While the people I listed ARE my friends, they ARE the people I admire the most. Also, a majority of the people I listed are ones i've met and come very close to over the 4 years or so i've been here.

As I said in my post, I admire everyone here for SOME reason or another.

Being that we all love our animals - fur, featherd, scaled, etc.. and we've got the hearts to take care of them and love them, makes everyone admirable here.
