Congratulations, bookowlie! :text-yeahthat: <psst. pretend like it's pointing at Rachel_jacks post. doh!>

Plus I always get a giggle out of your tagline...

I have only been around for about 2 months, but you (and @zeldas_lullaby of course) are two names that I am very familiar with due to your insightful presence around the forums. Allow modesty to take a vacation and bask in the glory that you have achieved. :)
What a nice thing to say! Thank you. :)

Thanks! I was going to change my tagline for the Halloween season, but I'll let you giggle for a few more days. :lol:

Wait a second. Why did we give BookOwlie five stars, when this website operates on a 4-star system? :o

I knew something seemed off about that! DATo, you got some 'splaining to do!! :lol:

HSimone - Honestly, it's a strange feeling. It's wonderful to be recognized and appreciated by my peers. Still, I think we all deserve appreciation for the positive contributions to this site. So.....everyone, stand up and take a bow. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

@Zelda ... well if I knew I was going to run into you today I would have worn a nicer shirt.

Splanation below:

I just felt it would be imp-owl-sable to give Owlie anything less than 5 stars (*****). But rules are rules so I will deduct one star and add a meteor in its stead (****^) symbolic of BookOwlie's meteoric and esteemed ascent in the estimation of our website patrons.
