A thread with this title was posted about 10 years ago. The top choices were JohnHuang2 and kattracks (who sadly died of cancer a couple of years ago).
My current favorites are governsleastgovernsbest for posting his great commentaries from newsbusters here (this is NOT an ad). I also like RobinMasters, he finds great articles to post. Also, kudos to Cindy for her relentless research. And of course, Jim Robinson who makes this all possible.
This thread is dedicated to kattracks, a true friend of FR. May she rest in peace.
Thank you.
Jeepers, dear brother in Christ, thank you oh so very much for your encouragements! (blushing here...)
You never lose sight of the forest no matter how much I get distracted by the trees. And your delivery is so eloquent, you could tell a person to go to hades and they'd be looking forward to the trip.
Truly, I rely on you. Indeed, any attempt to separate us now would be like trying to remove the chocolate from the chocolate milk. LOLOL!
We were late working at the church yesterday getting it ready for an all-day VBS program for today. One grandmother was telling how her little grandson, about 4, had been obsessed with death over the last few weeks. He'd noticed as his mother's grandparents had passed away this past year. So, he'd been asking his grandpa (and anyone who'd answer) about death. "Are you going to die, grandpa?" The adults would answer, and he'd ask about what happens. They'd shared with him about heaven and hell. His grandmother had come home from work later that day, and he'd been telling her about it. He blurted out: "I can't wait to go to Hell!" They were stunned. Every head turned. His mom said, "Heaven. It's heaven you want to go to." He smiled big (he's a quiet little guy) and simply corrected, going on like no big deal, "Yeah...I can't wait to go to heaven." So, Betty, if you tell me to go to hell, and I feel good about it, it's because I know you really mean the other place. :>)

Wow...I’m honored! :)
LOLOL! What a precious story!
Yep. I think you’re gifted in that area. Thanks for your input, and prayers for you, your health, and your family. Give my regards to your father.
drstevej...Dr.Eckleburg...and my long lost favorite...the_doc!
Haven’t seen the_doc in a long, long time. I had been on FR for a while before I noticed the religion threads. This was a bit before the advent of the religion forum. The_doc was in about his last year when I got started. We posted back and forth at each other a few times, but I never really got to know the guy. I knew that he was a bit caustic.
thanks marlowe
thanks marlowe
Has anybody come up with a category for our good old buddy CTD yet? :p
CTD....can’t remember what the initials stand for, anymore.
Strange, isn’t it?
"connectthedots...la, la, la-la"
I plumb forgot what ctd meant.
Old age creeping up...
I am flattered to be included on your list.
My favorite FReeper is .....
Viking Kitty!!!:)
Mine.
