DUer you most want to be like?
I'm happy with myself in life and how I am with my family and friends, but when it comes to the way a someone is on a message board, I'd have to say GOPisEvil. Over the years I've been here, I just have such a respect for how this dude is on these forums. He's someone that manages to consistently be himself and get his ideas across, but not take sides and get himself involved in anyone else's conflict. I try to handle myself similarly, but I feel like I'm not always as successful at it. He's never (aside from the thread-jacking ;)) an asshole and I know for a fact he's really taken the high road on a number of occasions. I've had the pleasure of meeting him once (my husband even spent the night with him before... don't ask, don't tell I say :P), so I speaketh the truth here.

1. Well...
For me, it would be IntravenousDemilo, my guy.

He won't see this now...he's in Saskatchewan right now, for the funeral of his brother.

But I admire IntravenousDemilo so much. He's intelligent, funny, sweet, kind. Yes, I admire him. And I respect him.

2. I'm very sorry for his loss.
:hug:
It's really nice to see the love you have for each other and I think everyone here knows he's certainly brilliant (i.e. Jeopardy winnings). :)

9. Please give him my condolences on the loss of his brother.
Even though we aren't really acquainted, I feel as though I "know" him after his appearances on Jeopardy.

4. I'd like to be half as gracious and kind as California Peggy.
She's a gem.

8. I love David
He's been out here to CA a couple of times, and we had a BLAST. When he goes off on a rant, I just crack up... I wish he would do that here once in awhile!

I still love to razz him about the only time he had DU posts deleted. He flamed someone who made fun of GOLF CLOTHES.

Everyone has an Achilles Heel. :P

11. To many to list. I know that's a cheap way out, but that's how it is....
...and I'm not sure I'd want to "be" like any specific DU'er, but there are a lot of good traits in many.

Oh, hell, let's have a group hug....:grouphug:
