--bite yor' tongue young fellow. Mebbe y'all, but not m'all. Just because I'm weird, scrued-up, think that I'm the only one here who has a handle on truths, etc - does not a misfit make me.

Anyways..., hope that after sharing a very large rib-eye steak dinner with her husband and feeling belly-rubbing satiated and mellow, cricket will rejoin all you misfits and me,

as I value her input. :)

[LifeHiscost]

Anytime one leaves, but most of all a member of the family of God and a part of the body of Christ, whether it is a logical or illogical reason, we all lose.

I personally am going to miss you Cricket, and whether you choose to come back to the forum to spend time with those who love you, even if their lack sometimes makes it difficult to discern, may I suggest that I will pray that we can someday, here or in the kingdom, be able to talk over the reason you made the decision to leave.

God blesses!
