::deb2world approaches the podium followed by a group of baby chicks::
To continue this with a few more questions, the little ones behind me would like to ask a question:
4deb) If you are elected who will be the 1st pet?
(on a side note,can I be the 1st pet’s agent, I will be willing to help sell the book he/she writes so that I, umm we, make a big profit. Plus there will be more press about the 1st pet than in the new SDMB president therefore in more need of an agent.)
5deb) How will you be selecting your cabinet?
6deb) I understand there has been much grafting as well as underhanded manuevering during this election, could you provide a complete accounting for how you have spent your campaign funds?
4deb) I have a german shepherd, a rottweiler, and a doberman. I guess whoever manages to last the longest without licking him or herself in the crotch will be chosen. The others will play his or her stunt doubles in “First Pet” movies.
5deb) I’m going to Home Depot to pick out cabinets with my lovely virtual wife Palmyra. Week after that we’re going to select finishes and carpeting for the bedroom.
6deb) I haven’t spent any money on this campaign. I am but a poor college student :cue audience “awwww”: with barely enough money to support my quizbowl habit :cue audience again:.
1 No, or surely we’d be on the same side. Ihave heard a few things about closests though…
2 A hybrid of a benevolant dictator and communistic anarchy where the responsibility is passed to the individual.
3 No censorship. No taxes. Lots of parties. Open minded approach to everything. Minimalist intervention. Big parties. Full accountability. Tittilating parties.
4 My koala. Just 'cos.
5 We’ll have a rotating cabinet where everyone gets a go. Before you get too excited about this I should point out that a cabinet member’s prime responsibility is to sit on either the dunking machine or pie booth where they’re held ‘accountable’ for government decisions. But it’s okay… we ALL get a turn remember?
6 Well actually I’ve spent all of $2 on dial-ups so far. I’m hoarding the rest for the celebration party (that - in the interest of fairness - will be held regardless of who wins). No buttons. No graft. I’m shamelessly politicking on my accent and novelty value.
I think there were some problems with the ballots in a southern region where, it’s rumored, one of the candidates has some familial connection. Then, too, there was a lot of confusion about polls, entrance or exit, I can’t remember, some voters calling fowl, while others calling for meat.
Well, I guess I am going to show how I must have organization in life, even to the point of being A-R. Once again I have been thinking, you know that burning smell that just permeated your nose, that was me. This idea is still half-baked, so suggestions are welcome or this one could be shot down.
Suggestion:
What we need is a poling place. That would be best done in another thread. The poling place would open at a times mutually agreed on by the candidates.
Rules:
Ballot stuffing is allowed.
The poling place must have a link back to this thread to be considered a legal poling place.
Poling will go on for 5 days, I figure that is usually the longest a thread’s interest will last. At that time, the amount of posts ummm votes the candidates have will determine the said winner.
Yes yes yess!! Fly monkeys, fly! May your mighty wings project the power of knowledge, and destroy those who oppose us! I shall call the artillery to soften up the target for you!
