The Aussie
Apr 9th 2009, 10:05 AM
As an active member of many forums over the years, I naturally became the world's top poster and hero of several forums.
It was decided by VB Bulletin that I should receive the top award for Cool Posts, but being in Perth presented a problem. Most of the forum action was in the Eastern Australian states and they were geographically closest to the US. Not only that but the bigger cities were better fixed to handle this important event.
It was decided that the award ceremony would be held in Melbourne at the Melbourne Concert Hall.
All expenses were paid for me to attend the investiture.
On the night, I was presented to the Governor General of Australia who represented the Queen and the award was bestowed.
Shortly after I was carried shoulder high through the admiring crowd, out the front doors and down St Kilda Road.
Music for the evening was by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and I would like to show a short video clip.
I look forward to being the new member here. Thank you for having me.
