Default I would like to...

Nominate Randy (paradisepb) as a member of the HWFM. I believe he has shown all the true qualities of a fellow turtle.(Or lack of)

I am not sure what would be the best nickname but I think this would hinge on his ability to give us one of those famous embarrassing moments on track to work with.

Of course I realize my opinion is not worth much but that has never stopped me from giving it anyway.

Well don't everyone jump in at once. We don't want to seem too anxious.

I was considering it - but I have a slow keyboard.. Is there a nomination post he made I could mull over?

I'll get to it...

Nope. It was my idea. Just figured he was due.

Glad I could provide a venue for all of you to relieve yourselves.

Is there something we should be considering? Let the man post his qualifications, whatever that may mean. (The Basset Hound farted...I'm out of here!)

I have done an extensive search on this person - and his posts.. His handle is not paradisepb - but rather - paradisenb - hence the inversion of a vowel for a non-vowel, which made me rather slow to reply and a vowel injection takes a long time to digress/ingest and figure out... Actually - I have no idea of what a vowel is - or whether it was lost, injected interjected, misplaced, replaced, sup-placed or otherwise inverted, converted, diverted, or well...??

However - and not withstanding...

Based on his latest posts:

https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...04#post5413904

https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...24#post5413324

https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...66#post5411766

https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...28#post5411628

I would say - based on this non statistical sample - or sample, or a statistic (new math?) - I say he needs to fax some beer to the gurus at HWFM Racing. If he is able to fax - not pay tax, or is lax, or sends his fax to the max - I say we consider an application from paradisenb..

However - I won't vote for paradisepb - who doesn't exist. Yet. Or maybe he does? If he does - he is just slow to post - as he's not registered... And if paradisepb is that slow - he gets my vote over paradisenb - who has already posted...

Fax me beer - I need some after writing this post...

I was thinking Pebble Beach as opposed to Newport Beach.
My bad.

Jester,

I'm assuming that this is the post that gave you the impression that he might be turtle material:

Speed is just as fast as before. I only have lack of speed issues on the track.
While the inability to reboot his computer certainly shows some level of incompetence, he seems concerned about his slowness and may in-fact be trying to go faster. Not sure about this one.

Presuming I read my admin e-mail - and try to assist folks... Last night - I had well over 300 e-mails. If I inadvertently helped paradisenb - I apologize.

I say bring him into the fold. Anyone who could screw up an "EM" which I probably ignored - and he didn't do a re-boot - and depended on me to get him running..??

Well - they are Turtle material...

If he's an AOL user - he certainly shows some level of incompetence - above most others...

I vote "Yea"....

You obviously haven't spent time around Bassets although he probably reallly is "blaming the dog". The two of them in a room together? Surely Lethal.
