Good morning Billie, and good morning Cobby!
Gee, what can I say? Cobby was one of my first friends on FR. We met in the Smokers Lounge and I was just bowled over by his outrageous humor! It wasn't long before I realized that he wasn't just funny, he had a heart as big as Texas, and a temper just about as big as that flag he posts that is the biggest one in the known universe according to him! But he gets over pretty quick too, right Cobby? ( I hope so anyway!:-)

We had the pleasure of his company in Fresno at our tailgate party, and I was so happy to finally meet my cyber buddy! I must say, I was along side when Cool Guy gave him that cool California welcome! I saw it coming and I got the heck out of the way after having my purse drenched when Chadsworth got the same treatment! He was a great sport about it, and I would guess that after the shock was over, he felt pretty good as it was soooo hot that day!

Cobby, I am so glad to you are being honored today! Another birthday present to one of the finest guys on FreeRepublic, and one I proudly call my friend!

Doggone it, LIR, if old chadsey wasn't lurking somewhere in the background, I'd give you a big kiss!
I guess I'll have to settle for a big

{{{{HUG !}}}}

Tell him I'll bring him a chocolate flavored doggie bone for allowing me to do that!

Good morning, ladyred! What a great 'tribute' to Cob! I know how so many of you feel about him, and from all indications the feeling is mutual! He's a great guy, and the FResno FReepers are a great bunch! Heck, we're ALL great guys! :)
