Melliedee, for the calming combination of sweetness and intellect she brings to the board; MWC, because she's smart and strong enough to argue her point of view while remaining grounded and confident enough to never go nuclear; Cosmo, for being this board's mystical mad monk, profound and irreverant simultaneously.
I would love an afternoon in a cafe with these three talking the mysteries of time, the joys of literature and the dirt of politics. That would be a pleasure.

I normally shy away from thses kinds of threads, as I don't care for the "popularity contests" that they can sometimes turn into. I pretty much like everybody here and enjoy passing the time with them.
But PapaT, your words are so appreciated, particularly at this time. I am Conservator of my Mom's finances, and we have hit a point in the road where care issues have to be stepped up and bite into what we all had hoped would be our fairly generous inheritances ... and all I can do is be the one everybody vents at for decisions that need to be made. So I appreciate your highlighting what I consider to be one of my double-edged sword qualities and speaking of it as an asset to be valued.
This does not make me consider you a crush, though; but I consider you a brother.
Thanks.
