Thanks, Marie!

There's an envelope inside with a letter which says:

Quote:
Dear Lord Gaby:

I just wanted to thank you for being such a stand-up guy, and a real pal. I love your posts, and no matter what anyone says, you are a great guy! I'm glad to call you a friend, and I would love to meet you someday. Enclosed I send you a ************************. I have also sent you some pictures, I hope you like them! Sorry for the rushed letter, but it is 12:26 AM! :)

From a Friend
Kyle

I think it is a Skagen band... I bought it for my Mido... but the Mido looks better on a black leather... Thanks, Bro!

Wow, you two guys are great friends and to imagine it all happened here on TRF.. Many of us adults who think the youth of today is all screwed up, spoiled, without respect should look no further than here on TRF. Many and I mean many of us here should take a lesson from these two guys. No, I don't mean go out and send stuff to one another, that's not what this signifies, it means they have a bond that was formed right here. Thanks guys for restoring my faith in the younger generation.
