President? We don't need no lousy steenking president! Anyway, why would I want to be president, when I'm already Dictator for Life? "Chop that wood! Harvest those crops! Come, Mariah my pet. Leave these worthless peons to their menial tasks. The Danbo will guard them well...." ------------- "And, has thou slain the Jabberwock? Come to my arms, my beamish boy! O frabjous day! Callooh!

Hehehehe. So lemme get this straight. We have a few possible scenarios to examine: A half clad Chippendale dancer popped out of Lake Michigan and tossed GDUB a rubber dildo. Now he professes Kingship of the Prog Archive Forum. Or An aged Liverpoolian hooker stubbles from a pub and gives Reed Lover a toasted tomato and sausage sandwhich (sarnie) and now he claims the right to the PAF Throne. Or A pencil necked English geek with a pocket protector hands Peter an Oxford Dictionary 345th Edition and he now owns the keys to the highway. Or Greg Lake accidentall tapped the shoulder of the woman kneeling before him with his bass guitar and she swallows the spunk of Ra and now leads the unholy prog alliance by the sack. Or A clown has killed off all competition and is the only possible candidate. Or Our Canadian Comrade has supreme firepower and is blessed in the eyes of the Siren. Or Slog the bunch and let each rule his own...... |

When the nature of man's existence goes through a period of change, many will be asking themselves "what now?". It is a permissible response to mourn a beloved past, or through one's actions attempt to maintain or resurrect the spirit of that which has passed. It is equally permissible to submit to the inevitability of change, and the novel possibilities which come to present themselves. For those to whom neither resistance or acceptance is an option, only one role remains: that of the outsider. - from the collected works of James Lee, chapter 11 ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/sollipsist/?chartstyle=kaonashi">

No, I'm not gone, though sometimes I do get fed up with the feuding, and the frequent seeming lack of concern for the feelings of others. (I have been guilty too....) Still, it is a sunny day now, and things always look better to me in the sober light of day, with my wife and cheerful kids awake as well....

I must admit that I dont see any feuding on this site, not serious stuff anyway. We have the odd obnoxious interloper but so far only one of them has stuck around. Peter, your mood swings worry me.And you seem to take too much offence on behalf of others. As for the old guard dwindling, I doubt if it is any different to any other forum.Max has just announced the 1000th member so some must be enjoying it!

This is doubtless obvious to most, but just to make sure that Philippe and all others understand: There is no election, there is to be no "president" (nor would I want that honour), and this thread has no real value beyond "entertainment." We have a competent moderator (Maani), who, while notably absent of late (perhaps he is away) is -- as far as I know -- still "at his post." ------------- "And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
