I have to go through this little exercise every single year at the family dinner table but since this is my first year here at the Great Orange Satan I'll share some things I'm thankful for involving DKos.
I'm thankful for Cheers and Jeers, which was my indoctrination to the site and some of its interesting wildlife. I get a little lost now if it's not there around 8:23am every weekday(and 6-ish on Fridays). So Cheers to that, and to BiPM for having a kiddie pool for us all to splash in and many blessings for our camels. Still don't know where he gets them all. Blessing Clearance Outlet?
I'm thankful for GOP infighting in South Carolina and I'm sure other places. Let them eat each other. Maybe saner voices can sneak in while they're at each other's throats.
I'm thankful for pootie diaries. Miss triciawyse, otherwise known as the Pootie Queen, and her legion of PWB Peeps keep me (relatively)sane at 2:30 every day. As you can see from my profile pic, I had one of my own who I miss very much. I fill the void with Rory, Loki, Koko, Andy and their amazing friends. I send many scritchies to your pooties, woozles and critters.
I'm thankful for weatherdude, DKos' Secretary of Explaining Weather Shit. Fascinating subject to me, good stuff.
I'm thankful to the handful of folks who have read the handful of poorly-written and barely-thought-out diaries I've written. I do better with comedy and snark than factual stuff but I'm working on that.
I'm thankful to Keith Olbermann for introducing me to this Markos Moulitsas guy on his shows and making me wonder what the heck a Daily Kos was. Now I know, and like most things Keith I'm better informed because of it.
And finally, I'm thankful to be sane enough to enjoy a place like this. I don't agree with everything on here. That would be boring. Debating with like-minded folks armed with facts? Not boring.
