    I first picked up SIP about a month ago. I have been interested in reading it for a while but didn't want to until I could start from the beginning, so with my tax return this year, I planned to buy the books and start out.

    The comic shop I frequent here in columbus (The Laughing Ogre) recommended starting with High School (even though its book six) I quickly devoured it and was back for more. Over the last three weeks I have feverishly read through all nine books and I'm left with the flooring revelation that I am caught up, and I am made to wait a month for more of the story of Francine, David, and Katchoo. This is where withdrawl sets in, but on a bonus point I can now come and join the other addicts on the board without being totally lost on where the story is.

    Terry you have created what is for me the comic eqivilent of Anne Of Green Gables the movie. A bunch of peoples eyes just got wider and they looked at the screen WHAT!?. Anne of Green Gables Touched me, No matter how down I am or lost I can pop in Anne of Green Gables and within an 20 minutes or so I feel great, I'm smiling giggling, I'm alive again, its better than any drug on the market. (yes I've read the books as well, I like the movie more even)

    SIP is a dream to read, once I go into it, the only part I hate is coming back out. I close the back cover and I'm startled that there are no more pages to turn.

    Thank you for the new Drug Terry, my tape of Anne is wearing out.

    Isn't it amazing like most of us refers to SIP as a 'drug'?
    So, man, what's this, our self-help forum?! wink

    Hey there, welcome to the gang! Here's the secret code. *hands him a piece of paper*

    Uh, you have to eat that after you read it...It will get you in the clubhouse...

    Londo: Something my father said. He was old, very old at the time. I went into his room, and he was sitting alone in the dark, crying. So I asked him what was wrong, and he said, "My shoes are too tight, but it doesn't matter, because I have forgotten how to dance." I never understood what that meant until now. My shoes are too tight, and I have forgotten how to dance. - Babylon 5
