Well, if "thanks" to be told and used here then I would address that to
Lubuntu :D
Thanks to Lubuntu for giving me the great chance to meet great people
(users and team  members) and I'm so proud and glad to know you all and
deal with you all :)

You have changed lots of things in my Real Life, not just my Computer
(Virtual) life :)

Everyone is doing his/her best to give the best to this small community yet
very powerful and active. What a wonderful family :D
