Thumbs up Let's celebrate!

Ladies and Gentlemen I just noticed that Slipdigit is now a moderator and also that we are now over 2000 members ( and probably 150-200 active, correct me if I'm wrong) , so Congrats to Slip and to all the Forum team and let's celebrate!

Slipdigit would like to reply but he's too busy removing the tar and feathers after the Moderator Initiation Ceremony......

I am dumbfounded!

Let's take a serious look at this.

Mussolini is moderator twice, that must be the consolation prize for arguably being the ugliest guy in the forum (see his latest pics).

Otto, well, Otto is the forum owner so that's all right, there had to be a perk somewhere.

Peppy takes all the graphics chores so he had to be paid off somehow. I don't really care about these two as the epiphany of God's Wrath, the Panzer Penguin keeps them on a tight leash.

Kai is acceptable too, as a neuro surgeon he is or should be qualified to keep the rest of the moderator team in sanity, even if I sometimes have doubts about his performance.

Martin spends most of his time tavelling about Europe and the rest tinkering with his Mossie, so he has his hands full elsewhere, thankfully.

Now Slipdigit's nomination has really taken me aback! The only explanation I can see is he is being used as a pawn in a high stakes game against the Texan lobby take over! He's an American but not a Texan, a kind of a Colin Powell in a GWBush administration, nor here nor there, just a hole plugger! Nothing better for a guys's self-esteem, yes sir!

Now what I have to do is find a way to hack the forum and install The Red Rabbi as a moderator too. Ahhh, revenge is in sight!

Before the operation perhaps someone may have had some doubts but never afterwards...and I´m not gonna tell my secret! Ah this should be one of those Monty Python jokes really.

Alabama, Texas , not exactly the same, it's more like Rebs Vs. Cowboys. Anyway I'm glad Slip got the moderation status. When he recovers from his hang over he"ll tell us about his coronation party.

Here, here now. I agree. Guess more Texans will have to join up to support the cause.

But congratulations to Jeff for beating us to it.

A hole plugger?!. I have you know I got it based fully on my encyclopedic knowledge of the years 1933-1946 and those dead presidents I sent to Otto didn't hurt any, either.

To be far, my Rogue Gallery pic is more recent and much more amiable! That other picture, well, thats what happens when your brain gets fried after cycling from London to Rome during a heat spell that killed a number of old folks! I like to think that I am a 2-timing-Moderator because I am just plain old AWESOME!

And Slip is still recovering from the humility of dressing up as Britney Spears - prior to the Tar-and-Feathers incident (which occurred to cover up the hideous sight of him as Britney Spears).
