There are times when the words Thank You seem insufficient.

And that's where I am right now. I am so very grateful to all of you for your kindness and generosity. From the bottom of my heart, those two words are all I have, so as insufficient as they may seem, thank you. You have been there for me in the past during times of great joy and sadness, and once again you have made a difference.

Tomorrow morning, I load my pics into imgur. Sunday, I say my weekly thank you once again.

Y'all the best. Cheers.

There were many a predawn Sunday when I couldn't sleep, and I reached out for my phone and there you were with a bunch of funny/cute pics, and the lovely comments. Ahhhh - feel better already. Thank you for that.

But I found an informed, involved, FUNNY, progressive COMMUNITY!
People share thoughts, ideas, feelings, hobbies, obsessions, humor, their love for their pets, their griefs for the loss of a loved one, and they share the moments of beauty in this world.
Salmon, you have managed to share all of those things every week.
Thankyou!

What do we get in your average LOL Cats? weird cartoons, awful puns (a particular delight of mine) and photos of some of the most gorgeous of our fellow creatures, in full color and crisp detail. And all of this is for free. No, Thank you. Your creation is greater than the sum of its parts. And we all feel that.
