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 you’re 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, I’m not fishing for compliments. I’ve already been called every name in the book here on FR, and “toothless hag” is still my personal favorite.
Yep. Forty-seven years ago today I was giving my parents a rough night, the first of many as they would say. I'm lucky that everyone is here too, my brother and his kids made it down for a couple of weeks. I'll be celebrating it with them.
Tonight, I'm celebrating with friends.
Does it get any better than this?
They serfve you loads of steaming meat, right from the fire, and serve with moros (rice and black beans), fried sweet plantains, and yuca in the same marinade used on the pork.
They serve the coldest longnecks that I've ever had.
You sit in an open air dining room--no walls, just a palm frond roof--with the Gulf of Mexico on one side of you. and the Atlantic Ocean on the other.
What are you all doing for lunch next Saturday?
"May I echo your thanks to Blam for the fascinating articles he has posted."
Thanks to both of you for your participation and thanks especially to Ernest for setting up the Gods, Graves, Glyphs do-dad. This is 'blam' visiting my son 'Charge Carrier' in Glendora (in SoCal) for the next few days. (I don't know how to log on under my own screen name (blam) from here.)
