No Dave, not another Religious rambling.

My epiphany for the day whilst wondering about the future employment of one of our OFC Brothers was that his displayed name is not pronounced Hizz-ner as I thought, but it is his-On-er (His Honor, the Mayor)!

Must be my local dialect that impedes me from fully enjoying the language we Mer-kins use!

Here are some early Election Results for those now wondering:

Converse election Results (early)

Go Craig!

Congrats, Yerroner. Now I guess my letter on your official stationery is worth twice as much!

World peace will come when the President of the U.S.A. will sit down with his/her favorite Ovation, singing an acoustic version of I Can Change the World, or Wonderful tonight by Eric Clapton.
What a rush

"sounds like payola to me"

I voted 14 times and I haven't seen a penny yet. Or even a free pair of shoes.

Congrats on the win.

In the small town where I grew up, there were two kinds of people, those who were 'part of the problem' (as evidenced by their complaining loudly and frequently at council meetings about whatever they perceived as 'the problem') and those who the council appointed to chair committee's and panels to 'look into solving the problem.' That generally solved 'the problem.'

Just something to think about. ;)

Congrats, Craig. It would've been a drag to have to play "Welcome to My Nightmare". :)
