Gracious as usual brother, Funky, I expect nothing else from such a great person. You are truly unique and deserve the position. ... Alright folks, it's getting a little deep in here. TigerLaw ... Look what you started. Sure enough Funky is a good guy, and he'll do quite well as an ALJ. But I doubt he walks on water ... yet. ... Then again, I could be wrong. (By the way Funky, if you truly can tread water with the soles of your feet, I'd like some lessons.) ht That's apostasy! Please don't blame us for ht's heresy, and forgive him if you can, your grand imperial Funkiness!

Please forgive my momentary lapse. I know the true Funky and I know him to be forgiving and benevolent. ht

The comment about Tiger is also amusing.

Gotta love how pretty much all that happens on TOB is that they talk about this one.

Gotta love how pretty much all that happens on TOB is that they talk about this one. It's almost always to bash this Board. Their praise of Funky may be unprecedented. At the very least nothing like that has occurred recently.

Now, now bro, let's not let this make your head too big to fit in the training room at FC. A mere mention on TOB is not worth much compared to the accolades given to you here. Just keep an even keel funky and be your normal happy-go-lucky self and things will go fine. If you let all the accolades and press go to your head, it might explode.

Not hard to stay humble when you know it's undeserved.
Let's shift attention to all our other board members. All told, there are some truly excellent folks and all hugely qualified individuals that are joining the alj ranks. Stepping back and taking all self interest out except as a career odarite who wants the best for the agency, I couldn't be happier.
Now, selection committee and Bob, let's round out this 90 with some more great picks and move right on into second cert. I've got some great recommendations if any of the powers that matter want to hear em.

Just stepping out of my self-imposed exile (as I wait for the second cert to be revealed) to congratulate Funky. His dedication, smarts, and wit have been evident on this board ever since the day I signed up, over a year ago, and I always look forward to hearing his input on any topic. The day one of my posts got a "like" from Funky was one of the highlights of my time here.
If I'm eventually hired off the 2nd cert, I'll consider myself very lucky -- but with Funky, his getting the robe is more than just luck. He earned it, plain and simple. Hope to be able to serve alongside you someday, and best of luck in training!

*** The day one of my posts got a "like" from Funky was one of the highlights of my time here. *** Holy smokes! Funky, the vision I am now getting is like there's a bunch of Deadheads following you so they can partake in your jam sessions. Come to think of it there's a striking resemblance between your avatar and Jerry Garcia. So, Funky, who's your daddy? ht

If following funky were like following the Dead, folks would quit their jobs, move across the country, wear the "uniform," partake in mind-altering substances together. Oh, weird.

I thought we were already doing that... quit job, check. Move, check. Uniform, check. Baglady's concoctions, check. So where's the difference?

I'm sensing someone after the Funkmeister's post on the Board, now that he will be adorned in the latest robe fashions. I'm lovin it Miz. Quite a pithy rejoinder. There's a lot of koolaid being drunk here ... not to mention that whole drink of the day thing. ... Speaking of which ... wonder if there is a well know alocoholic beverage that has koolaid as one of its ingredients? Hmmmm.
