I have been seeing the following signature block all over FlyerTalk, and have to admit that it raises some unsettling questions:
^ Vote for the HOT & SPICY Candidates ^
:-: Cholula & Socratesfor Talkboard :-:
^ Experience to Ensure our Future ^
Okay, I have no objection to the candidates. In fact, they are both in my own signature block, but I would like an explanation for:
-- Why is the ampersand colored in the first line and not in the second?
-- Why is there no space between "Socrates" and "for"?
-- Why are we not informed which of these is hot and which is spicy?
Enquiring minds want to know!

Mr. Dovster....the ampersand is colored in the first line and not in the second to show the flexibility of our candidates, their ability to react spontaneously to varying situations has they happen, and to look at each situation uniquely as it unfolds.
The lack of space just means the candidates should have picked a campaign manager who can type *smile*.
Regarding who is hot and who is spicy, I am glad to see someone raise this issue. I had anticipated this to be a debated issue both among the candidates and the people they hope to represent, and through this debate the candidates be able to differentiate themselves from the other candidates. So whom in your opinion is hot and who is spicy...discuss amoungst yourselves *giggle*

(Cholula, you have a wise campaign manager there. Follow her advice.)

So is this the Uberlounge of Delta Sky Miles Fourm?
If so. . .
1. Where is my membership card? Does it say lifetime membership on it or do we have to renew?
2. Free drinks?
3. Free Inernet?
4. Smiling faces picking up empty cups?
5. Do we only get to watch CNN?
6. I request other snacks than the normal cheese waffer cookies and apples.
If so. . .

iCorpRoadie, as long as you are already here, pull up a chair, pull out some booze, and join us in insulting Cholula.
Welcome -- and don't forget on your way out to vote for Cholula and Socrates. It will give me two friends to be nasty to on TalkBoard. (Right now, I am only nasty there to strangers.)

If one domestic airline would resist the urge to reduce everything to the lowest common denominator, those of us willing to pay extra $$$’s for increased service and amenities would have a choice. Right now we don’t.

You are already signed up for "Lifetime" membership, but we all know that at DL, the definition of "Lifetime" can change at a moment's notice..... No one at DL gives a Rat's ... about keeping promises.
On the other hand, the DL Mods usually try to keep their word

You can find the candidate's bios and their debates at http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/annou...uncementid=104
The voting isn't open yet, so no ballots are visible.
