It's time again! Post something nice about your fellow DUers!
Let's show the love guys!

To all you amazingly bright and witty people - you make my mornings, noons, and nights (and any other time I should be doing things but always wander back here). Thanks. :) And a special thanks to the Morning Crew! :grouphug:

who kick major ass! They know who they are! :yourock: There's especially this one person who I have talked to everyday for the past week. I'd like her to know that she's an awesome person and that she's the easiest person I have ever talked to here on the DU. To her:

5. They make me think, laugh, cry, grieve, sing, shout out loud
Now, being a sorta long-timer, I could easily go on and on and on, naming names and designating qualities.

There is nothing BUT good to say about our fellow DU'ers (except the quickly-caught and disposed-of disruptors).

DU has literally saved my sanity on a few occasions.

:toast: fellow DU'ers! I :loveya: :grouphug:

11. Thank you, all you smart people DU:ers
I appreciate your getting the truth to me, served here in a very nice, tasteful setting. I can enjoy my 3 square meals of honesty, unvarnished facts, and cut away all the lies and tasteless propaganda and quivering rhetoric like cutting away the fat on a big steak.

Because that's the reason I come here: to get the truth. I'm an information junkie, and this is a junkie's paradise.

(Holds up champagne glass) cheers! To the facts.

13. DU is a beacon of light
in the otherwise dark, dismal wasteland of today's politcal landscape. You let me know there is hope.

Thank you for being there and not letting the repubs depress me too much!

You all are the best!

14. They're passionate, caring, and concerned..
Edited on Fri Jun-11-04 12:47 AM by Solly Mack
They're funny...smart....nice.


They like Yaks...which is very important.
They understand the power of Thongs.....
They know without music, life would be less.
They know that books are actually a food group....without which our minds and hearts would starve.

.....and best of all....they are way more fun than the voices in my head.

26. This is my love letter to Skinner and EarlG:
Thank you for saving me from going postal in the dark days following sElection 2000. If not for you and this site you created and ran with your own money, I might have ended up on a water tower somewhere. Thank you for creating the best political forum on the Internet (no wingnuts allowed unless they play well with others!). Thank you for hiring Elad for his awe-inspiring coding skills that have continually improved this place. Thank you for your original idea of hiring volunteer moderators that has kept this place mostly free of the worst kind of trash and trolling.

Thank you, guys. You've kept me sane for the last 3-1/2 years.

:loveya:

We spare no expensive for our feline friends. If something happened to me and I had to entrust the care of Abbott & Evita, I would have no problem with any of you taking in my cats (although Abbott will specifically go to Tx-Rat)

She's the first real-world friend that I introduced to DU and now she's a lounge lizard like me. Only a few of you have met her at the March for Choice last April, but I know GOPisEvil adores her just as much as I do. Heck, all 3 of us email each other when we're at work!!!

Sus will be at the counter convention with me in NYC - you should hang out with the both us us

My toast thread:

To VelmaD, ZombyWoof, and nothingshocksmeanymore for reaching out at times when I needed someone to reach out. You guys rock! :yourock:

To TXlib to putting a wonderful spin a really tough week last March and always having something nice to say to me. (And to KCDem for putting up with him and showing everyone how Omaha chicks can actually be cool.) :D

To sundog for all the Olivia Newton John pics when he sees I'm having a bad day. :)

To Matcom for being the funniest guy around, and always making me smile with his news stories, etc. and yes, he does have a nice ass. :7 :spank:

To everyone I've met in Cambridge and here in CT (NightTrain and Jonnyblitz in addition to Amaya), you are all amazing people. :pals:

To m-jean03 for the muffins. :7

To he who shall remain nameless, I wish I could forget, but I can't. You know how I feel.

To anyone I missed (and I know I probably will kick myself later):

If I start listing all the DUers who have been wonderful to me we'll be here all day and I'm sure to leave someone out and I wouldn't hurt their feelings for all the money in the world.

Every last person on DU helps keep me laughing in the face of it all. :grouphug:
