I would like to apologize for the tone of my post in this thread. While I still maintain the feelings behind it, there was certainly a better way to express them, and I should have found it. Again, I apologize. ---

Don’t worry Falc. I know you wouldn’t be intentionally mean to anyone _hugs_. As for Dpr and Nym: congratulations 🙂 I hope you both manage to find in each other what you have been so actively searching for enjoy. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by ExTank \* > **But WTF is up with this “President of the Straight Dope” stuff? AFAIK, there is only one acknowledged leader, one omniscient God of The Straight Dope[sub]R[/sub].** Nice poem, but despite the founding father[sub]R[/sub], there was indeed an election, with electioneering, bribery, corruption, and debates…here is [the aftermath government-creating thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=47402) (& Nym was made dpr’s PA, so it was kind of inevitable in the best tradition of presidents ;)), the [announcement of the winner](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=47017) & [the actual voting thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=46141) itself - any more research will have to be undertaken by modern day political historians with more time on their hands than I have… Anyway, congrats & hugs to dpr & nym, glad for the good news/progress report - I can’t make it that day for some reason…I’m still working on the combination teleporter/time machine, but when it’s ready, shall I send you two an order form? ---

Sorry to come so late to the party… I am so happy that the two of you are so happy! I do SO wish that I could be there in person, but I am sending you all my love. And…can someone hug my **dpr** for me? Maybe about a hundred times? AND… > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by dropzone \* > > We’ve all said things we regretted saying (out loud) later. We’ve all hit the [Submit] button a microsecond too soon. We’ve all wished we could take back posts or emails or snail mails or whatever. \*\* Well said, honey.
