i have to join in...mostly because Syl directed me here to the Watch and this is the most fun i've had in ages!! (yes, i know, get a life Lucimay)
and because he's thoughtful, insightful, fair-minded, intensely smart, interesting, and funny.
(also, i'm convinced he's a Bridgeburner!)
Stand and be true, Gunslinger!

you're more advanced than a cockroach,
have you ever tried explaining yourself
to one of them?

i've had this with actors before, on the set,
where they get upset about the [size of my]
trailer, and i'm always like...take my trailer,
cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.

Ah, so he's the troublemaker responsible for bringing you here, Lucimay.Lucimay wrote:i have to join in...mostly because Syl directed me here to the Watch and this is the most fun i've had in ages!! (yes, i know, get a life Lucimay)
I've already praised Syl elsewhere, so I'll just sit back with my milk and cookies and let the rest of you fawn over him.

Oh, man. You guys rock. I'm honored and humbled. Seriously. And it was nothing none of you wouldn't have done, I'm sure (I mean, look at Danlo and letting Watchers stay at his house (or organizing the Dissection... is it any wonder he's Watcher of the Year?), or MatrixMan, Dragonlily, and them doing the anthology, and many others...).
Just making me realize that we are all one big... family. Community just doesn't do it. You don't always like everyone in a community, feel any sense of belonging, I guess. Family can argue over Thanksgiving dinner (unless that's just my family) and still be family.
Ok, now I'm getting verklempt. Talk amongst yourselves.
Thanks, guys. You make it all worth it... whatever that means.

That's really nice Syl. You better be careful, or you'll be Watcher of the year in the next awards. 
You're right though, Kevinswatch is an amazing place... Nearly everyone fits in; and gets on very well.
Though I don't fit in...
So if it's a family, where to I belong? Am I an orphan? Or the illegitmate child of Jay? 
In which case...

You fit in just fine, Darth. If anything, you're the kid we tease by telling him he was adopted.

SYl, it was an excellent job. And you do rock for doing it! Thanks for a job well done.
