Any list must start with **Medea’s Child**. There are some other really kind people here. As a few of my friends here know, I had a distressing personal situation that considerably diminished my enthusiasm in participating here. Several very nice people sent me very supportive e-mails and/or called me to show their support. If they don’t qualify, then no one does: In alphabetical order… \*\*Diane GolfWidow Jester Michi \*\* (aka **Cyndar** , but you’ll always be _Michi_ to me) **MrBlue92 SpiderWoman TroubleAgain** I hope I haven’t left anyone out. I feel terrible when I do that. Those are all the people I can think of. That’s more than enough, though: “I count myself in nothing else so happy As in a soul remembering my good friends” –Richard II, Act 2, Scene iii And in my own words: Thank you. My gratitude exceeds my meager ability to express myself. ---

First and Foremost…True Pisces 🙂 It’s a miracle we get any work done at our respective jobs w/ all the emailing back and forth hehehe. You have listened to me whine and rant about youknowwho endlessly and I thank you for it. Then UncleBill…for defining turbo-flirt and giving some days that extra pick me up 😉 Then Blur…we only email Sun-Tues but anyone who fantasy books a whipped cream match between me and Jeff Hardy gets a vote. Plus you’re my favorite little jabroni 🙂 Then Verrain…sorry the Flrting School pulled you away from RL but thanks for always having something nice to say. Bailey’s on me next time;) ---

I have to nominate **TruePisces** and **Eutychus55**. Not only are they genuine, all-around nice people, but they both sent me birthday cards. 🙂 Also on my _nice folks to hang around_ list are **matt\_mcl** , **FairyChatMom** , **tiggeril** , **Doobieous** , and any number of others. It’s easy to ignore the sniping that goes on here, just like anywhere. It’s tougher to ignore the caring and generous nature of most of the people on the board. Thanks for being here, y’all. ---

…Naturally, I have to exclude myself (but only since I’m relatively new here, and you all don’t really know me yet. I’m a hell of a guy). But, based off of what I’ve seen on here, I’d have to say: Women- **Medea’s Child Falcon Cyn TruePisces** And, the men- **UncleBill dantheman mouthbreather** ---

Thank you for your kind words, everyone! It means more to me than I can tell you. I heartily endorse all nominated posters. And lets not forget **dpr** … Scotti ---

(((Dan))) Thanks for saying I’m nice, my friend. 😃 I wish I could list all the folks here that I think are nice. But the list is just too darn long. This board has been my salvation through times of trial, and I’ve gotten more support here than any one person deserves. But I must give honorable mention to **Euty, Scotti, evilbeth, dantheman,** and **xploder.** Truly fine human beings, and I am proud to call them friends. ---

::bump:: I have to add to my list Dublos. After he read my girly moment thread he sent me a virtual bouquet and made me grin like a moron. And Falcon…it’s so good to know I’m not the ONLY one-we are living parallel lives 😉 ---

Wow! You’ve got me blushing, guys! :o \*\*DRY, TruePisces, silent\_rob, \*\*you guys are so sweet. I just try to be a good friend… I personally would like to nominate all of you, too, plus \*\*purplebear, Scotticher, Falcon, \*\*and **SpiderWoman** for the girls and \*\*Euty, Fenris, robgruver, odieman \*\*and \*\*that Dave guy \*\*(whose name I’ll never get right, but I’m sure you all know who I mean.) There are others, but in the interest of keeping this short, I’ll say pretty much everyone who’s already been nominate, plus a whole lot of other people! 🙂 ---

And add **Mauvaise** and **screech-owl** to my list. I thank you both for being my friends, for being so understanding about my long absence in corresponding with you both. And most of all, for forgiving me for not starting or posting to a birthday thread for you two, since both your birthdays occurred during my absence. Bless you both.
