Yep, big thanks to MINIclo too. Never met her but she set me straight on the "rules of engagement" on this forum when I got a little "off topic" and I respect her for that. And the fact that she agreed with me, well, that was all the better. :-)
Big thumbs up to MINIclo and NAM!!

Thanks for all you do Clo. Your presence & hard work around here is greatly appreciated & NAM just wouldn't be the same without you.

Although I hardly consider volunteerism a "job", I do highly appreciate MINIClo's contributions, enforcing the rules when they need to be enforced, and lending a hand to many, many people who have questions that need answering... questions that would otherwise not be answered, or would take much longer to get an answer. She resolves so many of these on a daily basis.

I try to moderate and help when I have time too... but the amount of time I have to dedicate to NAM, while by no means insignificant, pales in comparison to Clover's time investment.

Thanks Clo!

Hey, I didn't see this thread until now.

Clo is not simply a great shepherd of us misbehavers, she is also one extremely nice, warm, welcoming human.

Not long ago, in the "What if..." thread I suggested that if there were a NAM hall of fame COOPERation should be in it for all of his great work that he has given away to so many of us and that is seen all over NAM in so many sigs. I even considered posting a thread to that effect. The only thing that stopped me was knowing that others such as CLO are perhaps deserving of induction into such a Hall of fame first (how PC of me). Clo is, without a doubt, deserving of such an honor.

Thanks Clo.

Steve

I would issue a descending opinion, but right now she has me tied up in her basement and is threatening to withhold beer. What do you all think of her gentle kindness now, ha?

Blame Clo...

...for showing me how to post pictures.
Thank you for helping out with all my other really stoopid newbee questions.
And thanks for being a huge help in keeping NAM an awesome place to hang out.

I don't think anyone mentioned it, but she is a damn good cook too! There have been times I would have gone hungry had it not been for her fantastic culinary skills!

I have gotten to know Clover over the past few months and I have to say, there she is one of the kindest most considerate persons I have met. she is also all about MINIs and helping local clubs have meetings and even contriubutes food. She is also one heck of a bingo player.

Thankyou Clo.


I'll vote for you if you'll run for president!
You make a heck of a difference.

Yes, I could definitely go with that. We are very fortunate to have someone with heart, hospitality, wit, warmth, intelligence (and a paddle) like Clover. She (and people like her) truly make this place a home.

As I read her good writing, I can feel that she has a fine personality.

Clover has been a friend and mentor to me since my early days here on NAM. She is a very warm and gentle person, and hope to see her again in October, hint, hint

The last time I was in California, I found myself waiting to cross a very busy street. I had forgotten that they drive on the wrong side of the road in CA (compared to the rest of the states) and so I looked to the left for approaching traffic and should have looked to the right. You guessed it, a speeding car was bearing down on me even as I stepped into the street. I would have been a goner, but from out of nowhere came Clover. She executed a perfect (although ladylike) flying-drop-kick, knocking me out of harms way in the nick of time. She didn't stick around afterwards so I never got the chance to thank her, so I'll do it now. THANKS CLOVER!

LOL, Ran! (Are you sure it was Clover and not Catwoman? I confuse them sometimes (hint:Clo is the one with the paddle ))

A PI salute to Clover!

Eric, as I recall she was carrying a wicked looking paddle, and was headed in your direction with a look of grim determination on her face.

Yeah, I'm late on this one, so slap me around, but MINIClo rocks! She's the first MINI peep I ran across when I first got here, and still the best. Many runs over the years with her, and a few meals, too, and she's a first class dame, ya ask me. Way to go Clo!

BCNU,
Rob in Dago

How could I miss this thread?

Well, I have been rather scarce around these parts lately.

CLO ROCKS! No two ways about it.
