Let’s not forget about Stephi and ladydisco who are people whose company I enjoy 
Oh… and that CuriousCanuck is damn sexy 
I find Giraffe’s leering in flirt threads hilarious.
Exgineer is kind and encouraging to newbies and lurkers.
Rue is wonderfully random.
Two I’ve noticed as of late that can both superbly present a compelling, sensical arguement are DanielWithrow and Derleth.
And ditto on most everyone else mentioned above.
BTW, I miss DuckDuckGoose.
Manda JO has this tendency of displaying so much good sense that it’s downright spooky.
Dang it, I got the numbers wrong! Sorry scoutybaby.
Aww, sweetie! We really need to meet one of these days. I have a feeling that you are my West Coast doppelganger.
Big skanky hugs, girlfriend!
Well, I always get a laugh from reading stories by Rue de Day or Scylla.
Exgineer always seems to try really hard to be fair to people with low post counts, which I think is great.
Qadgop the Mercotan looks like he has a good set of facts available on a couple of subjects, and tells them in an entertaining way. Ditto for Badge about police topics.
Oh, and I don’t want to forget scout1222, for sending me those caramel M&Ms to surprise my wife with. Thanks again.
Delphica, I think I love you.
A big, hearty DITTO on the compliments to **Daniel Withrow, scout1222, GfH, tomndebb, MandaJO, Homebrew (back off, swampbear, he’s mine–though if you have a penis, I may lose out on this one), Cranky, Giraffe, Fenris, Zev Steinhart, Biggirl, lieu, Eve, **and **iampunha . . . **
(Jeez, I feel like I’m givin’ an OSCAR speech . . . )
. . . and a big, wet one for SkipMagic, who has a six-pack like you would not believe, and makes a killer grilled cheese sandwich. 
Polycarp inspires me as a person not afraid to express his beliefs on a largely skeptical message board, and earning the respect of those with the most opposing of view points.
I know my junior high English teacher would make me try to diagram that sentence as punishment for such a poorly constructed clause, but he’s not here.
CrankyAsAnOldMan has been practically a surrogate mom to me, except far too young and not nearly cranky enough to actually be my mom.
bristlesage and I were seperated at birth. Actually, I’m not sure if that’s really a compliment to her. Anyway. Watch for the insanity - coming soon to a ChiDope near you.
manhattan is the most generous person I know. Period. I am so happy I know him.
Zappo, Anahita, and SueDuhnym are all unbelievably thoughtful people.
When I grow up, I’m going to be exactly like tomndeb, but more female.
You lose! You can flirt with Homebrew all you like dear. I’ll be the one to drag him back to my cave at night.
[sub]geez, if and when Homebrewsees this, hope he doesn’t run away.[/sub]
*Cranky I would pursue like the coyote chases the Roadrunner if both she and I were single. (Apologies to Mr. Cranky.)
Oh, swampy, I won’t run and you won’t have to drag me to your cave, just point me in the direction I need to go.
Sorry, auntie em. You know I love you - just not in that way.
C’est la vie . . . lunch and the details afterwards, then?
Well, OK, maybe not ALL of the details . . .
Lunch, details, maybe some shopping then I’ll point Homebrew back to the cave.
Deal. I’ll even give him cabfare back there.
<spoken directly to beegirl13’s breasts>
Now you’ve done it. This is all the encouragement I need to launch my leering crusade. You can sleep happy in the knowledge that you have helped make it possible.
::licks lips::
::stares::
Oh yeah.

Lamia seems like a fascinating person, and I always enjoy reading her posts.
glarGH writes the best rants ever.
I also appreciate the scolarship of Darwin’s Finch and Ben in evolution threads.
I enjoy the input in religious discussions by Polycarp and Libertarian.
I appreciate the placid tone and wide range of knowledge in the posts of tomndebb.
I appreciate DDG’s “coffee.”
I think that vanilla is one of the nicest fundies around.
As wacky as he can be, for some reason I like lekatt.
There are too many others to mention.
