It's Compliment Weekend at FR!

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.

I want to thank JMJ333, Lady In Blue, Salvation, and nickcarraway for constantly providing the Catholic Caucus with such excellent posts on the Religion Forum. God bless you all!

>It's Compliment Weekend...

Hmmm. There's something Hallmark-y about this whole concept, but so long as I don't have to actually buy a card with a Thomas Kinkade "painting" of a cottage on it, I guess it can't hurt to play along.

AmishDude -- Yes, even you, KissoftheSith, let's just not make it FrenchKissoftheSith, OK?

[squints like Steven Seagal] Bank on it. (And, what the hell, have a nice weekend.)

Sabertooth -- May the Freeping Force be with you.

And also with you. And watch out for the downside of the schwartz...

Thank you, lovely palo.
I enjoy your posts, too.

[sweetliberty]

Thanks for sharing your wit and wisdom. You've challenged me and given me a lot of laughs too. You're fun to play with because I learn so much from you. You are still my favorite FReeper.

My father (history_matters) would have wanted to thank Father Elijah for all that he did on FreeRepublic and through Freepermail. May God bless father_elijah wherever he may be today.

Ouch!

Right in the rocks!

"I guess I could have worded that better... "

That was my only laugh for a long time. Thank you so much for the compliment. I have really enjoyed writing to so many people on this board and I've learned so much. It isn't possible for one person to know every aspect of it.

I started on FR because of the JFK threads because to me, it's a shooting incident. I learned more about external ballistics through those threads.

I want to thank you for posting the Daily Psalm on the Daily Dose. It gives us much comfort.

[Luis Gonzalez]

My thanks and my admiration to you, members of the EliaNation for your support, your unwavering belief in the right of a little child to live free, and the endless hours battling and praying for his freedom in this arena.

NEVER FORGET!

[OC_Steve]

Thanks as well for the California pings. We gots to keep our eye on Grayout Davis.

I finally got in here to post my compliments. It was sort of one of those weeks. Ick.

To Jim Robinson and all who make FR work: You guys are the best. I thought I was the only one out there, and finding FR saved my sanity.

To Miss Anniegetyourgun: Thanks for starting WFTD and getting us past the troubles of the beginning. I miss you as a teacher, but I sure appreciate your battling for us and coming in to make sure the monsters are staying in line. :-)

To the Students of WFTD: I'd list every one of you, but wouldn't you know that I left my completed "ping" list at work? Thanks for coming and and posting and making some of the most humorous and insightful posts I have ever seen. And if y'all don't quit rushing the door, someone's going to get hurt! LOL

To JohnHuang2 and gwmoore: Thanks to you two for saying in your essays what I am thinking but can't get across with nearly as much pizzaz and clear headedness. You two have a beautiful way with words.

To coteblanche: I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate the poetry thread, it is a work of beauty, and I do love to see the creative minds of FR but their thoughts into poems. It's a joy to see.

To the Posters of FR: Collectively, this is one of the most intelligent gathering of people, you have taught me more than I would have thought, and given me more to think on that I needed. :-) I consider it an education to be here and you are all the professors in our battle against the liberal agenda.

Thanks.

Mornin', big J!

[joyce11111]

I want to thank everybody here. This is the best place to go on the internet.

God Bless you all.

(And I have a note from my husband explaining my absence from class for the last two days tied to a bottle of fine old scotch waiting on your desk for Monday morning!)

Tiger, darling, you'll take care of that for your little missus, wontcha? Hmmm?

Note to teacher: Dear Miss RikaStrom, Please excuse .30Carbine for her recent absence from class. She was feeling under the weather so I've been repeatedly taking her temperature. I haven't found anything wrong with her yet (and I'm nearing exhaustion myself) but she insists that she doesn't feel 'quite right' yet. I am determined to get to the bottom of it and will continue to probe until I'm certain she's able to concentrate on her studies again. During a recent examination she suddenly exclaimed "My word!" so I think she does have your class on her mind.

Sincerely, .30's husband/doc, TigersEye

Kudos to Sandy for bringing so much actual information to FR.
