Thanks Gabegirl!! GREAT job!

I've been a lurker here for awhile and I love reading all the "nice" posts about D/S. Unlike other message boards where there's a lot of negativity, bashing, etc. of D/S and especially of Shannon, this site makes me "smile." I've never joined something like this before so I'm asking if I could join?

I wasn't a big fan of DWTS until season 6 when D/S just took my breath away? Thank you to the producers of DWTS of bringing/pairing them together because to me "it's a match made in heaven." Also, thank you to the person/persons who started this D/S site.

Okay, I'll stop for now because I'm getting emotional.
