Very sorry to hear that transam. Hope it comes back.

 

I have one waiting for a good home. Tell me what pussy you like.

 

I'm starting off a new scheme; adopt a pussy. Or if we are close I'll get it to you somehow.

You mean he is the best loser? 

That's what I've been saying - Quality, not quantity.

 

Best loser is better than worst winner.

 

And now the votes reflect that.

Transam is the most experienced loser in the competition for sure.

Could he not enter LOTY?

Momentarily, Baboon, momentarily!

Naam, I thought you are a gourmet.  Yes, seaweed crackers are divine.  Very good choice of Sipi's -- seaweed crackers with smoked salmon and blue cheese.  Pair with a good white wine.  Oh, wait a minute -- we're in Thailand.  This little "snack" would put a serious dent in the month's food budget.

Yeeah... Now I don't want to get on your wrong side, but I am afraid I may need to invoke the 'F' word...

[Scott]

Those votes are pretty transparent, Baboon.   The PM exchange included all the voters and they can see who responded with what vote.   They have the option of sending a PM outside the exchange and one did -- and that vote was for you.  

 

As for invoking the 'F' word, I can assure you I have been called much worse!! 

 

You can't really get on my wrong side -- I only have one side.

Is a candidate on a posting holiday still allowed to accrue votes?

I will... I will come out and say it in public, right now... And I GUARANTEE you will not be able to touch me for it...

Sir, this is a time for me to stand. To stand proud and erect...

And I think this is a good time to send you a Christmas Greeting.

^^

Thank God. I was at my wit's end for a decent witticism...

[Scott]

Oops, I have had to remove a photo.   That breaks a few rules and could cause us a bit of trouble.   We wouldn't want Thaivisa to get shut down until AFTER the election.

 

A candidate on a suspension could still accrue votes, but couldn't comment.  It has happened, by the way.   If they get banned, then they are out of the contest.   I believe that has happened as well, but with the exemplary lineup we have this year, I don't think we have to worry....well maybe a little with Baboon and Transam!

With respect, I somehow get the impression you aren't taking all this entirely seriously...

The parts I feel you are not taking seriously are those most precious to a man, put it that way...

There's a difference between standing proud and erect like a Guardsman, or proud and erect like a Bushman, or ploud and erect like a Chinese politician.  I'm worried people (including myself) may have misunderstood you
