I don’t think he’s officially president, though, since his name was spelled wrong in the thread title, so people didn’t know who they were voting for. ---

Congrats, dpr. Can I be an intern? 😉 [sorry, I had to say that. Then again, I could be in for a punishment, Holy Grail style…] ---

Oh wow. _sniff_ You really, really love me. _chokes back tears_ Well, 16 of you do… Well, 16 of you LIKE me… Hmmmm… maybe ‘tolerate’ is a better word… Thanks anyway. What swear words do I need to type to make it official? I’d like to thank all the people who voted for me, my esteemed competitors who - despie being on the opposite side of this political fence - remain cool people, the academy, my mum (that’s Mom for Americans), and everyone who posts here for contributing to such a wonderfully diverse and interesting place. (I’m working on an interim govenrment lost right now which I’ll post under its own thread shortly. Policies will also be contained there.) ---

Well, I guess it is now hell to the chief. You were gone long enough for civil unrest to start. There maybe a chicken coup soon with enough turkeys to have a Thanksgiving dinner. Many have fallen by the sick bed but they will hopefully arise to sluff off their klenex and do their duty to go where no SDMB has gone before. Who will have the honor of crowning you in the noggin? ---

Well Deb, I think either yourself - as you’ve proven to be efficient and impartial - or a mod such as Uncle Beer should get first swing at me. ---

I admit it - it was me!!! \*\* Good for him. I was just about to kick his OZ arse for misspelling “_Fawlty_”. All farty towels aside: congratulations, Prez dpr. What is your stance on Dutch immigrants? ---

So you’re going to be a spell-correcting mod huh? Mate, congratulations on the new title! I spend three days away moving and return to find my favourite dutch boy has been bitten by a radioactive spider and suddenly developed superpowers!! Who da dutch MAN? Yoo da dutch MAN! Immigration? Feh! We’re cyber mate. You can be anywhere, anytime. But if you come down under you better visit. ---

I would like to defer to a moderator since I believe they have a larger profane vocabulary and are better at swearing than I am. Hey oh great one, Coldfire you are quite able to swear him in. A few &\*&^ and ^$&#^ and the job is done. Any moderator will do since it is all for one and one for all. ---

**dpr** : I will restrict my spelling corrections to such classics as “Fawlty Towers” 😃 **deb2world** : I get to swear him in, eh? Cool! Alrighty, here goes: **PREZ DPR, YOU POOPIE HEAD - GET YOUR BUTT CHEEKS IN GEAR AND START, WELL, YOU KNOW, PRESIDING ALREADY!** Think that’ll get him in gear? ---
