During this whole affair, what with so many of us helping you and your family however we can, I have been constantly reminded of the real meaning of one word: Ubuntu. What affects one of us, affects all of us. I am what I am because of who we all are.

Peace, and long life.

I am SO GLAD that I missed that episode so I could see it for the first time here! Hope you and the ladies are getting better every day.

Please accept our gifts and know that they are merely earthly goods. We deserve no reward and desire only your happiness.

LOL@Leonard!!!

But seriously, dude. Shucks. You don’t have to thank us. It’s nice, don’t get us wrong, but you don’t. Just consider it like … humanity’s nice side coming out for once.

Cheers,

We understand and are glad since we couldn’t be there we could help in some way.

Believe me, being a pay it forward kinda gal myself (who’s recovering from a recent rough patch) thanking the ones that helped you through never seems enough.

WooHoo! Great clip. I’m never sure whether I identify more with Sheldon or Leonard. I would say Leonard, but my wife would say Sheldon….

Stay strong!

One of the contributions I made to you is I won’t be moving to the U.P.

Nice clip! You made me smile and laugh out loud. Like you, I’m awful at accepting things being given to me.

although I never found myself in such a perilous situation, it is good to know that people are indeed willing to help as much as they can.

and the proof that you’re a good citizen is measured in the extreme ammount of stuff that is being given to your family, all that without anything in return.

were you a hermit in your community, its response would be a lot less.

so, be proud to be a well known, do good and good things will come to you!

Maybe this year, if your going to Ohio Linuxfest, we can actually catch up this year and chat! Wanted to last year but you were really busy with the keynote prep and whatnot. Hope to see you there this year!

Paying it forward, it whatever way you deem worthy, is the essence of service, hon.

I’m proud to call you guys my friends.
