Dear Friends,

Booze is good in every form. (Maybe not sake, LOL). Don't care what the coc ( or the bible) says about anything.

Dear Friends, Meanness in the coc is a deep pool indeed. A bottomless pool. I was an Elders kid. From them I learned bigotry, homophobia, and general hatred of everyone but those in coc.

Hi, I left the coc back when I was 18. I flopped around like a fish out of water. I knew nothing about sexuality, or how to make friends, I was a child in many ways. All I knew was that I wanted out. The emotional baggage that I left with is still with me. I fight against it everyday. I am 62 years ...
