It's my pleasure to announce Jackie as an administrator of AWADtalk. As a
member of this board, with her gentle approach she has helped to make this a
more friendly and pleasant place to hang around. In her new role she'll make
sure it continues to be an open community where everyone feels welcome to
contribute, communicate, and learn, without disrupting others.
Feel free to contact her if you have any concerns. Of course, I'll still be
available but you might get faster results with her.
Congratulations, Jackie!
Let me be the first to congratulate you Jackie, and to thank you Anu for your wonderful choice. Jackie, will surely make you proud.
Dear Jackie: a well deserved recognition. A sweep of my sombrero across my middle, and a deep bow.
And congratulations from me, too, dear Jackie. What will your duties be specifically?
Best regards and big hug 'n' kiss to you,
Wordwind
Well, this Southern lady is shocked, that's for sure. [gasp e] Thank you, Anu, for the tremendous trust you have placed in me [oof, tugging against her chains e].
Essentially, I don't
plan on doing much of anything. This is Anu's board. I have no right to impose my standards on anyone. Anything I do will be done with as careful a consideration as I am able to give, to the good of the board as a whole.
Dear Jackie: I doubt very much than any of us will regret your exercise of whatever power you now have, so long as it means you can delete potentially inflammatory posts. The board has been saddenly slow the past couple days. I hope that now it will pick up again.
The
coolest part is that you get your name in
red!
Does this mean I don't have to install the *gutters on my house anymore?
At least Anu chose the mostest - wonderfulest - bestest etc...
... don't tink I'm ganna lern ta spell just fer yew!
Well, anyone else would have probably raised more than a few eyebrows. I think that Jackie is probably the best person to administrate the Board, because she knows everyone and knows what the Board stands for.
Gooooo, Jackie!
Congratulations, Jackie!
I'm very glad, that you became the administrator.
Love,
Krzysztof
Jackie's name in
red?...my, my, my.
Congrats, my dear! What a delightful development! Kudos to you
and Anu!...he knew there was no one better to convey their sense of love and joy for this place he created.
Now...about that new opening for the Gutter Police position...
Your Happy Epeolatrist!
Congratulations, Jackie!
Remember,
Your Redness, I have always been your keen admirer and chief defender of all the things that you hold dear. The wisdom of
Anu is also in my tent. You are thoughtful, caring, balanced in thought, considerate, and I've noticed that you are always willing to help those in need and I have a couple of real spicy posts I'm trying to slip by the
Gutter Police and so...well, you know, drop me a PM when you get the chance.
-Milum.
PS: What kind of a-case-of-beer do you drink? Just wondering.
Jackie does look wonderful wearing red, doesn't she? [warm and cuddly -e]
The anointed ones all wear red!
Congratulations to Anu for making the perfect choice!
And to Jackie : all best wishes.
Aloha nui, Ku'uipo!!! (tons of love Sweetheart)
Jackie! You go girl! Congratulations on your administrative appointment; only goes to prove Anu is every bit as smart as we think he is
.
Love, nk
Congratulations Jackie on your new promotion. It's a shame you didn't get more warning - we could have had a really good party before you had to come over all sensible. Now who do we appeal to when we find you in the gutter?
Three cheers:
Hip, hip, HOORAY!
Hip, hip, HOORAY!
Hip, hip, HOORAY!
[much singing of For She's a Jolly Good Fellow-e]
Congratulations, gentle Jackie!
congratulation.. or is it condolences! Now coming to AWAD is work! well, i will try to make your job easy.
in my cube at work, i have a plaque to remind myself,
Everyone brings Joy to my work day.
Some do it when they arrive,
Others do it when they leave!
that said, i'm leaving this thread!
Congrats, Jackie, a well-deserved promotion. Thank you Anu for giving this position to such a worthy person.
Now you just need to replace that Carpal Tunnel with Gutter Police and it'll be official.
If Jackie needs a different title, it should be Fire Chief.
Allow me in all my newbiness to welcome Jackie's anointment as an administrator! Good on you!
Mike
Jackie: it's a pity it's come to the point where we even need an administrator, but I'm glad it's you.
Hi Jackie,
How are you holding up amidst these kudos and congratulations?
It is a wise choice from a wise man!
Essentially, I don't plan on doing much of anything. This is Anu's board. I have no right to impose my standards on anyone. Anything I do will be done with as careful a consideration as I am able to give, to the good of the board as a whole.
I like that very much!
I add my congratulations to those other members who have posted here. You've always been warm, welcoming and wordworthy (sorry DubDub)
... the messages in this thread show the level of respect and admiration for you across the Board. I'm glad to know you, Jackie!
Félicitation, Jackie! C'est formidable!
Jackie, my sweet! a red letter day for you and for all of us!
Congratulations to you on your promotion, and a hearty shake of the hand for Anu for his very wise decision.

a thousand thanks to you, wise Anu ~
and a thousand more to jackie for accepting!
Great move Anu, graceful wisdom Jackie.
Of course, it's all a plot to prove you're better red than us, isn't it?
you're better red than usAunt mav, how can you say that about someone who hates Shakespeare?
Seriously--thank you, everybody. I am now embarrassed to death--but grinning in spite of myself!
Oh, Jackie! This is wonderful ~ congratulerer med dagen!
Lapsing into Norwegian - Congratulations of the day!
Late, as ever, I hasten to add my $.02 :
As a colleague of mine used to say, LET HOSANNAS ROCK THE FLOOR !!.
Seriously, the only possible choice. Thanks, Anu.
Hurrah, Jackie! I'm not getting here much these days, but I'm glad I checked just now, to get this wonderful news.
It does seem you should get to replace your Carpal Tunnel with some other title, in honor of your exalted status.
Felicidades,
Chris

um.... unfortunate typo!! ;-)
EDIT: Hey, satin!!! good to see you! have you not been posting much, or have i just somehow missed them? either way, it's nice to hear your 'voice'!
Yes Hyla and Satin, I like that - the "Administratrix".
It sounds like And don't you forget it!Some things are sad, and then some things are sad but necessary -and true.
I wish we had Jackie the Administrator back in power. We still have a lot of members
who flame thoughtlessly far too often. We really need someone who can point out
the error of their ways. And if they persist in error, ban them and make it stick.
Bill -
Hear hear.
Let us go in peace to love and serve the board.
