Seriously, had to leave this message down because its been long overdue and well deserved. I'll say it multiple times, thank goodness for our friends. They help us when it really counts. They deal with us when we are not at our best. They bring more perspective that can make you think. There are even occasions they can point out how dumb something we did is. In my opinion, those are true champs right there. And thanks so much to everyone who's my friend on here (by list or by proxy). Thanks to a lot of people who may think we could never be friends [we could, it doesn't take much =)]. A salute and a toast to you all and you know who you are.

How very sweet, Pro! I think it's great of you to post such a salute to your friends. I've been very lucky to have so many wonderful friends here on mylot as well, and you have some good points about the many ways in which they help us.
I'm so proud to be your friend!

Well a few friends here just helped me with another minor issue. It was about time I paid the loyal and loving ones back.
*embrace*
Thank you much Lecan...

Aww gee Gamer!
Got me all teary eyed here, whatcha trying to do?? lol
I've been scarce lately, just been busy with a new job and getting used to the adjustments of working 9 to 5 again.
Kind of slow at work today so I thought I would come on by and see what was going on here at myLot! Hope you had a grea New Year, and continue to do so!
Cheers to 2008!

Pro you are also an awsome Friend and do not let anyone tell you different
There is one thing that is puzzling me when I am on here and I go to your Discussions I will always rate you + all the way through but your Star is not going up and it is annoying me as you should not be a 6
Have you tried the Honey and Milk Sweet

I'm fixing it right now. I got caught up in ranting on the lot at a couple of other discussions (I know..."bad" Pro, bad!)
And don't strain too much over the star. I can be a bit rough with opinions, but those that know me well, know that I'm not bad and even better than that I'm more about helping others on lot. :)
You should see Stiletto's and Sacmom's most recent discussions :D

You're an awesome guy, Pro. Even though you don't know us, you gave my sister and I so much support with all the stuff involving our dad. It's hard to find people in your everyday life that take enough time to care about little or big things going on with their friends and family, but I've found people on MyLot that give incredible support and friendship everytime it's needed. Thank you for being one of those people.

Yes...and I still remember the whole ordeal. I... thanks so much Flight and Cait too, I know she's around too. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Even though I do enjoy my opinion sharing and even extreme cases of it... helping people, aiding people... being there for people... I enjoy that the most. I'm still thinking about you, Cait, Foxy, 2kids, RLF, Katlady, Lecan and others about their situations. I enjoy each and every great friend I've encountered here.

Hello dear programer. Thanks so much for your great friendship to us all mylotters. You are a very nice friend to be with. I appreciate your great learning in science and think that I will learn a lot from you about science. I do hope that you will not mind about my being off point to your topics about science if later my responses to them are not to the point. I am so happy to see that your being active with good topics benefit us all and I am happy to see your posts shooting up so fast. Salute to you as well, my dear programer friend.

I've been meaning to say the same thing! Since my mom passed away I have had so many people pm me with such wonderful words of sympathy. I do appreciate all of my friends and even those who are not on my friends list. This place is awesome.

"Thank you for being a friend...". It goes both ways, PG. You have always brought light to this here Lot and I personally thank you for all the posts and the research behind them. Always a great read, even when I don't how to respond (i.e. that road deflector thingymabob you were discussing. I figure get a tape measure!). So here's to you for being a friend...CHEERS!

Isnt that the truth, I have numerous people here that I think in my everyday life I would find fun and wonderful. They are here to talk to, to pour out my frustration, are willing to help me build my at home business and help me by answering my questions. I wish it was like that in real life.

It is harder to find in real life... in plenty of cases. At least with places like the lot you can find people who really come through. Just wanted to note it!

A very good discussion. It is something we should all say really more often. I have found some good friendships here.

A salute right back at you, Pro. I can only echo what you said, thank goodness for our friends. I can't tell you how many times I've been sitting here feeling really down, on myself, on life, on everything and my friends here have picked me up and made me laugh and made me think! Thanks!

I share you gratitude to all mylotters and I feel the same for them here who are always there to cheer us up when we are lonely and to lift us up when are down with their encouraging words. They have been part of the mylot support system.
