Imagine my surprise when the telephone rang this evening, and on the other end was ... "Frank from Polish Culture forum" !!!
We had a long chat. He said he is doing very well, and no one is more astonished than he. He had been to "the edge" and then 3 weeks ago, everything turned around, and he became well again - after 6 months. He hopes to have a new computer hooked up soon and will be back to join us here.
He asked about several of you - especially Jaga, Bob S., "skeeter" (you know who you are), Leslie, Carl, and even Eric.
I tried to explain about rdywenur "jumping ship" but you will have to do that yourself, I could not manage to get your nicknames right ( <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> )
He is looking forward to finding out who the new trouble-makers are ... that's our Frank <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> ... and meeting all the people form Poland who have joined in the past few months.
So - y'all are warned -- he'll be back!

PS. I forgot - Frank also asked about Brunnen - has anyone heard from him?
So very glad to hear that Frank is doing well and I believe that time will help to improve his situation. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Nancy,
the news about Frank are just amazing. You are also great and you sent him flowers the other day and.... this also helped Frank. I am anxious to see him back!!!

Jaga,
I am glad that Franek has bounced back. Looking forward to seeing him here on the forum.

Oooops I forgot my sign in is rdywneur on MSN but my name got changed somehow and the other board I am imenigma2u. I posted your message there so the others can look forward to Franeks' return. Great news Nancy. Thank you. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Hi To All,
Well Franek is back. I want to take this opportunity
to thank every one for all the cards, flowers and prayers. This is what makes Bella Forum a great thing to belong to. It is all of the wonderful people. I wish I could thank each one of you personally but that is not possible. So, I am using this time to reach out to all of you.
Im looking forward to getting back into the swiwng of things and chatting with all of my old friends as well as meeting and getting to know all of the new members. I have been gone for a while and I understand that Bella has grown. I may not be back as soon as I would like as we are having some difficulty getting the computer set up. So bear with me. I shall return.
P.S. Nancy....Hope I did not get you into any hot water the other night. I do not need your husband traveling to Florida to break my face.
Please make note: My new e-mail address is
franek80@comcast.netI think....ha ha ha
Later,
Frank

