Submitted by JtC on Sun, 01/07/2024 - 10:21am
Nine years behind us and heading into our tenth.
Let's hope we make it through the next year with all the rumblings about big changes to the internet.
A big thank you to everyone!

Thanks for all you do for c99!
seems like only yesterday
thick and thin
you've been there for us!
(for the vinos among us)
truth is considered foreign influence, world peace is a threat to national security
Prost QMS...
it's been a pleasure!
It's hard to find words
to thank you enough. I don't know where I'd be without this place. It's just such a blessing to read the words of humane and reasonable people each day. Thank you so much.
You just did, Linda...
Thank you for hanging with us!
We're gonna have a good time

Don't forget...
that lonely middle finger! Thanks my dear.
It's been a great 9 years, JtC
So, so much better than that other place.
Thanks for all your hard work.
Neither Russia nor China is our enemy.
Neither Iran nor Venezuela are threatening America.

I take a look...
at that other place once, maybe twice a year, that's enough for me.
Thanks for all that you do, e1.
Prost!
Israel genocide trial at U.N. would implicate U.S.

Unlike the ICC, Israel and the U.S. are signatures.
It maybe a wise move...
taking it to the ICJ. Israel should be worried, as should the US.
I would imagine that when power shifts globally in the future, and I believe it will, there'll be a lot of nervous nellies, especially in the land of the exceptional.
You and I have had our ups and downs over the years g, but I want to thank you for hanging in there with us. I appreciate it.

Happy Birthday C99!
Could not thank you enough JtC! Quite the rag-tag band of enlightened open minds you have built!

edit to add: THANKS TO ALL THE CONTRIBUTORS THAT MAKE IT GREAT!

Thanks dysto...
yep, the contributors make this place what it is, and that very much includes yourself, sir.
Thanks old buddy, and prost!
You are such a firecracker yourself, dystopian!
Thank you for being there.

You don't look a day over 9. Happy birthday c99 and thank you, JtC, for all you do.
I'm great at multi-tasking. I can waste time, be unproductive, and procrastinate all at the same time.
Thank you Sp...
and thank you for the great Friday Photo series, it's one of my favorites.
Prost, my friend!
Thank you Social
for your steady contribution, visually, personally and funnily.

This ain't no dress rehearsal!

I'll take that...
as snark, or did you forget what site you're on.
Anyway, thanks for the laughs.
Thank you
for all that you've done, and thanks to everyone here at C99. My world is a better place because of it.
Thanks snode...
I always look forward to your commentary, and shaking my head in agreement.
Thanks amigo.
Great Job, JtC
Good luck as you move into your 10th year. Thanks for all of your efforts.

J&H!
glad you stopped by, old friend.
I thought things were weird nine years ago when this site started up but, this political stuff today, it's HST weird.
Hope to see more of you!
Happy Anniversary everyone!
I’m sure I don’t have to tell you how much I appreciate this juke joint. I’m so glad you volunteered to build it and continue to maintain it with a lot of heart and dedication. I know there were moments when it was at least as challenging as raising a kid.
It’s always been a pleasure to be here. It’s a very special place, and I’m guessing it is quite exceptional in the digital sphere. It’s informative, respectful, and fun.
Thank you, and otc, and all the wonderful people here.

Appreciate the opportunity to join and
interact with knowledgeable, curious and evolving individuals. It has enriched my life. May we continue for many more. JtC - Thanks for your time and skills at keeping us together.
Still yourself, deep water can absorb many disturbances with minimal reaction.

Curious and evolving
is clearly descriptive of this little corner of the universe.
Whenever I hear or read the word 'curious' I think of the German word for it - 'neugierig'. The literal translation is 'greedy for the new'.
Thank you soe for all that you contribute.
Not my way
to raise a glass, but I'll light a fat one
for us all and(metaphorically) pass it around.
Glad to see the hair regrown that you pulled
out dealing with my 'ilk', been trying to
get better, or as its been said, directionality correct
Thanks for the touchstone on reality lo these nine years
May we all have many more.

Thank you.
I find comfort in the open minded and hearted news, commentary and music. It remains a touchstone of stability and sanity as well as a needed reminder that I am not alone out here. So many of my "progressive" friends are lost in Putin is Hitler thinking. No matter what I offer up, it is dismissed, derisively. So thank you.
Late to the thread but...
Thanks! I love this place. Here's to a great 10th year!

Thank you for the cheers, and all that you contribute to interesting information and brightening spirits.
