I think I should win an award for my avatar. After all, I’m one of the few posters who has an avatar that doesn’t have anything Beatles related on it. I’m original *flips hair back and pulls arrogant face*

I thought your avatar was Yoko circa 1968.

There should be a “Most Knowledgeable” award (for Ron Nasty).

If there’s a “Thread of the year” award, I’d like to ask that “The Beatles arrive in New York City TODAY!!” be submitted for consideration. That one really took off! (Especially after Ahhh Girl took it to a whole new level)

GEORGE: In fact, The Detroit Sound. JOHN: In fact, yes. GEORGE: In fact, yeah. Tamla-Motown artists are our favorites. The Miracles. JOHN: We like Marvin Gaye. GEORGE: The Impressions PAUL & GEORGE: Mary Wells. GEORGE: The Exciters. RINGO: Chuck Jackson. JOHN: To name but eighty.

That’s probably my favorite topic ever, but I don’t think it fits any categories for voting. There aren’t many topics that threads can win.

Thanks,

I suggest a “Most Philanthropic Award” – which could go to people who start posts which seek support  things like oh, let’s say, food pantries.

Apropos of nothing, you might remember this kitten from last year, who was going to get a spritz for every member who didn’t vote in the awards.

(It didn’t happen. No puppies or kittens were harmed in the tallying of votes.)

 

That adorable kitten is now this lazy, full-grown cat. I should put her to work counting votes.

Because he wants you to a-hard-days-night-paul-4, and so does he a-hard-days-night-ringo-4, and him a-hard-days-night-george-2, and this guy a-hard-days-night-john-2, and especially the authoritative figures brian-epsteingeorge-martin. Look how cool voting is, stuart-sutcliffe!

But most importantly… Vote for her pattie-boyd_02_gif.
So…

I’ve not had a chance to give this any thought. Sorry. I really need to get around to it, hopefully Friday.
