    If so, then here we go. I would like to wish each and every member of WGT, as well as the entire WGT staff, a very safe and happy holiday season. Regardless of where you are from, or what your beliefs are, this is a time of year to reflect and give thanks for many things. My number one, is the fact that I am almost 60 yrs old and still have both of my parents. That is a blessing, no matter what you believe in. To have a happy family, grown children, grand children, to still be working and not having bill collectors calling you. Every day is a challenge, accept it, do your best. Anything less than 100% on your part, is no ones fault but your own. This little game has given me fits and frustrations. The most important part of this game is as follows. I won't mention names for fear of getting in a pickle. Look at my friends list, I would have never had the pleasure of meeting these individuals, if it wasn't for this crazy, addicting, expensive game. I am thankful for many things in my life, proud of some of  my accomplishments and not so proud of others. Barring a miracle, I will not leave this earth a wealthy man, but I am a firm believer, that it isn't what I take with me, but what I have left behind. I have a wonderful family, that I love and am proud of. If that is the best I have done, then so be it. May everyone enjoy this time and, please, take a moment, give a smile, a handshake, a pat on the back, or a big hug and kiss. I still hug my dad every time I see him, and old WWII Marine Gunnies don't usually take to kindly to another man hugging them. He does when it's me. Great Holidays everyone, may you be safe.
