Buzz Lightyear: Getting Ever Warmer

Greetings, Thingite friend!! This is Buzz Lightyear smiley - rocket (as I am more commonly known in the rest of the h2g2 galaxy) & I come in peace!smiley - smiley Heaven knows why it took me so long to notice thy revolution, but your campaign intrigues & excites me summing up how we all feel when each day of the week comes around. Yes, you make alot of sense. Do I qualify to be let in? Do I have to be over 16? Do I have to have a driving licence? Or be able to buy booze @ the local offy? If not, and it is open to all, PLEASE sign me up!!
Just call me: "Happy Days Are Here Again!"
That's in honour of the cause, that is (just to show you how committed I am!!). Much obliged.
Vive la Révolution!!

Hmm... not to be picky, but the titles we look for are more leadership-related. Check out the listing of people on the manifesto main page to see what I mean. smiley - ok

smiley - doh Oh, oh...Apologies! smiley - cool
At first I was blind, now I see!! smiley - bigeyes
This Space Ranger smiley - ufo should engage brain more! smiley - ok
I did see the Grand Order of Thingites list on the manifesto page (I think?) but was tooo dim to notice the theme!! smiley - dohsmiley - doh

Okay, here's a few ideas smiley - silly:
Minister of Carpe Diem
Captain of Carpe Diem
[I've got this thing for the Latin phrase, you see. Is that allowed?]
Lieutenant-General of Happy Days
Officer (as suggested smiley - smiley) of Happy Days
Keeper of Happy Days

Am I along the right lines? Shall I pick from any of the above? smiley - biggrin

smiley - rose Once I'm in, I shall endeavour to buy all fellow Thingites smiley - ale or smiley - bubbly to celebrate. I've got some loose change somewhere...

Excellent! smiley - biggrin
Thank-you for your words of advice & persistence with me!! smiley - ok

So, here goes: methinks I shall plumb for "Admiral Carpe Diem" smiley - magic -there's the leadership theme, whilst still remaining on topic. Do ye see? I changed the choice slightly, but I did always fancy the Navy!! smiley - smiley

Shall we shake on that, comrade? smiley - hugsmiley - peacesignsmiley - smiley

Vive la Révolution! smiley - rose
