BEP is wonderful. Thank you admin, for installiing him. He's great.

Great Job, BEP!

He is bad, and is out of controll! He blocks the posts that don't follow the guildlines, he banneds people who break rules! WE HAVE TO STOP HIM ;)

He is great, he is the best thing to happen to this board sence me!!!!! ;D lol.

Ok, ok for real, he is doing a great job.

What a totally unbiased poll.

Is this supposed to be a joke or something?

~AAAA

AAAAmember,

Thank you for your vote.

He's the best!  Keep up the good work!

As I have already told him, I feel he is like the pastor of this forum. Without him, it would not be the same.

And I think he deserves a raise.
Love to you Tom.  Roy.

AAAAmember,

Thank you for your vote.

ROFL! Sorry - that one caught me off-guard.....  :-X

Shouldn't it be more like, "HOW is BEP doing as a moderator?"

   ;D

Sapphire W34P0N --

It should be, except if you look closely, you'll realize that this poll is...

...


.......MADE FOR MINDLESS MORONS.

~AAAA

...Which is why I didn't vote.

.......MADE FOR MINDLESS MORONS.
__________________________________________________

To me it was a way to say thank you to Tom for many things, not just as a moderator. And to let Admin know how much we appreciate him.

From a mindless moron.

Logic would state that an individual who replies to a poll, whether taking active part therein or no, would be labeled the same as the other participants involved thereto.  Welcome to the "Mindless Morons Fellowship" AAAA!  :D

WOW! You can get paid for doing this???

"M.M.F." - isn't that the sound you make when BEP hits you with an Oklahoma Howdy?


Don't get me wrong - love those Howdys!  :)

LOL.......
       From one mindless moron to all the other mindless morons.......YES YES BEP is doing a very very good job :D
.
OK what is that job now, I'm thinking hard with the one brain cell I have. I guess some one should have drew a picture for me...........UMMMMMHHHH, oh man I breakin out in a sweat.   ??? OK I"m getting a mental picture now......
      BEP's opens a can of absolute truths, swallows in one large adamapples gulp, takes the bad guy wraps him arround a flap pole .........and Olive Oil kisses him on the cheek  :-*......no thats surely not the right picture...... :P OK try again........WWW....what is that wrestling or world wide web???? OK i kant thik noe moor.

      My heart and prayers and this one minded brain cell thanks you for all your hard work.

      BEP.;
    Thanks for all the good work you are doing.

     AAAA;
    If you realy feel that way why do you stay?
   

lol, BEP wishs. I’m sure Royo got paid for that little comment, though... ;)

Great job Bep.  keep up the good work.

The pay is a reward in heaven one day. And if I keep uplifting BEP, I expect a raise also.

Yep!  ;)

Oklahoma Howdy to All,

Thanks for all of the nice compliments. However, all of you make Christians Unite work in sharing friendship, fellowship, and Love in Christ. I enjoy working for you.

In Christ,
Tom

And, this is what I think.....

Ray did a darn good job. I think Ray should now try his hand at picking the Kentucky Derby. ;D :-X

We've got something special here, his name is BEP.

Thank you, BEP, for helping all those of us who come here with problems ; you are always there for us. You are caring and give so much of yourself to others.

May God bless you for all the good you do.

P.S. Thanks, Ray.

Alfie

Yes, thank you bep.  Hi, Alfie.   ;D

I like BEP, he is openminded and honest.  And I enjoy his postings.  If we step out of line, let's be honest and accept our chastisement.  Thankyou BEP. You have made me feel at home here.  

I voted for ~> Me and everyone else



Blessings Everyone!  \o/

KristiAnn

I stand behind our Lord Jesus Christ and the power of prayer.  Because this forum has changed many aspects of my Christian life, and our moderator is key to making this forum a better place - my prayers and support are for Blackeyedpeas.

Mr. BEP:  God bless you and keep up the good work.

I also voted that BEP is doing a good job.

