Tygr - For picking me up when I’ve been down.
dantheman - For being a friend, indeed.
Watermelon Man - For e-mails that make me smile.
TPWombat - For wanting to be the first member of my harem, and making me mile with your posts.
and Lindyhopper - For the missed flirt opportunities, in threads innumerable, and for those that we haven’t missed, that have given me something to remember.
Whoops, forgot a couple of hugs:
One for SpiderWoman and one for TroubleAgain, a couple of classy ladies.
sigh…I suppose I could blame my forgetfulness on being sick, but I won’t.
More hugs to fierra and Mauvaise.
Hmm…I know I’m forgetting more, but hopefully I won’t remember them right after posting this post.
Spider Woman, thank you for your kindness and compassion! I’m not sure how serious the threat I spoke of was, but in any event, you have once again shown your classiness and selflessness to the SDMB. What a wonderful person you are, and it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance! It’s people like you that give me hope for humanity.
For you, Spider Woman:
“What a piece of work is a man!
how noble in reason!
how infinite in faculty!
in form and moving
how express and admirable!
in action how like an angel!
in apprehension how like a god” 
–Hamlet, Act 2, Scene ii
TroubleAgain, my dear friend:
“For your great graces
Heap’d upon me, poor undeserver,
I Can nothing render
but allegiant thanks,
My prayers to heaven for you,
my loyalty, Which ever has
and ever shall be growing,
Till death, that winter, kill it”
–King Henry VIII, Act 3, Scene ii
Bless you both!!
What the hell?
Nobody loves me? 
That’s OK. Since I love hugs so much, I’ll just give everyone here on the boards a hug. God knows some of you need one, and those that say they don’t are the first ones in line.
[sub] That means you, Jill…[/sub]

D’oh, how could I forget my buddy silent_rob??? Hugs to you, dear fellow!
Oh, and DRY, what lovely quotes you chose for me and for SpiderWoman. Thanks so much! (I just love a man that quotes Shakespeare…)
Thank you, Spider Woman. hug back to the lady with the legs
Guess I’ll go ahead and admit that you were at the top of the list of Dopers I didn’t mention because I’m bashful about hugging those I’ve not interacted with enough.
And on the off chance that two or three of you might wonder if you are on that list, you are. So consider yourself mentally hugged.
Airman Doors, you don’t need to troll for hugs, you just need to remind us how much we wuv you!
hug for Ariman Doors, USAF
Airman Doors, I haven’t interacted much with you, but I’ll hug you anyway, just because! ----> {{{{{{{{{{Airman Doors}}}}}}}}}}}}
The city where he lives had severe weather. I hear on the radio this morning that the power is back on (which may be why he was unable to answer imthjckaz’s e-mail before that).
I hope you are okay!
More hugs to Scotti, who helped keep me sane last week… And to Medea’s Child, because it’s just not possible to hug her too much. (Well, I haven’t had that problem yet…)
Also, hugs to all the dopers who have not yet been hugged and felt left out. They are:
Adam
Adrian
Adrianna
Akira
Alan
Alana
Alice
Alysce

And now I present to you the graduating class of… Oops.
Yikes! How did I miss this thread? Where did it come from? Who are you people? Why are you here? What’s for lunch?
Is it steamy and sultry in here, or is it just you? I mean, sheesh, I’m being hugged (and punched) by hot women to the left and to the right.
Lessee…
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Medea’s}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Persephone}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{jarbaby}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{TruePisces}}}}}}}}}}}}}
Well! I squeezed you all so extra-special tight that I’m winded. Whew. Whew. Gasp, gasp. Ok.
And a relative newbie who’s doing very well here:
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{GingeroftheNorth}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
And how could I forget my good friend

Plus someone I have some newfound respect for (not that I didn’t respect her before, but now I admire her, too)

And finally, everyone who posted condolences to me in the thread I began way back in January about my dog being murdered by another dog:
{{{{{{{{{{{{{You guys rock}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
I think I’ll go back to bed. No wait; can’t. I’m at work.
Hugs are very personal,
Between two folks that care.
It’s a sign of great affection,
That should be witnessed everywhere.
Now some of you folks are hugging,
Its a wonderful thing to see.
Everyone is getting hugs,
Everyone but me. (Sniff)
Now no one really knows me,
Some don’t even know my name.
So I’ll give board a big “Group Hug”,
As the meaning is the same.
= )
[sub]Ok…Its sappy…but I killed a half hour in my day ;)[/sub]
Rehugging all of you that I hugged before, and one for mrblue92 'cause he obviously needs a Monday hug.
Returning the hugs for TroubleAgain…
Actually I’m feeling a little better now. I spent much of the morning considering the vacation to Europe I’ve been talking about–and writing e-mails to a travel agent.
Hugs back (and again) to mrblue92 because he is a sweetheart. And because he gives WONDERFUL hugs, and I always appreciate a man who gives good hugs.

Okies, new hugs.
A hug for GingerOfTheNorth, not only for being a deligtful person and a sweetie to boot, but for thanking nice people. (I try to encourage cool people. I like cool people.)
