Default Tomas for President


You've read his posts. He's locked your threads. He's doled out sage advice with wry wit for those who are unenlightened. He also photoshopped a picture that made me pee a little in my pants . He is Tomas, and he is my new write in candidate in '08. Republicrats be damned.

(p.s. I'm glad Tomas has an outlet like scionlife.com to tell us how he REALLY feels. I guess thats one way to make the 2nd generation smaller! Burn off those extra "calories". Photoshop is a glorious thing...)

That's a Photoshop?

Tomas, seriously, I will pay you money to have you teach me this.

That looks like a CR-V buring with the front end of the xB photochopped to it.

^^^It matters not, to me... the man is simply brilliant. Hopefully he'll grace us with a post as to how he made it.

Oh, I see.

My goal/dream, once Tomas teaches me how to do this, is to enter the Photoshop contests on Woot!.

Yes, only about an hour ago though. Another Wootoff and another empty bank account.

Why oh why?

It's okay... it's been really crappy. Things are sticking around for hours at a time.

Funny stuff. Some familiarity with woot.com is good to be armed with though.

I will be writing in Tomas for president in the next election.

This country needs a leader with a wealth of automotive experience.

With his background in English cars and Volvos, I believe he has the knowledge to propel this country into GREATNESS.

Not to mention eliminating all terrorists worldwide, world hunger, cure for cancer, pardoning Paris Hilton, etc......

I'm sure tomas has yet to reply as he is busy with assembling his cabinet members and preparing his acceptence speech.

Heheheheheheh... I just spotted this - spending some time learning the ins and outs of Flickr, which I just loaded 144 pics to.

I quoted from William Tecumseh Sherman in another thread that suggested this: "If nominated, I will not run; if elected, I will not serve."

Out of 300,000,000 people there HAVE to be better choices.

====

That pic is indeed two pics massaged together to make a point (in yet another thread) that I would worry about the average modder getting involved with a hybrid Scion if they were to make one - some of these folks can't change out a head unit or even a dome light without damage...

Here are the two original pics:





Together, with very little work, one gets this...

HE SPEAKS!!

As for you refusing your nomination, I would like to quote Keanu Reeves, "Aww, Dude... that blows..."

On the serious side Tom, you are a wealth of info, and very helpful and insightful in your posts. Just wanted to throw you some respect and let you know it's appreciated. Card carrying Libertarian here (Yes, I have my Social Insecurity card #000-00-0000) Anyone interested in a serious 3rd party with new ideas, check into it. Granted, in our society, they have about as much chance as Tomas of winning, but I continue to vote with my conscience and hope for others to catch up to this party's views.