For anyone thinking otherwise, he at least is doing the job none of us are doing here - it is voluntary, and thankless. Let's not be throwing stones since none of us are perfect either.

peace


Ditto

Oklahoma Howdy to All,

I feel especially blessed by God to have so many sweet Christian friends. It is a joy to lift each other up in prayer and share our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.

Love In Christ,
Tom

THEY must have waited for me to be gone. Gone for a about a week and they start picking on Good ol Mr. Bepster!

Mr. Bepster does a great job dealing with all our egos. Some day i hope to forgive him for kicking Hitch  :P.

Thank you Bepster for hanging in there. Your job here is like that of an umpire even when your right some one will be angry with ya. Takes a person with a heart twards God to deal with His brat kids...

BEP, God bless you and keep up the good job you are doing.

I voted................ Me and everyone else

I think beepers has done a wonderful job, acting as our mod.

Beepers...Beepster...doesn't that sound like a Muppet Character?

Oooooo!  Mr. BEP as a muppet (a stuffed shirt)????  I’ll have to consider that a while…

Okay – that’s long enough.  Was there ever a muppet that was a police officer????  Maybe we could create one!  :)  Of course!  "Officer Beeper"!!!!!!   :D  :D  Tall black boots - dark brown uniform, trooper's cowboy hat, badge like a smiley face...  :D  :D  :D  :D  ;D

(Sorry, Tom – that one was just too good to let pass without (un)serious consideration!)  
 :D  :D  :D  :D  :D  :D  :D

Jesus loves you,
Jim

Takes a person with a heart twards God to deal with His brat kids...

EH!  


I vote we buy him a rocking horse  :D

rofl @ judgenot

Do you know the muppet man?  :-X

Shylynne,
I know the Cookie (and ice cream) Monster, personally!  ;D

 ;D   ;D  ROFL - If my kids only knew, that would be a present on some special occasion.

I was just thinking about questions people used to ask in the FIDOnet International Echo "ASKACOP". My bulletin board was 357 Magnum for many years. If you wish to ASKACOP, go ahead.   ;D

It's really funny that the uniform on the Muppet looks much like the one I wore for about my last 8 years of service. Here's one for you JudgeNot - we did wear cowboy style trooper hats when I first started in law enforcement. I liked it - it was oval and meant to fit on a head. The later hats were round and gave you a headache.   :D

I spent most of my career in a spit and polish type uniform and gear. I was an expert at spit-shining boots, and the rest of the gear was very heavy and stiff corfam. We used nylon gear and footwear about my last 8 years. It was obviously more practical, but I don't think it was as professional in appearance.

Well, I had a little trip down memory lane there for a minute.

Love In Christ,
Tom

Me afraid >:(

  Not on your life just dumb >:(

so is that the admin  in the corner of the box with the oh no i`ve created a monster look on his face? ;D  






 cookie AND ice cream monster? I got jipped!  >:(

BEP we demand a pic of you in said professional looking uniform to see if you really did/do resemble a muppet   :-X  :P  :D

He he

Oklahoma Howdy to Shylynne,

 ;D   ;D  I'll have to work on that. I did lose some pictures when my old computer fried. For now, I'll tell you that I was lean and mean in that first uniform. I might have resembled that muppet just a little bit at the end of 25.   ;D

Of course, nearly all of Teddy Roosevelt's surviving Rough Riders looked like muppets in 2001. There's one word that should never be said in their presence. The last time it was said, it caused a horrible mess:








 ;D

k muppet man quit messin `round and produce the might have  :P

 ;D  I'll start the search, scan them, put them on my server, and post them here. You won't believe they are the same person.   ;D  

Love In Christ,
Tom

You know Shylynne, you could say please. ;)
Ok beeps, can we please see you in you muppet uniform? ;D

that I could dream LOL

but as you can see men of muppets caliber respond best to direct orders  ;D

s'il vous plaît and merci monsieur muppet how very obliging of you!  :D



touché dreamweaver  :P

Fozzie has a gun?  ??? Maybe Miss Piggy; but FOZZIE?

