I have spent many hours reading the archives of TFP in the short time
I have been here.

After reading the Mormon post I love RetroGunslinger.

I think his penis is probably bigger...what with all the swelling that wont go down.

Besitos vampireboy.

blahblah454

girldetective is amazingly witty and I love reading her posts. But her name change throws me off when I am in the main page and I see who has posted last in threads. (I think to myself, who on earth is girldetective? Then I see that awesome avatar and I look forward to a good read!)

Martian

blahblah454 is one sharp sign. Err... dude. Whatever.

I'm envious of how on track his life is.

girldetective is insane.

Tully Mars

Always something positive to add. Plus he seems to have a "thing" about guitars which just naturally makes him cool.

Of course it does. I'm pretty sure I've already explained that to you.

Martian's cool incarnate, even if I do fear he might have plans to blow up the earth.

As for Mexico wait for a cooler temps. Really hot and humid right now.

RetroGunslinger

Mixedmedia is a Bob Dylan fan and she has one of the best Dylan and one of the best non-Dylan quotes in her signature, making her all kinds of awesome that I can't even imagine to begin to describe. She's also a Super Moderator, and boy howdy don't I love the word "super".... Super.... heh...

girldetective writes interesting and well thought out contributions to the TFP...she is a sensitive soul with a curious mind and a big heart!

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.

Fernando Pessoa, 1918

kramus

little_tippler has often posted bang-on, timely and very welcome observations and responses which have been personally very welcome.
Plus, she has beautiful eyes.

amonkie

Mixedmedia has a strong talent for looking at things in not so ordinary ways, or looking at offbeat things that I'd never heard of, and bringing them to my attention at which point I often become a fan.

girldetective

Snowy has a big heart, and a big brain. She knows she cant go wrong with these. We like her practicality with humor.

Edit: Lotsofmagnets has the ability to jump time and beat me to the punch for Snowy. In addition, Magnets pulls me right in with her posts. Quite attractive.

thespian86

blah, and obviously we are on a first name basis (is there a first name in that?), is constantly listening to Iron and Wine; in fact, it's been on repeat for three days. This means I like him. He is also Canadian; therefore I understand him...

I see a beautiful friendship.

Fly is one of the first folks around here that I got 'an impression' of. And that impression was correct. He is the essence of amity and good nature. He stays above the fray and is friendly with everyone. So much more noble (and rare) than those of us who love to jump in and blather our opinions all over every one else, lol.

Fly is like unto 'the Dude.' And that's a hell of a thing in my estimation.
