Mouth Shut:
Mr. Faisal Farooqui I have no idea what was in your mind when you started MouthShut. I do know that it is one of the best places for people from around the World to share their views on many topics.
I started writing here over 5 years ago, (January 4, 2002), after ppotter invited my cousin and I to write on this site. Pam and my cousin don't write here any more and I miss them.
I have watch the MouthShut site change and grown. Mr. Faroogui has received honors as a great Indian business man.
Thank You:
Thank you to the 830 members who added me to the circle of trust.
So many of the first people who trusted me have left and I miss them all.
I would like to mention Bibhuti Bhusan Mohanty, (PROFBBMOHANTY), who has been writing on MouthShut almost as long as I have. He began writing here a few weeks after I did. He still comes back and reads and writes occasionally.
I would like to give a'shout, out to Pete, (Priya). She's from Newfoundland and is the only member who has phoned me long distance. She drops in to read some reviews from time to time. I wish she would write more but taking care of a family and going to University is quite difficult.
I miss Spooks from Australia and ThumbInMouth, (Prakash Gosavi), from Mumbai. They both made me laugh a lot.
You Can't Make Everyone Happy:
I am sorry that 20 members felt they could not trust me. One of them comes from Hades and a few are the same person. I hope they forgive for what I did to them because if they don't it will hurt them more than me.
The Good News:
When you make friends here you make them for life. I still hear from my cousin, (Sharon), meleah, (Leah has a candle shop on eBay, tabyorky, (Tracy and her husband have a son and are expecting a baby in the fall) and abababbey, (Abbey lives in Florida and has lived through two hurricanes. Her daughter was in New Orleans when the big one hit there).
I believe that 2atbirthusa, (Glenda Crane), who is a man has died. G-d bless his soul.
When I Started To Write Here:
A wise man told me, "An opinion can be short if you understand, (what the writer who posted it), the meaning they are trying to get across."
That is why some times I don't rate the same way as many of you.
Contests:
I have enter every contest and never have won one. I make sure I congratulate the people who do.
You:
You have supported me through illness and death. You have forgiven me for not rating your reviews during those difficult times or some time not leaving a comment. Thank you so much. This shows you the true meaning of MouthShut.
India:
I wish I had visited this wonderful country and been able to see the fabulous things that many of you have seen.
My One Wish:
Mr. Farooqui I wish one day you would allow us to redeem our points like you did when I first joined here!
The Wine:
I am going to open the White Zinfandel tonight because my husband and I are celebrating our 51st wedding anniversary.
To all of you who have read this I hope you enjoy MouthShut as much as I have I hope you will never leave.
Thank you for reading this review.
