Not sure where to post this, but I think it might be both my first post in the new fora and the first pool party in the new fora. And I know others usually throw the party, but dammit, getting to this point was long, hard, and not pretty, so I'm throwing my own.
Cause I finally got tenure!
Come on in and join me.
Congrats, Reener06!
<hands Reener06 the big Toblerone>
YAAAHHOO!
At last.
Very glad for you.
Would you like an antipasto plate, Cobb salad, or 《salad paysanne》to go with that sparkling cider in your goblet?
And the warm fluffy towels are coming off the fax machine now.
Congrats!
M.
Ooh, antipasto and then toblerone and the fizzy alcohol the whole time. Thank you.
Congratulations, Reener06!
<wheels in chocolate fountain with bowls of strawberries and raspberries>
Congratulations!
That's awesome! Congratulations!
Congratulations, Reener! May you enjoy your tenure and use it wisely.
Is this a tenure-specific pool party or are other promotions celebrated at this pool as well?
Congrats! The big bowl of fuzzy kittens for cuddling will be arriving soon.

Tell us what you're celebrating and we'll start a Clubhouse party for you, too!

Yay Reener!! I brought skewered goodies - and the grill will be hot enough to start cooking in just a minute.
Did the HE and the Immoral Porpoises migrate over here yet?

I hope so. Think of the havoc they'd wreak with no one to herd them.
I think the HE is under the towels on the fax machine, asleep.
Should we migrate the pool and the porpoises now? Or check to be sure they're not busy at someone else's party on the old thread, still?
Or....wait......I think there's a canal between the new and the old clubhouses....they're swimming this way now.
Perhaps an ability to bilocate goes along with being immoral.....

Congrats! A fine way to kick off the new fora!

After two consecutive promotion attempts, a successful grievance on the first attempt that took over a year to resolve, and a fired Dean, I will be officially promoted to Full September 1st. If this saga was a fiction novel, no one would believe it.
Awesome news!! Congratulations! Fizzy drinks for all!
Many congratulations Reener and Anonymath! Onward to bigger things!
A huge box of dark chocolate champagne truffles for all ....
Congratulations to Reener and Anonymath!
Sliding queso, spinach dip, hummus, chips and veggies, crab dip, and guacamole on the picnic table.
Congratulations! Cheers with all of the prosecco or sparkling water flavors of your dreams!
Surely, we're not all partied out! Who's up for a slide down the waterslide?

Indeed!
Warm towels coming up on the fax machine!
Just watch out that the Immoral porpoises don't come up behind you and, ...ooh!
Stop that!

Infinity pools have their hazards....
