My many thanks to each of you!

[Romann]

Today has and will forever be remembered as the best New Year I have ever had the pleasure of having and I truly mean that from the very depths of my heart. From the very start of my day after sleeping in for a change, I woke up to the most thoughtful emails, posts on the MC and phone calls from truly special people that I'm blessed to have in my life. Many of these fine people I wouldn't have come to know without discovering Daddy Reviews just over a year ago from a client who kindly submitted my very first review here. For that, I will always have a special place in my heart for you SJguy - a very honorable man and all around great guy. Love ya.

 

That said, I would like to give special recognition to the creator of what all this has come to be, Hooboy and his lasting legacy that all of us enjoy today. I tip my hat and bow my head to Daddy who through the kindness of his heart and the countless hours spent maintaining the MC for everyone to enjoy and find resource, he has truly devoted many years of his life all for the sake of his readers and posters. Always know that your work is appreciated and may Karma bestow you with good fortune now and forever. I know for myself that without Daddy's Review I would sincerely have a void in my life and wouldn't had met some very special people whom have become clients of mine but also trusted friends that I've turned to numerous times for advice and support.

 

Thank you to Cooper, Berry and Deej for watching over Daddy's baby and keeping us naughty boys (YIKES - I have two check marks next to my name on the chalk board) in line and on the continued path of peace as we're a close community of quite colorful and bright people! Often and myself included tend to forget about those who are continually working behind the scenes ensuring compliance and providing essential tasks that help make the forum what it is today and will be in the future. Thank you again Cooper, Barry andDeej as your work doesn't go unnoticed.

 

Congratulations to Tyger Hudson, AndrewD and David-SF. While I have never met Tyger, I've heard only the highest accolades from many clients and escorts which in my book speaks very highly of him and I hope to one day meet in the near future. I have had the utmost pleasure of meeting bothAndrewD and David-SF who are both bright stars in the sky and in the hearts and minds of many on and off the MC. Special thanks to David-SF whom I have enjoyed many wonderful evenings with that were rich with conversation and sincere advice, both personal and professional. You've been a wonderful mentor but more importantly, a good friend. Bravo!

 

For all the posters out there who have contributed to the continued success of this site, each of you bring unique insight and passion to oh so many topics. Without all of us posting and speaking our minds with healthy debate and the occasional playground brawl, this site wouldn't be the well respected site that is is now. Speaking of posters and their continued support, shall each of us tip our hats to Prince Lucky and his 10k+ posts and dedication to making the MC all it can be.

 

To my beloved Bart whom I cannot say enough about. You've been a one of my greatest highlights since escorting and truly someone I consider a very close friend and one of my greatest supporters. When I've been at my highest points, he's been there cheering me on and when I've been at my lowest, his kind emails and phone calls touched me in many ways. The Client and Escort relationship has always been an interesting beast but when a true friendship encompasses the relationship, each of us is blessed with someone who will walk not in front of or behind us but instead walk next to us through life. Bart, you're a gem, a wonderful person and friend now and forever! Always remember friend, "The Bear is watching...!"

 

Today has indeed been a wonderful experience and an honor that I will always hold close to my heart! Thank you EVERYONE for your kind words and reviews. I truly am touched, honored but also humbled with this award. I only hope that I can carry the torch that many escorts before me with fine talents have - you're all great mentors. There are MANY mighty fine escorts on this site with talents unique to them and for that, you're all special and I have much respect for each of you, what you do and the smiles you create each day.

 

As NYTomcat said to me in a very thoughtful congratulatory phone conversation earlier today, I went from the guy who had an auto litter cat box malfunction that slung unmentionables to Escort of the Year in less than 24 hours. Not a bad day indeed!

 

May everyone have a year of personal growth, good fortune and laughs with friends, family and loved ones. Be good to one another and our community will thrive in the memory of Hooboy!

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Wow

 

A star is born! Congratulations again! What a nice speech! Better than Obama's~ Congratulations to other escorts and runner ups! I would like to extend my gratitude to escorts who are not mentioned on the Daddy's list. You are all appreciated and I wish you all the best. Your silent hard work will not go unnoticed by your clients! Cheers to you all.

It's classy of Romann to take time out on a day when he can bask in a certain glory to think of others. I remember the day I met him, and he seemed so shy. I didn't realize at the time that I was in the presence of the escort of the year.

 

Last year I met DavidSF and AndrewD, and the year before I met Tyger. It is a pleasure to have met these guys. In my case, they were all nonsexual meetings, and I credit them all for taking the time for encounters like that.

 

I also met the 2007 Escort of the Year, Juan Vancouver, who I think was the classiest escort ever to post here, and that's saying a lot. I did get to see him naked though, so maybe there is a bias there!

[NYTomcat]

As always Romann you are correct that the true greatness of this site is the fantastic diversity of escorts, clients and ideas that it represents (that and the one and only Greatness- we luv ya)). To all of the escorts who take the time to educate, communicate and just plain converse on the site. My thanks to all of you and my sincere belief you are all escorts of the year.

Thank YOU Romann

 

Romann - What a well written and thought out post. I remember I was a bit hesitant when I first hired you not seeing a face pic. But I was pleasantly pleased when we met. You are a very nice guy. The second time you were in town and hearing of my financial difficulties took me out to lunch and even picked up the tab. Not only that but provided me with pleasant conversation. For this I feel I can call you a friend. One that I am very glad I met.

Classy words from a guy with obviously a great heart. Kudos to you and the guys for the recognition, well deserved, for the joy you bring into your client's lives. Happy New Year, indeed. Wish you the continued best.

When you take a good looking guy that has good love making skills, you have an escort for which clients are pleased. When you take a good looking guy with good lovemaking skills that is a good hearted and caring person, you have an escort that everyone loves. You have Romann.

 

You are a very good role model. I strive to be Romannesque.

 

Happy New Year my well beloved friend!

[whipped guy]

Great posting!

 

...You have Romann. You are a very good role model. I strive to be Romannesque...

trooper... One of the best postings so far this year... as it not only embodies the utmost in sincerity but does so with just the right touch of gentle wit that is of the most urbane variety!

 

So let's all try to be somewhat "Romannesque"!
