I love my parents,
My friends,
And All the regs here (dang, If I weren’t still semi newbie, I’d be able to reel everyone off no prob!!,)
Euty always says things so well and cleverly!!
Ben Hicks OH MY GOSH, when he rants? He knocks 'em dead
Crazy Cat Lady for saying what I’m thinking, only much more eloquently
Manda Jo for knowing EXACTLY the right thing to say in every post I’ve seen
Esprix for saying things I’m thinking, but wasn’t quite brave enough to whine about.
All the folks in GD for making me think
Some of the trolls even, after all they can be distracting and even amusing from time to time.
I love everyone on my LiveJournal friends list. You, obviously, know who you are. I love reading your entries and letting me in on the mundane and not-so-mundane facets of your lives.
Today, I especially love CrankyAsAnOldMan and Hello Again, for hosting a wonderful party this evening and Zappo for bringing me Tastykakes. And when I got home a few minutes ago, I found a package on my porch. So I especially especially love Sue Duhnym for sending me rugelach from New York!
I am so grateful to have good and thoughtful friends, and I love the SDMB for introducing me to so many of them.
I love my girl, who I will be posting about in just a few more minutes.
I love my children, without whom I would be less of a man, and not a very good person.
I love my blood, and some of my non-blood. My love is kill-or-die love, without end and without question.
Dopers I really really dig, but can’t use the word love on because it means something different for me…
Kat Lady- even though she’s covered in “blood”, since she’s my mom. She don’t post much, but she’s here. Mnementhe or however it’s spelled. A warrior, and a man who loves blades. Can’t go wrong on that one. Fenris- The man who has taught me much about the books I love, and knows more about The Master than I do. Esprix- He means something to many of my SCA friends, though he doesn’t know it. Blue Feather for life, man. AirmanDoors - Because he’s doing what I cannot. And he is a voice or reason on almost anything he posts on. Watch your six, and come back to us soon. even sven - Gets much respect from me. Her communist ways are… interesting, and I think she’s got a lot to learn, but her staunch stand on things she believes in is admirable to the extreme. Zenster- If only because I’m going to get fat on some recipes. Devotion to threads is a good thing. Manegorge- Who has, oddly enough, been the first to respond to most of my GD threads. For making me rethink my posts. Scylla- For making me laugh, and maudlin, all in one post. You should go pro, man. garuis, Omni, Soup de Jure and the rest of the Newbie Dip people - For putting up with my constantly late mid-week orders.
There are many others, but I can’t think of names.
And now I’m off to join the faceless masses who won’t get named by name here…
Well, Lobsang beat me to it, but having had the joy of forging a friendship with Ice Wolf has been the pinnacle of my own rather low trajectory Dopin’ career. I love this place, and am addicted to it, but knowin’ the Wolf just takes the whole shebang to the next level.
Cheers Wolfie for bein’ there to howl at the moon with.
Um – thanks, TLD. I’m not sure if you’ll ever realise how much your friendship has kept me going, mate. You’ve probably got an inkling, I’ll grant you that.
Thanks. Thanks for bein’ you. And thanks, to the eternal stars and beyond, for bein’ my friend.
Copaesthetic, thanks man I appreciate that. I’m still learning my way around here and learning the people here. This seems like a great community of diverse people. I already have developed respect for some of you and have even learned a thing or two on the way. I just hope I can add something useful to the board in return.
Awww … I can so feel the love right now! Thanks sweetie!
I’m in need of some lovey thoughts today so I’ll contribute.
First on my list is my sweet hubby Copaesthetic. I really love my Mom-in-law Esther and my deceased Father-in-law Dick, although I never got to meet him I can see him in my husband. I can tell he must have been an incredibly man.
I love my parents, Pat and Joe. They have been an incredible inspiration and support to me. I love my brother Jason and my soon to be sister-in-law Katie. I wish them all the happiness in the world.
I love my cousins Craig and Michael who are serving in the Gulf right now. Godspeed and may you come home safe and sound.
I love my boss, Marian. She is a woman of great knowledge, wisdom and understanding.
I love my far-away friends Aimee, Jana, Zach, Ariel, Jeremy and Dennis. Though I haven’t seen them in years, they’ve always been there for me when I needed them.
As for my SD & LJ friends, I love you all. garius I love you because you’re incredibly cool and british. And you smell nice. Monstre I love you because you’re cuddly. CanvasShoes I love you because you kick ass. And you need some lovin’ what with your foot owie and all. Tiggeril I love you (and miss you!) because you’re bouncy. Come back to LJ damnit! lel I love you because you are wise and caring (and cute!) Mnementh I love you because you like sharp pointy things. Maeglin I love you because you are the coolest hot dog vendor in the world. Ender I love you because you’re goofy and you make me smile CelticCowboy I love you because you’ve got a beautiful soul (and you remind me of Robert Redford). twickster47 I love you because you’re mischeivous neutron star I love you because you understand :: Tuckerfan I love you because you’re patient … I promise I’ll finish those pictures soon! I swear! Flamsterette_X I love you because you’re thoughtful and feisty Welfy I love you because you look for truth and enjoy life daowajan I love you because of your confidence and passion imthjckz I love you because of your sense of humor
And I love all of you who have counseled me, comforted me, made me laugh and educated me so many timed.

I’ve never, ever been mentioned in a single one of these who do you like/love/think is cool threads. I didn’t think anyone here even noticed me. Poly, dude, my sincerest thanks for bringing me out of the lurking mists, if even just for a second.
Of course, no offense Poly, but why couldn’t it have been Jinwicked or Orange Skinner or maybe Hillbilly Queen?
Oh well, I’ll take it anyway. Ya gotta start somewhere. I truly love this place, I hope everyone doesn’t think I’m a troll. I do have a somewhat hit-and-run style of posting. It’s just my way. I love all you folks!
Alright, pull it together people! Polycarp’s list was alphabetized! Where are everyone else’s organizational skills?
Of course my list is still ongoing, and I’ll keep adding to it as I go.
Now, of course, because of my bad organizational skills I have to go back and review my list to see who I’ve put on it and who I’ve missed.
Don’t forget, if you haven’t been “named” around here yet, come on in and name some folks, out of 33,000 posters we’re all bound to forget people, and not out of spite. I love everybody as best I can, so if I haven’t met you yet, now’s the perfect opportunity to get some lovin’.
