A Paronomaniac is among us!
« on: May 16, 2007, 10:54:49 AM »
Despite her brief boycott of the forum, Technomc has actually edged ahead of 3B to become the first forumite to reach our (currently) highest level. Congratulations T! I don't know how you manage to contribute so many gems to the forum at the same time as sweeping up the honours on the Chi scoreboard. (And still find time to potter around in those fetching wellies.)

Anyhow, this puts the onus on me to inaugurate a new title, to give you something to aspire to. I'll do that before long, but the new grade will come in at 500 posts, so that should give me a little breathing space.

Isn't she amazing? I've been racking my brains and my dictionaries, Alan, without much success.
So far, my only suggestions are as follows;
Tachyphrasiac....one with abnormally rapid speech
Transvolator......One who flies higher than normal
Thymoleptist.....one who is psychologically energising.

None of them seem quite appropriate....I was trying to find something beginning with T as a tribute to the first person to reach the highest level. I think I'd better leave it to you, Oh GAGL, to decide!

"Queen of the Forum"

T - that titanic tower of talking,
who lets her fingers do the walking,
takes the thoughts from her brain
on a speeding bullet train
that she rides from Great Britain to Auckland!

I hadn't noticed..and will check it out any minute now.....
i do like the idea of being a transvolator though...
Anyway...
I would like to thank my mother...and of course my darling children without whose neglect this accolade would not have been possible.
I would also like to thank my neiaghbours who have had to put up with my screaming throughout the night for over a year now as i try to find the uncommon common words....
.....my agent...my dustbinmen and the lady at the launderette....
 Lastly ...I give this award back to you all..because without the competition and the forum..and all my new found 'friends' none of this would have been possible....
I LOVE YOU ALL....
