OK, I am essentially quite derivative. Borrow the snog idea but change it.

See, I was thinking of someone for a snog of the week, but he is a Roman Catholic priest, and until I've had my coffee I just can't get whipped into enough of a frenzy to suggest THAT!!!! But a salute-- a big ole "Good On Ya" from Catters? Yeah! I bet we can all think of people we'd like to convey THAT to from time to time!

So for the balance of October, please join me in saluting Mbo's good friend, Father Tom, who has actually DONE what so many of us would like to have been able to do for our dear friend Matthew (Mbo)... become a close enough friend and mentor and older brother, and a kind of father, to make a bridge into 3-D friendships for our dear one. (Oh I know any of us COULD have done it, if we had been THERE where Matt IS. But Father Tom DID it.)

Yup. The story is at:

So Matt, please convey on my behalf, to the good Father, my salute, and crisply. GOOD ON YA, Father Tom! And a rousing Mudcat cheer!
