"Sam" is from a family of "Sliders." These are creatures that "slide" into and out of your life, at unexpected and expected times. You certainly can't always predict that a slider will visit you -- but then, if one slider does visit you it seems likely that you can help him decide WHERE and WHEN he will next SLIDE!
Sam started life in the mind of Harry Thomas who chose Sam's first sliding journey -- into the arms of Bonnie Troescher as a very welcome arrival, late like sliders are often late, for Bonnie's birthday.
Here is Bonnie with Sam. You'll find you become very attached to Sam, when and as he arrives in your life. But, when you let him slide to another, all that joy for you remains with you. As is the custom, Bonnie counseled If all of those receiving Sam into their arms and lives keep in touch with the webmaster here, the tale will continue -- forever.

There can even be MORE sliders -- of the same breed. Perhaps you know of some who need recognition. |
Sam
is a friendly and helpful slider. He stays with you, brings
joy, and then increases you joy by taking a copy of your joy to
another -- to share that. In this way the more journeys Sam
has traveled, the more joy he arrives with -- the more honored you
can be at his visit.
Bonnie
was delighted to meet Sam, immediately gave him a place of honor and
glanced lovingly at him often. Sam arrived at a time when
Bonnie had no live dog in
her
life, so Sam the Slider was particularly welcome.

wide selection of friends into whose arms he might send Sam!
