kannot Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 It would be so much more interesting if the lead contenders, NancyL, Costas2008 and Jingthing decided to participate in the conversation. This is a call out to you guys ... drop on by, stay a while. David, I have a better suggestion. Lets have a televised debate, so millions of people can appreciate and decide who to vote for. I'm sure, I'll come out as a star. As a controller of the debate, I nominate Mr Neverdie and Mr Toad. Agree? Sounds a Sterling Idea. Costas, go rustle up Nancy and JT Let's get it started ... . All too boring lets liven it up by them being naked and one of them holding a live hand grenade with the pin pulled out and playing pass the parcel..................it is Christmas so party games are in order!

Chao Lao Beach Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Costas, what is TGAU standing for ? I promise, I will establish Greek as the official TVF language, all posts in other languages will be deleted. I promise a free box of Kleenex tissues to all cheated, abused by their Thai wives or over stayers on this forum. I promise a free TGAU (previously tested by Mr Soutpeel) to every member to enhance your pleasure in life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyL Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) Sorry, sorry I haven't had much time today to do campaigning. Busy day. First, I tried to get numbers together for the CM Expats Club holiday party -- still time to let me know if you're coming for your discounted price for tickets! Then responded to emails from people interested in retiring to Chiang Mai, answering questions about what it's like to live here. Then trotted thru Thai Visa and made a few response -- maybe you missed this one: http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/785606-when-a-farang-dies-in-thailand-what-is-the-procedure-for-burial/ Sorry, there were posts a little more pressing than campaigning. A quick consult with a foreigner in Suan Dok hospital who was a victim of a purse snatching. You know, the snatchers don't care if you're over age 60, fall to the ground and break a few ribs when they snatch your bag. Normally, I don't get involved in crimes against tourists, but she's a new arrival who planned to retire here and thought it was a safe place to live. Needless to say, she's a little freaked out. Then Hubby and I went to an inter-city Rotary meeting with leaders from the Thai Rotary clubs where we discussed ways to help the refugee camps along the border with Burma. Oh and we went out to Huag Tung Tao reservoir and water some trees we'd planted a few weeks ago. After that Hubby went home to take a nap and I went to a church service at All Saints Chiang Mai where I did one of the readings of the lessons for their Christmas service. It was a beautiful service with many traditional carols. I'm glad to see this little congregation really taking off. I got home about 7 pm -- just in time to fix dinner for Hubby. But now he's gone to bed and I'm all yours! Edited December 21, 2014 by NancyL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokie36 Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 Ive had it with this nonsense! I'm writing-in a vote for soutpeel ~! theres no way the choices should be so limited! I would certainly have voted for Soutpeel, he has a strong following in The Digital Do As You Likey community. Not sure who he has endorsed though - I think he fell out with Costas after the Zuma incident. Anyone who buys me dinner at Zuma will win the contest.I can sense it. Was I supposed to buy you dinner in order to get on the list?Or did you leave me off for some other reason? I didn't see the gift vouchers for Paragon in my PM box....?

smokie36 Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 I'm voting for David now I don't want to influence things but I did hear David is a better batsman than Costas. Jingthing looks great in shoulder pads too....but not as good as NancyL. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NancyL Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=755222514554327&set=vb.527897983953449&type=2&theater Did you see the video? We had to overcome a lot of doubters just to get the event "off the ground" so to speak. I can't tell you how many people asked if we were going to injure people in dropping golf balls out of a hot air balloon. Duh, no. They don't bounce. They do this type of fund-raising event in the U.S. all time time, only they drop the golf balls from a helicopter -- much higher and potentially more dangerous. What was a little surprise was that we had some kids from one of the Rotary project standing by to retrieve the balls. They had been briefed and were told they were getting an award for each ball they retrieved and returned. What we hadn't counted on were the other random, unmarked kids standing around. (Like David48's kids, maybe?) So, the moment the balls hit the ground, there was a giant swarm of kids snatching them, like they were chocolates or something. The Rotary club had to re-imburse Gymkhana club for 64 lost golf balls. Don't worry, the Rotary club honchos guarded the potentially winning balls close to the hole, but the others further away just kind of disappeared. Edit: Is this what someone said when he mentioned that he voted for UG because he doesn't like to read an entire chapter of my life when he reads my posts?

EyesWideOpen Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) The list of potential candidates for some reason does not include my name. Not sure if that is an oversight, or my style of acerbic humor is a bit over the top. So since I cannot vote for myself, guess I will have to cast my vote for AnotherOneAmerican who pretty much mirrors my point of view in most things..... And on a side note, instead of being a popularity contest, poster of the year should be the result of the mathematical ratio of posts to likes. Meaning when you post your thoughts, how many people like what you wrote. I am currently at 117 %, meaning the likes for my posts exceed the number of my posts.... Current leader of NancyL is at 49%....... :-) Wow just saw Costas is at 235 % . Guess I need to dial down my bitter but insightful humor. :-) Edited December 21, 2014 by EyesWideOpen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geronimo Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 A campaign update ........ Neverdie is already demanding a recount, Weegee is still on the fence, UlyssesG is quietly smug. Jingthing is in intellectual ICU (Nancy is organising a blood transfusion), Frollywolly is over the moon and Mr. Toad is unemployed. Dancealot is at the disco, Somrisonphimai is at the hairdressers and Transam is under the hood of a Ford Wildtrak trying to retrieve his 3/4 spanner. The text size downsizing is deliberate and reflects the unimportance of the said candidates. Costas is singing and throwing plates at the fireplace while David48 is preparing to unleash his twins on the rest of the gang! Nancy? She is deciding what to wear at the inauguration ceremony!!!!!! More to follow ........ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
