Question #11.

Back to serious questions. Who has had the most influence on you personally, good or bad, and how will that influence help you as President?

I would have to say my children as a collective group :-) As the father of 4 they have a way of teaching you patience, self control, the true meaning of joy how to appreciate the small things and so many other emotions I won't go into ;-) With STORM2K being like an extended family all of these fall into play everyday :-)

With S2K in mind, what is your budgetary priority and why?

As long as the Marshall-Chad ticket budget includes the hiring and outfitting of BAWDY SERVING WENCHES, I'm satisfied! :D

Have you been to the bar lately Billl? We havea whole platoon of them waiting for you! ;-) We even have a few Chippendales for the Ladies :-)

Jara, our priority has always been the site itself. Early on it was to make sure we had a stable home to host the board. Now we try to use the donations to immprove the site with things like the Ham Weather module whick brought all of the local forecast info . We've also used some money for special situations. I will admit that we doubled the staff's salaries this year! 2 x 0 still equals 0 though :-)

My family and my parents. The ability they give to go out and do anything I set my mind to do I can accomplish. As President I think this will help me in setting and reaching goals here at Storm2k and making it the best place on the internet for weather and family atmosphere.

Storm2k budgetary means have been donated funds from the admin and its gracious members. In the past year we have added the hamweather module and also had to pay for the overage during hurricane season. We were blessed with the donation by a member for the server space are now residing at...with this the funds we have can be used for continually improvement of the site and special events. Our great staff continues to work for free - donating their valuable time which is an asset to the board in so many ways more than monteary.

The storm2k members have always rose to the occasion and donate funds when they have been needed and that there shows the kinds of membership base we have - the best members on the Net.

Vote Patricia for President.

Question #12.

This will be a 2 day question to give time for a great answer.

Your first duty as President will be to name the S2K National Song and the National Animal. Please include a reason for your choice.

I have to go with "They Call the Wind Mariah" It's not well known but's it's a great fit. Talks about American Indian Names for the weather. It comes from a Clint Eastwood movie called "Paint Your Wagon" It was also the source of my oldest daughter's middle name :-) As far as the animal...a dog of course! breed Golden Retreiver for picking up things after the storm LOL

The storm2k Song is Addicted. Once you stay for awhile and get to know everyone - you can't leave!!!

The animal is a deer because we never sit still - we don't stay the same, always shedding old things and getting new ideas and elements. Lighting quick speed on service too. That's why I think the Deer should be the storm2k animal.

I would have voted for a duck. :)

Storm2K is where we go when the weather is fowl, when we want to quack up, when we want to get down, when we're ruffled and need a place to migrate, and where we go when we need advice from the flock.

Question #13.

What would you like your Presidential legacy to be? Feel free to enlist the advice of former President Bill Clinton.

If I responded to the second half of your question I'd have to ban myself :-)


I best legacy iI could leave is for STORM2K to continue to grow and flourish. In spite of the naysayers, for S2K to grow while maintaining it's current atmosphere is all I could ever ask for :-)

I wasn't afraid to try new things and to improve Storm2k! Also, I was strong enough to stand up to the trolls and keep them out.

Bill Clinton's famous words - not necessary my thoughts but to answer Jara's questions - BUT I DIDN'T INHALE :-)
