As anyone who knows knows, I'm not much on blogging (and not very good at it). But, as I reach my two year anniversary here at TV.com, I feel a strong need to thank some wonderful folks and great friends who have helped me to stay on board and make it to this point. As they each know, all too well, I can ask way too many questions (i.e. I can be a real pain in the ...). The short notes next to their names fail to do them justice and certainly don't explain how much their friendship and help have meant to me. There are many walls, mine fields and secret password mysteries to confound newbies here at TVdotcomland. These folks, however, are some of the beacons and bridges. I only wish I knew better how to express my profound gratitude and thanks to each one of them .,. 
As those four fabulous lads from Liverpool sang so long ago : I get by with a little help from my friends.

A simply wonderful Canadian lady who encouraged an often confused and discouraged newbie, showing him more patience than he ever could've expected.

A warm and friendly English person (I love everything English) who has magical powers and shares his time and knowledge with mere mortals like me.

Another wonderful English person (did I mention ...) who has patiently initiated me into the mysteries of the eternal guide wars, and so very much more.

A fellow sci fi freak and baseball fan who trusted my work, allowed me to grow and helped me out with great tips and pointers, answering many questions along the way.

A wondrous Texas neighbor who went way beyond the call and showed great patience in helping me to get Shadowfax (my computer) to play well with TV.com's server when I first became an editor.

My first and best-est friend encountered here at TV.com (and we all know one can never have enough real friends to support you and keep you in line). We are learning the ropes together ...
