I guess I’m cynical sometimes, because I once saw a writer do a thank you article and I said to myself, “He doesn’t mean it. It’s a cheap way for him to make people feel like he really cares.”
But this year, I couldn’t wait for Thanksgiving so I’d have an excuse to say, “thank you” without feeling like a wuss for doing it. The more I get to know the people that this site attracts, the luckier I feel to be a part of it.
