I readily admit I'm a dope with symbolism.
I recognized the M*A*S*H* pic right away, but for the life of me, don't get how it related to SaVOa......OR sunken boats.
harumph....

"The Swamp"
A "swamped" boat.
Stemming from Liz's note:
| Quote: | I just sent a note to Ed and Erik.
They're probably swamped.

OK, thanks for the elementary assistance with Symbolism 101...honestly, thanks.
....I was close.... but is SaVOa in trouble? Am I missing some reality, not just some analogy?

Dave, since you're not here in the Northeast, you are probably not as attuned to the event Erik is spearheading (VO get-together next Friday, December 5th at Butterfield 8 in New York City) as some of us in the Tri-State region are.
The only symbolism in showing sinking boats or the M*A*S*H 4077th "swamp" is to suggest that Erik has been swamped, with the additional work of dealing with organizing the get-together on top of his SAVOA activities (such as they are) and, oh yes, his own VO career. _________________ Lee Gordon, O.A.V.

Thanks, Lee....and others. I am truly a 1st-grader with reading innuendo and hidden meanings sometimes. I worry about me.
Part of the confusion is that I connect Ed Gambill more with SaVOa than Erik, so I had a disconnect there.
Has anyone heard if Ed got elected to the NC state senate on Nov. 4th... or am I behind in that too?

You're right, it's Ed who's the big Kahuna with SAVOA and Erik is an active member. But I think maybe whomever first linked Erik's VO get-together project with SAVOA in this thread made the same somewhat erroneous connection, which is how we got off on this tangent in the first place. _________________ Lee Gordon, O.A.V.

Actually Erik is one of the Directors along with our dear Robert Jadah and a few others.
Ed is the Chair & Nikki Saco is the Vice Chair.

So with that many chairs along with a few others, why are they swamped? Maybe it is a sinking ship

Suggestion...
All jesting aside... we should pull the plug on this thread before we sink below our own standards. _________________ "Bailey"
