I recently dropped my cable and HBO, glad I will still be able to watch some content.

she was always around in the middle of the night on the east coast. I have told her repeatedly that I appreciate her so here's another "Way to go" girlfriend. I'm on the west coast now so I don't 'see' her as often. She's sleeping when I'm awake now.

About the video so we can decide whether we are interested. I rarely will watch a video if I do not know what it is about.

I'd miss much of what's going on and much of the fun from late-night shows without her spectacular contributions.

Of you. I also worked nights for many years and that's the special quality that DU has, day or night, I'm never alone and I learn so much from every one of you, both of which are badly needed during these unprecedented stressful times. Thank you so much...

Of what most of us can’t get and for that, I anticipate your posts and even tell others to just wait because you’ll have the video! Thanks for being so dependable! Seriously, thank you so much 🙏

You probably don't know, but EarlG made me host of the video forums when we switched to DU.4, likely because of my tenure here (2003) and I was lucky to have my DU friend, TexasTowelie, who also posts lots of videos, to help me keep up. We both have our niche. So I try to keep up with the most important ones (like Lawrence O'Donnell) to keep all of us informed. Thanks so much!
