While tooling around the net I found a site called TBD.com, essentially a 40s + social website. Now, I've never had much time for social drivel, but I must say that I have found a bunch of incredibly wonderful people. Everybody has their problems, that's life, but even amidst trials great and small the folks I have met there don't hesitate with their support, advice, and concern for another. Even if you're a newbie!
If you want to meet some really cool, genuine (and fun) people, go to www.tbd.com and join up!
