Thanks **Mockingbird** , but I meant People Magazine…🙂 ---

I don’t think Eve and I have ever spoken, but I always find myself drawn to her posts because she gives such good advice. When I found out she was a New Yorker, that clinched it. I pictured her as one of those Upper East Side women who are always perfectly polished and put together, and who spends her evenings having dinner, wine, and coffee with friends in cafes discussing arts, music, and film. If I’d stayed in NYC, Eve was the kind of woman I’d want to be. And after seeing a picture of her, I still don’t think I’m very far off from the above description. Ava ---

Thanks to **Eve** , I learned about online photo archives like Corbis and Hulton Getty, enabling me to build my collection of pictures of obscure European royals. Go **Eve**! Plus, she got to meet Audrey Hepburn’s ex-fiance-how cool is that? **Eve** ’s the bee’s knees. ---

What to say? What to say? Eve is the fairy tale princess. She embodies class without elitism. She is proof(if proof were needed) that brains are sexy. I am, however, deeply upset that the Golden Images link on her site does not lead to more images of Eve.:mad: ---

I was very, _very_ upset for about two days. Then I got over it. If someone offered me a glass of 97% Dom Perignon 1953 and 3% cyanide, I’d take my chances and drink it. Sometimes it’s hard to spit out the cyanide, though. ---

Stick with the champagne, classy lady. Leave the cyanide to your…friends. ---

**Eve** , I am SO glad and relieved you’re back. I don’t think we’ve ever interacted here, but I’m just yet another person who never fails to read your OPs for their sheer entertainment. You are a delight. ---

I feel like we clapped our hands hard enough, and Tinkerbell came back to life. Don’t you scare us like that again, Eve! We love you. ---

I finally found this thread (I usually don’t read MPSIMS, but someone mentioned an Eve appreciation thread elsewhere and didn’t provide a link…grrr…), and before I managed to read all the posts singing **Eve** ’s praises she’s back! I’m so happy! Literally just minutes ago I was talking to a friend in the hallway and told her all about **Eve** and how upset I was thinking that she might have left the SDMB forever. I returned to my computer only to find that the lady **Eve** has returned to us once more. Huzzah! **Eve** , you’re the greatest. I have nothing but the highest regard for you, and I hope that someday I will have the opportunity to meet you so I can tell you so in person. ---

I gotta say, **Eve** , I’m amazed by and jealous of your grace and dignity. I was shocked literally to tears when I realized just what was said to you, and when I read your response I thought “Holy crap … if someone insulted me like that there’s no way I’d have the strength to reply so calmly.” You don’t know me or anything, but I’m really glad you’re back. If you’re ever in my neck of the woods, I’ll take ya out for coffee (probably with a stack of books, a pen, and a pleadingly autograph-hunting look 🙂 ). ---

Thanks for coming back **Eve** , you are not only loved but you are downright needed around here, and that has nothing to do with what body you were born into in my mind, just everything to do with who you are and what you give to this community. ---

I’m starting to get a little bit concerned. As near as I can tell, **Eve** hasn’t posted since Thursday night in that thread in which she took undeserved abuse. If it turns out that the likes of **Jersey\_Diamond** , **Joe Cool** , and **His4Ever** keep posting here and **Eve** doesn’t, I am going to be truly disappointed. If that turns out to be representative of the collective prefence of board members, I’ll stop visiting altogether. ---
