Dear all,
Thank you for giving me a huge smile this morning! I really appreciate the sentiment, thoughts and all those +1s. I'm not quite sure that to say but I wanted you to know that I'm really grateful.
Best wishes,
Noel
FOR PAT MARR
Pat, just what kind of rubber-stamp did you get (you know what I mean!)???? It seems like it desperately needs some very serious "how to be a good rubber-stamp" training. When I read what it had done in the above post, I turned a very very bright red - sort of like a fire-engine with high gloss paint work. Luckily no-one was around. Your rubber-stamp really shouldn't be allowed to mislead people like it has done. I was lucky the Floyd gave me the heads up about this post so at least I could write this note and address your -'s mischief.

I forgot about this thread until now, but in order to preserve the fabric of the universe, someone else needs to be "DA MANNED"
ANDREW's hard work, patience with all our whining, and diligence to track down and fix all forum bugs really, truly and uncontestably makes him DA MAN!
We appreciate all that you do!
PS: "YOU DA MAN"

Definitely! YOU DA MAN, ANDREW! I'm sorely tempted to let you out of the penalty box three years early. (Okay, the temptation has passed).

Paul Noel and Don great choices.
Just a thought, if this is a daily thing you might be running out of da mans/men pretty soon.

Hey Pat,
I have to say that giving Don your award was just great. I don't know of anyone more deserving on these forums. Life has led Don along paths that cross some mighty huge mountains. Always, though, he has maintained his dignity, his 'oirish' sense of humor and has personified the meaning of the phrase "positive outlook". He inspires all who meet him.
One doesn't come across too many people of Don's caliber in a lifetime.
Best regards,
Noel

Friends, I very humbly accept this honor while feeling like 20th runner-up amid a field of much more deserving contributors on these forums. I won't attempt to list them out of fear of missing someone. My memory leaks and Depends don't have nappies for that.
I subscribe to fellow Oklahoman Will Roger's philosophy on life when he said: "I've never met a man (person) that I didn't like!" Granted, some are far easier to like than others. I blame myself for that gap.
Some flatly refuse to be loved or liked. That burden is theirs totally and not mine to bear.
