Congrats Van. Well deserved honor. I have a bad feeling that by the time the rest of the admins realize what has happened the takeover will be complete.

Yes, as happy as I am for him, I'm equally fearful. We'll know his true motives if he tries to enforce some new rules... Like "no Canadian jokes" or if we find that suddenly all of M-F's ads are for different brands of Canadian bacon or maple syrup.
Liquid and computers don't mix. It might seem simple, but we see an incredible amount of people post here about spills. Keep drinks and other liquids away from your expensive electronics!

Late in. Been away. You know what excuses are like anyways so ill just say congratulations Van. Ill watch my tongue i promise

Dont forget to use the Reputation System if someone has helped you out !!!
“I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom ….”― Edgar Allan Poe
