Valt....Congradulations pal...it was well deserved! Although it was a nice and entertaining trip report to read, it was even better to hang with you during this trip report!

How's Thailand treating you......I'm waiting for your posts.....

Man!......you guys have voted me #1 for the last four competitions in a row! Thanks!

"I am Not Worthy"......but needless to say, I sincerely appreciate all the support!

It goes without say......that many other "outstanding" trip reports have been produced on this board lately from members such as.... (Epi, Turf doc, Jaguar, Valterreekian, Merlin..and many others...).

And of course, we have seen some "awesome" pictures lately..(to name a few...Moondog, Bahtman, Walkingdude, Cubanut, Dave the Rave and many others...)

Continue the good life fellows....and thanks again for the votes!

Thanks to whoever submitted my Rio report for the August competition. However, after looking at the other reports, I think I am seriously outclassed this time around

Wow! I stunned! I thought several other reports were far better than mine, but thanks for your votes and support!

Val

Congratulations, Val, I thought your report was GREAT.

Wow, I'm honored. I guess I'll have to finish the last couple of chapters....

Thank you to all who appreciated the time and effort Val and I put into our reports, and as well as to everyone else who posts information here. I've certainly benefited from it, and am happy to give back.

As I already indicated on BOTH of your reports in the past, they were Outstanding!

Congratulations!

When a trip report, such as Hunterman's award winning report, creates an interest within you to want to visit that country....it deserves a Reward!

And Val's reports.....need I say anymore? Obviously a person who takes great pride in reporting to us! I feel like I'm reading a Time magazine article!

It's truly nice to see us honor those that deserve it the most! Bravo! Of course, we cannot overlook the other trip reports, as they deserve honorable mention as while.

And Val...it appears our paths continue to grow farther away! We continue to end up on the opposite sides of the world! (You go to Rio, then I head to Thailand) OR you go to Thailand...then I want to head to Colombia!) Boy....for two guys who claim to be best of friends....we sure know how to avoid each other! LOL!

Nevertheless....I'm sure our paths will cross next year Pal!

Hunterman....it looks like out paths will cross next Saturday when you hit Pattaya with Denny and Blumpy! Look forward to meeting all of you guys!

Continue the good life fellows....

Priew, you will enjoy meeting Hunterman. I met him (too briefly, IMHO) for an early dinner in BKK and he is a class act. Enjoy our time hanging with him, he's good people.

Hunterman, you too will enjoy the meeting. Priew is a great guy with an eye for real talent and the moves to bring the hotties into the fold.

You guys should really enjoy Pattaya as between the two of you, you probably know about all there is to know about it.
Enjoy, and shag a hottie for me!

Carpe' Diem!

Val

I clicked on the above link but there is no sign of who the winners are-- only a list of nominees. Is there an error of some sort ?

I missed a couple steps. The winners are displayed properly now.
