    It's good to show appreciation to the Mods for helping keep XMarks on an even keel - my gosh what a nautical expression!

    But there are others who serve either in, or on the periphery of, the Great Hall, such as our doughty House Chairmen (or House Chairpersons) who celebrate our rank ups and our birthdays and add that little personal touch to our kilted proceedings.

    Surely they need to be celebrated too!

    I personally appreciate the work the mods do, and I know it's a pretty thankless task, so I think we should make a point of showing our appreciation, whether they appreciate it or not. (Little humor there, very little humor)

    Belly up, boys, first round is on me.

    Oh, you're not here. Guess I'll have to drink it myself.

    Hey, Jamie, have you thought about the logical acronym for Moderator Appreciation Day?


    M.A.D.

    With all of the stuff you guys have to put up with from the rest of us at times, I am surprised it's nor a descriptive title.

    June 28, 2008, sounds great! Any excuse to down a brew. I'll also be at the Boston Red Sox-Houston Astros game at Minute Maid Park, but I'll remember to toast the best moderators I've come across. Kidding aside, this is the most decent site because of the moderators. Where's the beer?

    As a moderator on several other forums, I can tell you they deserve it 365 days a year!
