Scare me? Never. You’ve written some of the nicest things I’ve read on this board. 
::smooch::
Awww. Thanks, Tygr. 
That’s the first thing today that’s made me smile. ::smooch::
Off to find more people under the mistletoe …
Dry, I am quite sorry to hear this. I always look forward to your posts; no one that I know quotes Shakespeare as well as you do. The variety and originality of your choices is wonderful. So if you’ll permit me -
“Thy lips, those kissing cherries, tempting grow!” - A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Act III, Scene 2
“By my troth, I kiss thee with a most constant heart.” - Henry IV Part 2, Act II, Scene 4
“Peace! I will stop your mouth.” - Much Ado About Nothing, Act V, Scene 4
And my favorite song, from my favorite play:
“What is love? 'tis not hereafter;
Present mirth hath present laughter;
What’s to come is still unsure:
In delay there lies no plenty;
Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty,
Youth’s a stuff will not endure.” - Twelfth Night, Act II, Scene 3
I hope all improves.
You forgot me. In fact, no one mentioned me until I mentioned myself. I see how it is…all I’m good for is getting naked. 
I’m a newbie and don’t know anybody yet, but these are the people I’ve really enjoyed so far (not that I haven’t enjoyed everyone… except maybe JDT…).

Smoooooches to:
**Coldfire
Gaudere
Esprix **& **matt_mcl **(are you two ever going to get together?)
**UncleBeer
Crunchy Frog **(will this work instead of biting?)
oldscratch
hypergirl
Silver Fire
And Tygr, may I tag along with you?
Well, if I’d waited till I knew people well before I started smooching, I’d never have ended up marrying Mr. Legend, so I’ll just wade right in and offer kisses to all takers. But I have to mention Tatertot by name, since she’s EVIL and I like that. And a hug goes out with the kiss to all those Dopers whose lives have been especially hard lately.
gives DRY a come hither motion to pull him away from his adoring fans
finds a quiet corner
plants a long, sweet kiss on the man with the Shakespeare
Okay, now off with you, I’m sure your harem calls.
Hey stargazer!
::smooch::
From one newbie to another. Welcome to the SDMB!
Right back at you mongrel_8. Maybe at Christmas, we can find some real mistletoe . . .
:: blushing :: Thank you wring. That’s very nice of you to say.

I heard the giutars and maracas… where is that villain… :: smooch ::
as for the rest of you…
:: smooches Chique… 2 or 3 times… :: for all the time I’ve been able to enjoy chatting with you, and also for the cookies
:: smooches Nymysys :: my first friend on the boards
:: smooches Medea’s Child :: for bringing me to the wonderful place, among other things…
:: smooches Scotticher :: for the advice, for the companionship, and for the sense that I’m not quite alone.
i may have forgotten some of you… i’m absent minded and in a hurry…
- I’ll be back…*
Whoah! I never thought I would get a smooch, and i get TWO!
So immediately I give muchas smooches to Serendipity because she’s as sweet as a peach smint, and Spider Woman because she didn’t forget me in her long, long list and because she appreciates William (my millipede) when few other people do.
Um…other than that i am kinda shy.
Hello?
I dig FairyChatMom SMOOCHIES hee hee hee
But if i need a gentlemen to smooch-
Awww… it has to be my boy IRL. He knows who he is.
'love you, please don’t go away (it won’t be wonderful without you)
Turps…
:smooches Serendipity back: Honey, you’re SO not BFH. Not even close.
waits patiently for Nocturne to join him in the thread.
Whoohoo! I made tatertot’s list of her 102 most smoochable Dopers!
Do we call you tiredtot now? Or tatertongue - KERRSLAAAP! Bad Boy! 'Back in your box, now, beatle!
Kisses to tygr and oldscratch and JavaMaven1 and techchick68 and CnoteChris, BlackKnight and Lowellster.

But I have just a few more mistletoe kisses to distribute before I say goodnight: to AudreyK, Canadian Sue, Zette, Snark and Diane.
All for now. Goodnight everyone!

Hey Ray, if you’re reading this (and I know you probably are), all the best smooches are for you, hon.
:^)
Iolanthe, I thank you sincerely for both your sympathy and your kind words. While I certainly enjoy quoting Shakespeare, it CAN be a lot of work (admittedly a labor of love) and it means quite a bit to me to know that it’s appreciated!
May I compliment you on your apt quotations as well? I didn’t quote them above only to save space—they’re wonderful, and I couldn’t have done better!
And, for your kind words:
“I greet thy love,
Not with vain thanks,
but with acceptance bounteous”
–Othello, Act 3, Scene iii
I would also be remiss if I didn’t also return kisses of affection to purplebear, screech-owl (didja get my e-mail?), and Spider Woman! Bless you ALL for your kindnesses. (And one more thanks to GolfWidow as well!)
“I can no other answer make but thanks,
And thanks; and ever oft good turns
Are shuffled off with such uncurrent pay:
But, were my worth as is my conscience firm,
You should find better dealing.”
–Twelfth Night, Act 3, Scene iii
**
It has! One of the brighest lights in my humble life is BACK!
Adoring fans? Harem? I wish! Actually, I don’t. With all due respect to everyone else, you’re more than a match for me. And MY favorite, though your sig implies the reverse.
[sub]And, honey, you gotta use that sig more often[/sub]

“Sick-thoughted Venus makes amain unto him
And like a bold-fac’d suitor gins to woo him.”
–Venus and Adonis
"Kingdoms are clay: our dungy earth alike
Feeds beast as man: the nobleness of life
Is to do thus; when such a mutual pair
Embracing
And such a twain can do’t, in which I bind,
On pain of punishment, the world to weet
We stand up peerless."
–Antony and Cleopatra, Act 1, Scene i
Morning smooches to TVeblen, Persephone and dpr.

Why, thank you, Spider Woman.
Big happy kisses to my pals silent_rob, KKBattousai and poohpah chalupa.
Another out to Scotti, because she’s wonderful.
And finally, I’d like to return a favor from another thread and shyly cop a feel off CnoteChris.