That's like Pooh Bear with a swastika on his shirt.

 :D

???
Sorry I only speak in English and A.S.L. What ever that is, I don't know. ???

C'est Frenchie monsieur Dreamweaver!  Ya know, like the fries, only less likely to roll belly up and surrender in the event of a war... ;D

ROFL! ;D
Okay if you say sooooooo..................
I'll believe you on it being French. ::)

Oklahoma Howdy to All,

For now, here's a picture in the new uniform shortly before I retired.


I'm still looking for a young picture in that professional uniform I talked about. I might have to break open the shadow box display case they gave me at retirement. There's a picture in there of some guy with with almost black hair. He almost looks like a piece of chained down lightning.   ;D   ;D  I have a hard time remembering him.

Love In Christ,
Tom

HEY, this is a lot like how I pictured you BEP!  Very authoritative<sp>!


ROF  Luvin it!  :D

Mr. Beepster, SIR!

Great.  There goes my concept of how ya looked.  Ya look professional and good Brother!  Not a thing like Barney Fife...

 ;D

Seriously, that's a picture worthy of respect my friend!

:) Ain't it!

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!  :D

Thank you so much for giving us a face with a dear brother!  :D

HEY!  Wait a minute...  I know you... Didn't you arrest me once...
 ;D

One of the members of my congregation is a former police officer who retired due to disability after an on-the-job auto accident.  It is widely said (and knowing this former officer I believe it) that 99% of his arrestees said ‘thank you’ to him after he delivered them to county jail.  Why?  Because in doing his job, he was also polite, loving, and respectful and gave them an ear full of scripture between the arrest sight and the booking facility.  

I kinda bet Brother Blackeyespeas had more than a few similar “thank you’s”  

I would bet on that as well.

Cool thread!
I voted "Me and Everyone Else!"

ty for the picture bep! Nice to have a face with a name. Great pic!

why Tom you look just like you!  merci beaucoup! ;D


but you dont resemble a muppet at all  >:(

that is unless you have the big belly...

do ya?  :P

I think you should show us whats in the shadow box  :-\

allinall  ;D

sorry dream , did`nt mean to confuse you...again  ;)
that is a little of the french I know ...not a  binlingal canuck :P

what is A.S.L  ???

;D

JudgeNot,

Brother, I do remember quite a few thank yous from some really interesting characters. I did try really hard to treat people nice, and that was a real chore for some of them. I didn't like what I was seeing near the end of my career. It was becoming more and more violent by the day, and people were becoming the drugs they were on (i.e. PCP, Meth). You were actually dealing with the drug, and the person was hidden away so far that you couldn't find them. The officers have no way to guess what they will try to do next.

There was a dramatic difference between 1976 and 2001. In 1976, an officer knew there would be fights almost every night and also knew there would be stitches, teeth knocked out, etc. This was in Lawton, my home, also known as little Detroit at the time. In 2001, officers were in gun battles with 15 year old kids doped out of their minds. In 1976, officers tried to treat kids like their children and do anything possible to try to help them. In 2001, officers had to kill some kids to save other innocents and stay alive themselves. One can't train an officer to understand and deal with this. So, in terms of police work, dope is definitely the devil working overtime. I might add that the officer doesn't know the age of the person running at them with guns blazing. If they did, what could they do differently?

I loved police work, but I don't know if I could do it again with the conditions of today. I will always pray for our police officers every day, and part of me will always be a cop.

Love In Christ,
Tom

Shylynne,

 ;D   ;D  Sister, yes I gained some weight over 25 years. The older officers kidded me about buying clothes in the boy's department in 1976, but I was buying clothes in the men's department in 2001.   ;D  Maybe I did look a little bit like a muppet.   ;D

Love In Christ,
Tom
