"That's the nicest thing that anyone's ever done for me..."
Someone gave me a heart! I honestly thought I was a bit under the radar on DU (mainly because I read *much* more often than I respond). Therefore, I'm a bit surprised, a bit curious and a tad validated for the week. :)

Someone made me feel good and I'd like to thank you!

(Cue song: Albert Finney and a cast of hundreds singing, "Thank You Very Much" from the '66 musical "Scrooge")

:loveya:

1. Wouldn't it be cool if
some very wealthy DUer bought hearts for everybody?

3. it's a groovy thing!
It woule be really cool for DU if someone did that. Nice to think there's a solid financial foundation based on generous progressives to keep DU around around for quite some time to come.

On the other hand, it would make me feel like a number ("66! Hey-- 66! Your heart's ready for pick-up), so I think that Im gonna pretend someone thinks I'm special and, "doggone it, people like me". :)

Either way, it's a groovy thing! :toast:

2. 95% of us are under the radar here.
We rarely get replies to our posts and we think nobody notices us. But at least one or two people usually do.

I thought for a long time that I was invisible because I have never made the Milestones lists. over 400 posts on a former ID and now as that many again on this one and not one mention. But a couple of people know me and talk to me, so I know I'm not completely under the radar.

I'm not the one that gave you the heart, but you're on my radar. :hug:
