All Hail Erika!
« on: December 05, 2007, 10:16:23 AM »
The newest, and judging by her gender, greatest super-caller of them all.

Though, truth to tell, and certainly not to denigrate Erika's stellar contributions to the show and the board, I haven't heard many FOT calls that didn't also qualify them to be super-callers.

Thank you all for a fabulous first year in the FOT community. I will find some way to reward you, one and all.

Thanks Dave! No need for any hailing, though. I just like to call!

And don't expect me to clean up the hut. I'm a proud slob and I intend to stay that way.

Just swirl the beer cans until you find one that's not quite empty, and join the party!

Just make sure there aren't any cigarette butts in it.

I drank a swig of butt-beer once.  No fun!

Erika, being from Baltimore you need to strive to be "The Wire" of supercallers. By that I mean your calls need to get tied up in bureaucracy and you should be drunk.

I just reached the point in the show where Tom confers supercaller status on you, erika.  Your reaction was lovely:  you were so sincerely surprised and so sincerely thrilled. 

Congratulations, madam:  you deserve your title.  I'm jealous, of course, but am I willing to put in the time and expose myself to the terrors of calling week after week?  No, I am not.  You are, and you deserve to be honored for it.

For that matter, so do you, Laurie, despite your Laurie money (I loved it when Tom used that phrase to describe serious wealth).  Your charming giggle and your pluck alone should qualify you.

And, while I'm at it, Swiss, if your stamina let you call more, you'd deserve to be promoted, too.

All you accomplished lady callers:  I tip my hat to you.  You set a standard I cannot hope to attain.  Kudos.

Thank you so much Sarah I appreciate the kind words! It was a total shock and I'm still SO happy about it!
