I _heart_ EutyBabe. I wish I knew him better, especially since he’s taken time out of his busy schedule to send me supportive emails in the past. He’s one of the people I’ve wanted to start a dialogue with, but I’ve been too caught up in my own mishmash of stuff to devote enough time to that cause. I’m hoping that will rectify itself in the future.
And I really, really, really miss him in this forum.

I don’t think there is anybody that doesn’t adore Euty.
I know I do.

I really dig **Euty** as well, even if he shuns my fumbling emails, inviting him out for caw-fee (Rhode Islander for “coffee”) or an adult beverage. 😉
Hang in there, babe. You’ve got a lot of people here who care a lot about you. Use them.

I’m sorely tempted to read Café Society threads solely because Euty’s a mod there and I’d bet he posts there a lot.
Only problem is that the threads there usually don’t interest me, and unlike GD and IMHO, there isn’t anything I know enough about (unless there’s a good Will Hunting question in there or something) to say anything meaningful there.
_I have a dream . . . that he is me . . . and that’s the kind of guy I’d like to be . . . [dum dum dum dum dum]_

I always seem to come in late for everything, so I just have one thing to add: um…me too. I feel a little presumptuous saying so, since I don’t know him at all aside from his posts (and the aforementioned Very Good Deed), but I’ve been a member of the Euty fan club for some time now.
Now I’m off to put “What’s a Euty?” in all my sigs on other boards and in email (I’m late for that one too).

**Euty** seems like an incredibly patient individual, given the circumstances.
Bravo **Euty** , bravo.

**Euty** is pretty dang great. Plus, he knows his Clash, so that about puts my admiration into the stratosphere. 🙂

Agreed. Another [sub]very[/sub] Secret Admirer checking in. Like **InternetLegend** said I feel a little presumptuous adding to this thread but I had to because he seems like such a sweet guy.

I would just like to add that the experiment into the relative open-combat strengths of M & Ms and Skittles (find it [here](http://www.teemings.com/euty/writings/fight.html)) gave me a serious giggle.
The followup report (find a link on the above page) is even better.

No need to feel presumptuous - Secret Admirers of Eutychus would never presume that you’re presumptuous! We welcome all who revere and esteem our kindly moderator. We discourage blatant public gushing and sucking up, which is why we’re doing this thread secretly. Far be it from us to embarrass dear **Euty** with a wild orgiastic display…
So let’s keep the level of the polite golf clapping a bit on the pianissimo side, OK?

What I like about Euty is that he’s too much of a gentlemen to come in here and tell us that he is one of the people who “viewed” the thread.

Well, yeah there’s that. There’s also the fact that I have absolutely no idea how to respond to all of this.

Well, dang, who told?!?!?
**Euty** - no response is necessary - just bask in the glow.

Wouldn’t be the first time I’ve been called a basker.
Or something like that.
