I told a few people about this in Tennessee. I was originally going to list everyone, and include kind words, but I'm super lazy. I realized that would take a very long time to type due to all the amazing members here who have been there for me over the years. I will post a list of everyone I'm automatically entering at some point. Colleen and I will be welcoming another baby girl into the world in August, and are super excited. I would like to share my joy with this contest. Nominate a forum member and explain why you decided to enter them (kind words only please). This is ment to keep and spread happiness, there is enough crap in the world, of course funny sarcasm is welcome. Each entry will be assigned a number and put in a random number generator on a vher night to be determined, the chosen one will receive a little something from me. Thank you all again for putting up with my crap for so many years. Let the games begin!

Well.
You certainly have something really special to keep your mind off the news.
Congratulations to both of you, much happiness for all of you..
Best of all possible future happiness for the little robusto.
Hope he or she grows up to be a mighty toro. (sorry, couldn't help myself)0 -
I nominate Chris @Yakster . He is always welcoming newbies, that deserve to be welcomed, and positively contributes to most threads. And he makes me laugh. Keep it up Yak!2

@Echambers
As the current lottery commissioner, I appreciate the effort that Eric put in as the previous commissioner towards making this forum great.Join us on Zoom vHerf (Meeting # 2619860114 Password vHerf2020 )3 -
I nominate @avengethis because he's one of my two favorite culinary experts.4

I nominate @peter4jc because he always has a kind word to say even while being critical and he roasts some excellent coffee and he opens his home to us once a year and he's very witty and funny and I miss that he's not on vherf as often as he used to be... now I'm getting misty
I know, You're a big dog and I'm on the list.

I nominate @IndustMech
He's one of my best friends on this forum. He's always going out of his way to give me rides to and from various herfs with everyone without asking for anything in return. He always seems shocked when I try and thank him, while modestly saying it's fine and not a big deal, even though he's waking up before the sun rises to go to work the next day some of the time. We have some great conversations during those rides or when it's just us on the vherf, and (for some reason) he seems curious as to what my thoughts are on the subject, while asking me questions to draw me out when I'd normally be quiet. He's funny but he's a very deep person who has great perspective on lots of different things. Here's to you John, thanks for being you.6 -
Thanks, Calvin

Great contest Patrick and congrats on #2. I'll jump in here with a nominee when I can think of something 'kind' to say about somebody.A little dirt never hurt6

I don't have anything nice to say about anyone so I'll just nominate Steve cause he is my favorite puto."I drink a great deal. I sleep a little, and I smoke cigar after cigar. That is why I am in two-hundred-percent form."

Congrats to you and Colleen @Patrickbrick!!!
I’d like to nominate @84CJ7. Mark was the first to reach out to me, and got me up to speed with a newsletter right away. He was also very generous with his knowledge, and welcoming to my newb questions. He’s always supportive of the new members, and is an asset to this forum. Thank you, Mark!Keep your gratitude higher than your expectations.#f**kyourhashtags1 -

First off congratulations on the great news. I think this is part of what makes this forum a great place to spend some time!
I want to nominate a few people that have been welcoming, shared info with me on PM’s, and made some great trades. @Cigarsonist @BKDog and @Sketch6995. I appreciate the welcome each of you have given!2 -

I have so many favorites but I would nominate two I haven’t seen yet that should be on here @Rhamlin (Disco Ricky) and @CharlieHeis (too tall) the reason is these two like most of the regular VHerf crew are solid guys I’ve spent plenty of hours with on the Vherf making this life a bit more palatable.Cigars were made to be smoked, whiskey was made to be drank and women were made to be loved. The only thing I try to age is myself.3

I nominate @CalvinAndHobo
He has proven to be a great botl in the short time he has been a member here.
If I had a daughter he is the guy I would be happy to see her involved with.
P.S. I hope you and Colleen have a healthy baby and that she looks like her mom.Friends don't let good friends smoke cheap cigars.4 -
Congratulations Patrick.
There are so many genuinely good people on this forum to pick on. Even the irascible posts are presented with good humor. I nominate @jd50ae. Hope you have some 5 Vegas Gold to send him if he wins.2 -
