Here's one from a long lost stranger. Maybe someday he'll come and say hi to the folks in the hood.

Well, as I approach the 2k mark, I figured I'd start writing that long, sappy post about how much I love you guys...then I saved it 'til today.

Chummin - You were the first guy I really talked to on here, and the first to drag me into the group at the one gathering I've been priviliged to attend to this point at the E-Bar. I know I've pissed you off numerous times, but I still think you're one of the coolest guys out there, thanks for giving me chance after chance after chance.

Punchdrunk Monkey, Copper, EBG/Buggy, Crash, RRon3, socaldmax, the handful of other people I met that night, thanks for making me and Sarah feel welcome.

Pastor - Thanks for being the steady, level head that you are. Thanks for pulling my head out of my (_|_) when I needed it, for backing me when I'm right and using logic/reason/factual info to show me when I'm wrong. You really are the Voice of Reason.

Esco - Damn, man! How can I ever hope to hang with a superhero like you? I told my wife last night "Esco hit 25,000 today," and she was just like and started ranting about how whatever thread she lurks on you've got a post. Thanks for keeping the SD pride alive, even though our sports teams suck (although progressively less) and a lot of North County-ites seem to think they're Los Angeles del Sur.

FrOg - One of the (incredibly) few other liberal-minded folks on here. Thanks for having my back, having great jokes, and being an outstanding milf hunter.

2G - You got your name right. And that's good enough for me. I think I still owe you beer.

Rubherboobies - Someone had to mess with the first half of your name eventually. You seem to be (almost) as much of a troublemaker as me, we'll have to tip back a or two when you come back to SD.

KLULISS - The joke queen. Thanks for all the chuckles and the occasional spit coffee on my monitor.

carmanea - Thanks for the PW encouragement, for wasting time at work in the lounge, and for the points to buy my bling-bling glow name way back when I was still an uncool noob.

angry dad/stonehenge - If no one hated me, what fun would defending my liberalism be?

53 willys/Siouxzie Q - Good move camping at the canal. Always a cool time hanging with you guys...just get rid of some of those toys and fix the rest! My offer on the skis stands...

RCD Ryan - Post some more you effin' noob! And get that hole in your pipe taken care of so we can take a farewell trip next weekend! I noticed in your profile your campsite happens to be Glamis canal, not 3rd baseline...full convert? About time...

Slappy - Last but not least, muchos thank yous go out to the man that made it all possible. For the cool posts, goofy cartoons, beautimous pics of Mother G, great contests, I thank you. For the stickers I know will be coming (and SOOOOON) and for bringing all these wonderful people together.

To all else, because I'm sure I've forgotten many, thanks to each and every one of you, except for the ones who voted on my poll to banish me from the board (j/k, I love you guys too). I know I've pissed many off with my radical views, I hope by now most everyone knows to take what I say with a grain of salt and a hefty helping of liquor. Tons of people have helped me, agreed with me, or just shared a kind word, thanks for making me feel like a part of the greatest community centered around the greatest paradise in the world. Okay, too much reading and babbling. Let's go ride, beers on me back at camp!
