Though I prefer beer to cats ANY day of the week, I nominate DaffyGrl's thread: Seriously Ill Pets http://www.americasdebate.com/forums/index...showtopic=11746

I'm not a cat-fancier, but some of the posts were so tear-jerking they almost made me cry in my

lordhelmet's Your handle: What's the Story?

I nominate Cadman's What Civil Rights are you willing to give up? It didn't get a whole lot of responses, but a good question nonetheless.

Good news..., ...and trepidation

This topic moved me in many ways.

A member asked for advice on a very personal matter. People responded as though they were next-door neighbors. Every post I read--every single one--showed compassion and sincerity. Thoughtful insight was given by all.

To everyone who posted, I tip my hat. And to Mudge, I wish you all the best.
