What a wonderful, heartfelt post, Bemused. I would say "sweet" ... but maybe that makes you as squirmy as the word "hug".
Reading this brought tears to my eyes.
What a wild and totally unpredictable (and LONG!) road we have walked together!
You have more than earned your place among the heroes of this website, forum and cause. Your poetic gift, humor, and keen insight have done more to keep people reading here than all the rest of us combined, I think.
I salute you, fellow traveler. You are a remarkable human being, in spite of the many obstacles thrown at you over the years. This is a testament to your character ... you deserve full credit for the man you are today. It is an honor and a privilege to be your friend.