Franek/Frank
Welcome. Welcome. Welcome back. I have missed you and all the stories you used to tell me - and some of those Polish proverbs!!!! I do hope your life does flow as well as the Wisla does to Gdansk! (Niech mu zycie slodko plynie, jak Wisla do Gdanska ). You have been through hell by the sound of it, but I don't think anyone ever doubted that someone of your character and being would not bounce back. Every, every best wish = Pozdrawiam serdecznie bardzo!
Leslie
RDYWENER For the life of me,as hard as I try this name is not familiar to me.. You had to have a different name in Polish American Dorum..I have a strong feeling that you are ANIA,,only she would be capable to come up with a name like RDYWENER..i HOPE THAT THIS IS tRUE,FOR YOU BO and I had a lot of fun. You will remember me as Wesooly Franek. Nancy told me that things are pretty dead in that forum..No excitement.. HAH, wait until I get back
Frank
rdy's name at MSN: imenigma2u
did you get my email?
Hello Frank,
I must have joined forum when you were gone but your name was poping up here now and then. It's better to read You instead of ...about you. I figure you are getting better so stay healthy and welcome back.
Nancy,
No I did not receive your email on either address. The reason is, as I said earlier, this computer is not completely set up yet. Therefore, I do not have access to e-mail yet. You can send email to Judy at
nunczka@sunline.net for the time being.
The name that you mentioned...RDY ????? sounded like it may havebeen Anna. From the other issue and name, I recall it being the name enigma and he is the guy from upstate New YOrk. He ws a real fun guy and blended well with us.
P.S. I am still trying to get over the sound of your voice over the phone.j You sound like a 25 year old. If the rest of you is as sweet as your voice....then GRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
Franek
God Bless you Franek. See prayers and friiends do make miracles. Welcome back. We sure missed you.
Basia
Welcome back Franek. So good to see your posts again. I am not familiar with them on this board but if they are as fun to read as the other board than this board will be hopping too. I knew you would be back soon as it is hard to keep a good man down. Best Wishes to you.....aka imenigma2u <img src="/images/graemlins/heart.gif" alt="" />
PS..its pronounced ready when you are.....long story short. It came from waitng for my old PC to boot up. Oh and the last time I checked I was a girl so watch it there you'll get yourself into hot water. LOL You can call me Christiana or Chris <img src="/images/graemlins/kiss.gif" alt="" />
Hi Frank,
I am a newbie member and have not had the pleasure of meeting you untill now. You know,,,you are some thing special with the folks here, I have heard such good things about you.
Looking foward to meeting you when time allows.
Charles
Frank. So glad to have you back and looking forward to some of your postings to the forum. After all you have been through you deserve a new computer, this time make sure it has a back-up source of power. When I want a new toy, I tell my wife "well, I could have spent that money going to bars and chasing women" <img src="/images/graemlins/angel.gif" alt="" /> that sometimes works. Lots of new faces and new names in the forum and I know you will like them all. We have had no big troublemakers here lately but I am sure that all the viruses that are being talked about are more alien invaders from the "Undiscovered Planet" <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />. We all await your post and our prayers are for your recovery.
Nancy,
P.S. I am still trying to get over the sound of your voice over the phone.j You sound like a 25 year old. If the rest of you is as sweet as your voice....then GRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
LOL - it's Frank! <img src="/images/graemlins/devil.gif" alt="" /> He's back!
You better check in at MSN - Bo just found out about this forum, thanks to rdywenur, and then rdy called you her ... well, just go over there. tee hee. rdy is not a guy, for heaven's sake. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Chris - just paying you back for blowing my cover at msn- lol - now we are even <img src="/images/graemlins/angel.gif" alt="" />
PS. I am neither 25 nor sweet ... lol, but thanks.
Ready when u r
Chris, I am totally confused as to who you are. Are you from upstate NY? If so and you were known as Enigma.. I remember you as being a male. Hmmmm!Clear this up for me.
I remember KASIA, ALICIA,.ANIA, BO, MIKE, the rest escape my memory..In any event I am glad to see you in JAGA,s Forum..There are a bunch of great people in here.Have you heard anything from Josianka?
Frank,
Glad to meet you finally! I am looking forward to hearing from you on the board.
Holly
Nancy
What is the url for Polish American Forum..I just cant get in
Franek,
Welcome back my friend. A happy veterans day to you.
It has been too long since we heard from you.
Any questions on PC's email me and I'll try to answere.
Used to build them and sell them.
Nancy
What is the url for Polish American Forum..I just cant get in
http://groups.msn.com/PolishAmerican/I think -- sometimes I cannot get in either.
Welcome back, Frank. Hope you are well. Your friend: Carl
Geeze, what a great welcome back..I want to thank all of you for the kind words. Especially the new meembers that do not know me. This is what makes this a great forum. LOL,to the new members,do not believe all the nice things that were said about me. I just happen to be the oldest guy in here and the least educated. I just post messages from 1925, I talk about things the way they were when our Parents first came over from Poland.
There are people in here who never learned the Polish language and are reaching out for help. This forum has helped some of them,especially Nancy. Just for you Niech mu gwiazdka pomyslnosci, nigdy nie zagasnie A kto znami nie wypije, niech mu poirun trasznie Let the star that always shines above you, never be extinguished And he thaat refuses to drink with us, may he be struck by lightning
Franek....I guess I am truly then an enigma2u...LOL. I was fairly new to the other board too maybe about a year. I only know Mike (from UK) and Bo and of course yourself. The other posters you mention only post occcasionally so I am not familiar with them. For some reason I too have a hard time getting in to that site no matter which way I try. I belong to another board on MSN and have never had a problem with getting on. Matter of fact my saved bookmark always gets me right in but not on the Polish/American site. Yes I am from Upstate NY. (not to worry we can start fresh)
Nancy....I am sorry to have blown your cover. I guess I got caught up in the moment of the good news and had to share with the others. I am sooooooooo sorry. Hoping you will for give me.
Hi Frank!
Welcome back from the north end! Glad to hear you are up & about & back to join us.
Kai
Chris
HAH! I knew that that was you, But it came as a surprise to learn that you were a girl. But thats good, I always liked girls better anyhow.
Chris I understand what you are going through with MSN
it was a nightmare but I finally got in. Now that I am in I bookmarked it.. Now its easy.Try to get back in.. Franek is on a roll again.I posted a message to Ania. I am back to my stud personality again..But Ania is a lot of fun.
Your Stud muffin Franek
Frank,
it is so wonderful really to see you back! I am so glad, it feels so good! The only problem, we are right now in the transition to a different forum. Hope you can join us there!!!
Hope that this link works:

Jaga
Nancy informed me of the new sites. Not to worry you couldnt get rid of me even if you wanted to..Besides Nancy told me that if I did not follow,that she would scratch ny eyes out.
Jaga I want to thank you for the beautiful flowers that you sent me.At that time I was at a low point.. It fellt gfood to that some one cares.Thats what helped me to pull through
Frank,
the flowers was Nancy's idea. She did it all, I just sent a couple of postcards in the name of me, Leslie and some other visitors, as all prayed for you here really!!!
