So I am awarded the equivilent of the Best Foriegn Film Oscar? Well, thanks...I think.
Now if I can just learn to stay out of the Manitoba threads and the icemakers forum. For there is where angels fear to tread and I run the risk of looking stupid.
I, too, would like to thank Gerry and Dallas for their work on this site...a site that is growing in impact and importance inside the USA. I withhold my gratitude, however, because I am certain that they are growing stupid-super-rich on this site. Facebook and Google ain't nothin'. CZ is where the big bucks are being made. (for those that do not know me, look up the word Facetious)
There is an underappreciated poster in BC who doesn't post near enough. Teeman has intelligence and insight. I wish he would share them more often. I really appreciate that McEwen and his team are around. As most users, I appreciate that Manitoba Legend helps drive the discussion along with J-Ho. While I occasionally think that ML comes on too strong, he'll come down if you call him on it.
I have finished, sent off and received approval for my second-ever United States Curling News column. If you want to read a little more of my humble wordsmithing, check the very back pages...where they belong. As their newest columnist, I will hold off the humor (humour) until they get to know me.
Best Foriegn Poster? I rented a tux and all I got was an empty Pez dispenser and the Foreign Poster Postie? Well, thank you...I think.

Ah Tuck, I too lament at the all to infrequent posts of the Teeman. However I think he is pre-occupied pouring copius amounts of Guiness and regalling young lassies with tales of his heroic Brier feats to post here on CZ. Mayhaps that will change in the future for the benefit of us all.
Meanwhile, rejoice in you Postie. It could have been worse, like the Golden Globes. You could have got the award for Best Supporting Sidekick in a Foreigh Language Documentary Comedy/Musical about Global Warming....
Which you would have had to share with Charlie Sheen (but hey, the after party would have been a blast!) |

That's True.. very good film
J-Ho brings people back together.. admirable for sure
But back to Tuck..
just wanted to say I have lurked in your US Threads and have seen some very good debate there.. absent of personal swipes and flames. You handle discord with humour and that is very good. Everyone wins there.
The Rivallry on some of the Canadian Threads ( sometimes ) isn't "fun" as it could be..
When someone dares to challenge one certain female curler they are set upon by a pack of wolves in a non humourous way..
It could improve and I can attest to that because I got into one of those battles and it turned me totally OFF CZ..for the first time since I started posting way back in about 1999.
Anyway.. Tuck you are a talented writer.. and please bring your wisdom into the north anytime..
Go J-Ho.. your diplomacy is MUCH appreciated..

Never underestimate the thrill of being able to say "Postie award winner" Tuck.
I know what you mean about a "Foreign" award. I've never forgiven the Academy for snubbing The Sweet Hereafter and Atom Egoyan!

PLEASE!!! Reid Carruthers a "Legend"? He has a lot to prove in the next few decades to even get that recognition. I love watching Jeff and Jon and Steve and they will enter my books of legends as they fade away from the game. But as for Reid, he still has alot to do to get into the books of "Legends".
Congrats team MB and good luck at the worlds. Im sure it will be interesting and will do well. I enjoy watching Jeff curl and have loved the 96 and 99 years. Especially 99 since I was there at the Worlds to watch him play. |

I'd like to second the award to Man Legend who is the MVP of this site. I have fought tooth and nail to try and fight the sexism and Put Downs of the women.( other than JJ)
The difference between Me and Legend is that he doesn't get ruffled by anything.
He just keeps coming back and he Has listened to not making up offensive names for people. Good for you Legend.. your respect for women is back
I would just , seriously like to take my Hat off to Team Stoughton who won the Brier, Fair and Sqaure. They set their Target and made it.
They seem to have found that "middle of the Team" strength again. Steve Gould has been Mr. Consistency every game Every Year..what a Rock!
Reid Carruthers.. what more can you say about a guy who gets a knee op. then teaches himself to curl all over. He stayed cool and dependable all Brier.
Jon Mead.. and Jeff.. Awesome!!
I have seen Jeff curl for years now and he has alwasys been the smartest Skip on the Ice.
He pulled off the winners all week and that winning smile is back again.
He has restored that Manitoba Supremacy in Men's Curling.
Well done Manitoba.. You will be a real Pleasure to watch in Regina! |

I heard there was Pez being handed out here
but I see mine was given away.
J-Ho, I don't actually have anyone on Ignore,
but since you gave my bleeping Pez away,
I may have to reconsider.
jk
No worries, I have my own...

So which fake poster are you? Excellant post and picture!
(Edit due to less than nimble fingers.)
Those who put the good pirate Captain on their ignore list, do so at their great peril. |

What, CaptMorgan, no picture? My god, is my faith in your ability to produce the absolutely most appropriate picture misplaced? Come on, give us a picture! |

ahem, I'd like to thank all the folks behind the scenes who made this award possible. Yes, you all know who you are... and J-ho can forward the Pez-pak via CZ PM to me.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I feel a Charlie Sheen moment coming on with several ladies from the Adult Entertainment Industry...
You are toast Jamcan. |

Earth still obstructs my view of Venus.
Another classic. I do hope that some people develop a sense of humour (british or eh) or humor (some guy named webster, apparently couldn't stand the ou version. But what do I know, he was slightly before my time.) I have immensely enjoyed the vast majority of postings on the various Brier threads, including those where I was the lonely minority (like 1).
Keep it up J-Ho, you are one of the princes of forums. |

Hey J-HO. I think you need to give Gerry a special PEZ for going against his home province, and predicting a Stoughton victory in the Brier.
Could not have been an easy pick. Well done.

Of a special Pez, and a bottle of cheap red wine goes to J-HO
You touch intellegently on every subject on this forum, and while you get peeved once in a while I have never once witnessed you being an ass. That is commendable in a place where being anonomous gives one carte blanche to act out.
As for me. Thank you Dallas and Gerry for giving me a place to spew. And all you dudes who have me on ignore. Really, you should take me off. I am not THAT bad! (Guess you didn't read that, did you!)
Totally agree with the rest of your picks.
I second that - J-Ho always is a true gentleman poster...doesn't make me cackle quite like ML does but always manages to come out on top even when heckled by trolls. |
