Given the carping and nasty nature of FR as of late, I thought it might be a good time to see the more civil and gracious side of participants. Here is a thread for just that purpose to edify, encourage, and thank.
Ever wanted to thank that unsung FR hero? Agree or disagree, why not tell JohnHuang2 or Registered how much you appreciate their skills. And can you imagine the many hours Alamo-Girl puts into her work? Perhaps you appreciate how well the folks over at Word For The Day wield their words. Or maybe you just want to tell WIMom and her gang that youre sorry for all your unkind words about the recent Freepathon ads, and thank her for all her hard work on that. Maybe you are an FR Radio fan. Well, you get the idea.
What this thread is NOT for: complaints against the management, flaming those you disagree with, bashing the current administration, leaving your opus, whinning about someone being banned, criticizing FR spelling, grammar, or sentence structure, calling out newbies (unless they are disrupting this thread, of course), shilling for your candidacy, carping about a particular regular thread. Well, you get the idea.
Freep on ..
P.S. No, Im not fishing for compliments. Ive already been called every name in the book here on FR, and toothless hag is still my personal favorite.
general! how on earth did you remember that? lol!
i do appreciate a good thong. won't wear anything else! ;)
YOU Indeed R o c k!!!
That rocks about as well as Burl Ives Sings Your Christmas Favorites.
Way, way too many people to thank for their friendship, insight and humor...
so I picked Billthedrill because he cracks me up and because I haven't seen him mentioned yet.
But most of all...
I'd like to thank Nancy and Sluggo and my Mom and the Sunday morning paper for teaching me to read.
FR is so much better that way.
Thanks Jaded...
CHEERS TO NEW AND OLD FRIENDS WHO HAVE LOTS OF OPINIONS!!!
Ossified as usual! Thx, 'Pod
You're welcome!
As Congressman Billybob has said, it's "like herding cats".
It seems that lately, either the cats are paying more attention, or we have become better herders.
I hope that we become even more of a cohesive group soon!
Hopefully we can all sit down together and meet one day.
All the best,
CD
Thanks to each of you for always doing your best to keep my garden peaceful.
JimRob for starting this.
BadJoe for the behind the scenes work he does.
Registered for the graphics. (Loved the Donahue website, much better than the ostrich.)
Mia T for all the cool stuff she's done, although she's been conspicuous by her absence lately. (Hope all is well.)
Travis McGee for his insight on military stuff.
Shooter 2.5 and others for an occasional intelligent conversation about shooting, etc.
PJ-Comix for his comics, and lately for helping OKC Submariner and others with OKC research.
Miss Marple for the Republican party line, (seriously) and her extraordinary insight, and Hillary's Lovely Legs for the guild stuff.
Last and most importantly, PhiKapMom, VOA, and Ole Okie for being OU fans and cool people...
Many others also.
PACKERS SUCK! ;-)
After all: faith is what is important. Religion is how we practice that faith.
