Sukie: I felt the need to address your "sudden" inspirational message about the moderator of FML. I really need to say that when we have a forum like this - what alot of us don't think about - is all the emails that come in, that make this list. Someone has to be on the "receiving" end of all these emails. That same someone has to read them, edit them, decide which ones will make it in or not, etc. Then - that someone has to take the time to put them into proper format - ensure that things ARE there, like say, uhm - when someone is "donating" ferrets - and forget to say WHERE they are from - Mr.Bill finds out where they are from, and lets us know! **That one was for you Bill** - *Winks* What I am trying to say here is Bill DOES deserve a super big thank you from each and every one of us. Not only does he do all the above mentioned tasks - but he takes the time to write to us when we - uhm, perhaps send in something to be put in that uhm, has, uh, "questionable" statements.....and kindly redirects us - giving us another chance to "rethink" our post before we say something we might regret....(** I wonder WHO I could be referring to!!! Hehehe). So everyone - we quite frequently do challenges to each other for the best Ferret story - I have another CHALLENGE F0R EVERYONE! My challenge: The Best Mr. Bill story that you have!! It can be how he has helped you, or someone you know - a story you remember - whatever. BUT it has to be a GOOD story about him! Bill - please allow us to do this - to thank you for all the hard work ANd the hours that you put into making this list. We sometimes get wrapped up in our little "dramas" and very frequently don't take the time to say thank you for all you do - so from me, to you - THANK YOU, THANK YOU AND THANK YOU!!!! My story: Bill very kindly "caught" a post (ok, ok, so it was a couple posts.....) from me - that wasn't so "nice" - and re-directed it back to me, asking if I was "sure" I wanted to say what I had written......I thank God that he did. He gave me the chance to "cool down" - and rethink what I wrote - and the chance to retract it - thankfully so. It wasn't a very "nice" post and I am glad that he caught it! So - this is just ONE of the times that Bill has helped me........anybody up to this challenge? Kim and Her Army of Idiots [Posted in FML issue 4601]
