arturo and roberto: Now you're both back. From space. Oh, well. Just remember, Ferrets eat rabbits & rats.

rudi/udir & Catman: Was there some kind of symbolism in the fact that the box of chocolates had a cat on the box-top? Or was mine the only one that had that? If they were all the same, congratulations for sub-liminally recognizing an outstanding contributor.

I'm glad everyone who won this emmett award
is enjoying your prizes!

Philforest: There was a bit of symbolism in
the chocolates considering the co-chair of
the OMNI committee of a feline nature! I too
have received the cat tongue chocolates (which are practically gone and are very good!) The kitty on front looks like my dear Cleo, sadly no longer with us.

Auturo: You may be surprised to know that yes, I do have a life beyond this forum. I have many, many friends, a career, many interests, cats, travel... basically a full
and varied life. I resent you snipping back at me for just expressing MY view. It's just
we shouldn't clutter the boards with babble.
Sorry if I offended you and everyone else!
CATMAN

arturo tankful for fredum in usa.

arturo/roberto: you did, indeed, have the chance to see your name imprinted on the very first award/trophy - but together with nancy-emmeth you did let that chance pass-by (by not giving the committee your address to post the award - the committee promissed full privacy of your address).

but I promiss, that on our next committee-meeting, I will propose to my (only) committee-co-member CatMan, that you should be declared "endangered Species" and that nobody will be allowed to delete you from this forum.

We would not only miss your entries but also CatMan's police-threats.

arturo not here when eward namd. arturo going bac to spac stayshun to werk. kittiman policio two mucho.

I arrived home today to find my lovely ENR award. Yippee!! Thanks Rudi and Catman.

Got 'em! I've never tasted anything quite like that. There definitely IS a difference.

Thankyouthankyouthankyou all.

Had some relative over for Sunday lunch. Showed them the goodies, told them all about Rudi, Catman, and all you other great folk, then gave everyone a sample. It was the hit of the day and everyone says "Hi and Thank You."

And thank you again, from me.
