New Sheriff in town !

[ad4mg]

We would like to announce that Richard, W4RLR, has been added to the staff as a moderator. Richard is generally well liked around here, and is fair in his opinions, traits that will surely work against him ... :lol:

Actually, we hope to stuff him full of cookies now that we have him trapped, and see if we can get him to lean a little to the left. ;)

I'm happy to have Richard as part of the staff, and look forward to working with him.


<ha! fooled you guys on that one, like we actually do anything around here ...> Did he say work? :hahano:

[ki4itv]

I'm sure Richard will be a great choice and shows considerable bravery on the part of IOMH with him being a Florida Panhandler and all.



Congratulations Richard!

My guess is he'll need some time to rest after being tapped by the whole moderation staff. :lol:

[KC2UGV]

Make sure you tape his ass to the chair so he doesn't run for the woods after a week!

Just kidding! Congrats (I think) to Richard :)


PS Richard: RUN! RUN LIKE HELL!

[W5RB]

Bravo !

[PA5COR]

Congrats Richard, hope the rest of the team is just as exited ;)

[WØTKX]

Yea, wait a couple of hours after he tries those cookies... :rofl:

[W3WN]

Better you than me, pal.

Congratulations and condolences, as appropriate.

And thanks, but no cookies for me, I'm going to get yelled at enough by the doctor on Thursday over my sugar levels.

[KJ6BSO]

No! Tell me it's not true! Richard, gone over to the other side and now just another running dog lackey of the Island ruling class? Alas!

Just kidding. Congrats, Richard.

Ron for site admin! Ron for site admin!

As an aside, in another life I helped run a forum where everyone was a moderator. Good times, especially on Friday nights, with everyone drinking. It was a race to see who was the last man standing, much like a season of Survivor on crack.

1. Remember that old allegedly Chinese proverb that I mentioned in the Jets/Steelers thread.
2. Remember that Groucho Marx quote regarding club membership.

[N8YX]

Do you believe in God?
Also, do you believe in dog?

[kc7jty]

I've been known to get into trouble with people who have God bugs up their @ss.

[W4RLR]

I believe in God, and there are three dogs in my household, so I guess I must believe in dog, too.
