Good friends are the best ESP forever friends-I have best friends from all my life no matter where I have moved I notice that the blogs that have those things where one must check signs etc have less replies-sometimes one has to do three or more...just wondering

This is such fun. And yes, you are so right about old friends. They know things about us no one else does. GOod and bad. And they are unconditional.
