A.Org awards
« on: December 20, 2004, 06:06:54 PM »
@moderators and viewers,
Hum,
After reading PMC`s touching Christmas speech, I was wondering if A.Org is going to have any award ceremonies? (Virtual awards of course - nothing `official`/or requiring work).

Like for most posts, best avatar, most impassive picture upload, scariest post etc…
Any other ideas…?
or nominations?

OK. Let's see. I would nominate:

Glaucus - for Political Prowess
Karlos - for Chemical Conquests
Cymric - for Quantum Quarkiness
Blobrana - for being Simply Celestial
Fluffy - for his avatar. (I always did like rabbit ... uh, rabbits :-D)
Wilse - for his Cutting-edge Commentary
PMC - for his Historical Hints
Tigger - for his Conservative Contrast
KennyR - for his Scientific Sidelights

ah, yes

X-Ray - for his Medical Missives

Cecilia:
for being hot-headed and short of words (but not short of meaning),
and being an artist :love:

Punkie:
for being a real sweetie

Wilse, Glaucus & Karlos:
for reminding me a gazillion times again why I am a leftist, and giving me a gazillion arguments (apart from my core beliefs/thoughts)

T-Bone & X-Ray:
for really challenging those arguments,

Whabang, PMC, Cyberus, Odin & Bloodline:
for being a sweetie, and always in for an easy chitchat :pint:

Blobrana:
for her subtle humour and eccentric way of, well, dealing with everything

BJJones:
for his wisdom and his (different, well, different than mine) approach of life

Yikes!

In no particular order:
Piru - For always having a say in technical debates.
Speel - Every community should have one!
BJ, Red, and T-bone - For giving evil capitalism a nice form.
Dan - For helping me turning every thread to be about Swedish local affairs.
Cecilia and Blobrana - For always remining us about the fact that men are boys with more expensive toys.
Odin and Cyberus - For being language fascists.
PMC and Adz - For helping me keeping the Friday-threads alive.
Karlos and Wilse - For the groaners.

and finally...

Bloodline - For the sock! :lol:

My nominations:

Most posts?

It's a flip between Whabang and Blobrana.  Hell, let's just award something to the pair of you...  You've both made me laugh my socks off and have been an education too.  

Best Avatar?

Karlos.  The anvil/poster/sock one still has me chuckling.  Blob's Spitfire avatar was good.  

Most impressive picture?

X-ray and his gatling gun.  I want one of those bolted to the front of my car, together with a gunsight on the dashboard...

Scariest Post?

Hmm, there's many.  I think Bloodline's frank admission about his sox life was quite scary, although Blob's contribution to my "Confidence" thread was a prophecy that thankfully did not come to pass.  The political ones are usually scary in some form or another but for slightly more serious reasons.

Best biking related avatar?

Me.

What? You mean it is not some kind of alien insect? :-D (Took me a couple of weeks to figure out what it was. Had to think back to my Schwinn 10 speed I had 25 years ago.)

Hehe!  I think it's rather cool.  I saw one in the bike shop and had to have a pair fitted to my new MTB.  They're made of machined alloy and have little fluid reservoirs mounted next to the brake levers...

@ PMC

Nope am by no means rich!

I do cover a fair distance, but when you're hurtling down the side of a mountain and the terrain is wet / gritty then rim brakes tend to be completely ineffective in comparison.

@PMC

If you do not mind my asking, what kind of bike do you have?  I grew up with Schwinns and I loved them.  I do not currently have a bike but have been considering getting a good mountain bike.  Can you make any suggestions?
