Sigod is clever/funny -- gets a vote.

Arcer, ditto.

Richardh is an old-time, essential, long-suffering, but ever-loyal ELP fan, and a thoughtful guy -- he gets one.

Joren & Penguin, for being "wise beyond their tender years," and giving us oldsters a fresh perspective.

Reed Lover, for initially (deliberately, yet!) irritating me, but then becoming a chum -- and for being a formidable debater, often unabashedly, gloriously politically incorrect, and for always calling it like he sees it.

Petra & Gdub for being so adorably girlish....Wink (Just joking, Pet! No sexism intended!)

And everyone else (here and not here) for being "mostly harmless," and... well -- just because I'm so insufferably NICE!Hug

(Plus it's time for BED!)Sleepy

 

Many greats and near-greats have come and gone, too....Cry

Sweet a positive comment for me! And even poor K00l. As I've said before, I share your love for Mr. Gabriel.

So us Robs are 2 of a kind eh? Damn him! Stealing my identity!

it seems to work out though, the mix of humor, extensive knowledge, etc, and with each member lost we lose a piece of this delicately mended piece of fabric.

Let the Forum Live!

Right Maani!Clap Stop the MADNESS!Wink

Big smileRemember the scene in Python's brilliant "Life of Brian?"

An exasperated Brian: "You don't need to follow anyone!.... You're all different!"

Small voice in crowd of deluded, sheep-like syncophants: "I'm not."

Ha!LOL

All:

Actually, I did not vote, nor would I (for obvious reasons).  However, more than that, while I will not delete this thread (since you have every right to post it), I'm not sure that it is helpful in any way, and may in fact be unintentionally divisive.  All of you are important to the site - and no, I'm not just "sucking up" to anyone or everyone.

So, whatever happens with this thread, please know that it does not, cannot, and should not reflect the truth: that everyone is equally important, and that every voice counts.

Peace.

It is downright disturbing that a 44 year old would call a "bud" a South American Male he knows only through the internet.

Not liking to suck up, but I voted for cet1fied, mainly because of his reviews, which i in general find to be in correspondence with what I think of the reviewed album.

Check that out. I say you get a vote just because of you're attention to detail with font.
