Happy New Year everyone!

I opened up my mail the other day, and these days, it's tough, because of a recent tragedy, getting mail for someone who is no longer around is just a bitter pill. But I digress. I opened up a lovely Christmas card from my very good friend BBG and her hubby. Talk about making my day!

From this little electronic device and the magic of Al Gore's interwebs, the relationships I have made here on AN, the wonderful friendships, the moments of levity, have been nothing short of amazing in my life. Where do you rush to when you hear the slightest rustle in the wind about our team? How many times have we gotten together for tailgates and parties because of the relationships on this site?

The recent events with mikev and Nico are just indicative of a relationship; sometimes they are difficult. But let's all take a moment out of our busy schedule today to thank Nico, Blez, BBG, Don (both good and evil), EN, Dan the magical Bot, et al for their time and service in keeping this machine living and breathing. I know that without AN in my life, despite the occasional META, would not be as enriched.

Thank you BBG for taking the time to send me a Christmas card and bringing some holiday cheer into my life. What do you love about AN everyone? Who would you like to thank?
