In honor of the day allow me to say that I am thankful to all of you who drop by SEB regularly to see what hot air I’ve recently posted. Over the years I’ve established a number of friendships with people I’ve yet to actually meet in person because they took the time to read what I had to say and then yell at me in the comments about it. Thank you for making SEB more than just a blog, but a community. I’ve learned so much from you and I am ever so grateful for it.
