I agree that Sigforum is very unique.
I'd be up for a meeting and tacos!

Dear kind and benevolent soul of the SIGForum community, AKA, tatortodd.

I hope this humble message finds you in the highest of spirits! With a heart full of gratitude, I must humbly request your generous consideration in bestowing upon me the prestigious Karma needed to obtain a cherished SIGForum Challenge Coin, please.

If it pleases you, dear members, I implore you to take a moment to recognize the humor and wit in this lighthearted plea, as I toss my hat into the ring for this remarkable token of camaraderie. Your Karma, like a gleaming treasure, shall undoubtedly enhance my standing within the community.

With a twinkle in my eye and a grin on my face, I beseech you, oh great keepers of Karma, to cast your benevolent votes my way. For the prospect of being honored with this esteemed coin fills my heart with joy and glee.

Thank you ever so much for your kind attention to this cheeky request. Your indulgence in this matter would be met with immeasurable delight. May the winds of fortune forever blow in your favor, and may your Karma cup overfloweth with abundance.

With utmost gratitude and a wink of appreciation,

the cooker of the beans, AKA, Beancooker.

Wow! That's a lot of posts. I found this forum when I was researching a P229 in .40 S&W. Ended up buying a CPO from Ordnance Outsellers. Anyone else remember them? Then I ended up running about 1,100 rounds through it over a weekend during an LFI class. Met and "met" so many people here over the years.

Thank you for the generous karma. I'd like to be included, please.

Not insulted. It's actually not far off how I got the nickname.

I was just a few months into my oil & gas career, and several of my coworkers and I went on a business trip to visit two businesses we had large purchase orders with. They were very funny group of people so we're having a grand ole time at dinner. My mentor, Jim, was on the trip and is shaped like Homer Simpson and has a similar affinity for donuts so we called him Homer Jimson. My meal arrives and my baked potato is bigger than Homer Jimson's baked potato.

Green with envy he asks, "Are you going to eat your tator, Todd?"

He then bursts out laughing at the Tator Todd (only one laughing at this point). He continued laughing until his face turned purple and tears are coming out of his eyes. At this point everyone is laughing.

The nickname TatorTodd stuck. Although, for a brief period they called me mashed Tator after I got in a car wreck. Big Grin
