This is the first I have even heard that said. Tom had taken on a difficult job, as have Zoe, Margy, Dave, Lissa, Dania and the others who acted as administrators. They work for free, take a lot of guff and do the best they can on each issue. Some times they were wrong, and some times they were right. In the end, it has worked. Although I seldom post, I must say I have always enjoyed private posts with Tom, and know his decision to resign was not made easily. To put to rest the rumors, here are the top ten reasons I have heard are the basis of his decision: 10. Tom has decided to enter the arena and run for President against Hillary Clinton. 9. Tom will be moving to New Orleans to help with all the body work needed on the FEMA trailers that now have to be returned to trailer parks in the mid-west to get ready for tornado season. 8. Tom will be setting up a new List limited to GSDCA members only to discuss nothing other than club business. You will have to prove you are a club member to even read the List. 7. Tom has been selected for the next group of survivors which is planned to be held in Israel, pitting Jews against gentiles. The tribes will not be combined in the end, but rather will set up separate countries dedicated to promoting folk music. 6. Tom has a new album coming out with rap music about German Shepherds and conformation shows only. He has taken on the name Snoop Doggy Tom. 5. Tom was selected by George Bush to take over Homeland Security, and he will be transferred to Southern Arizona where he will limit the influx of illegal aliens as he has done so well in St. Louis. 4. Tom has been named as a previously unknown heir of John D. Rockefeller and has agreed to donate his money to Bill Gates to end halitosis in the third world country of France. 3. Tom has decided to give up all his hobbies to dedicate his life to bringing World Peace to all Irish people living in Chicago. 2. Tom will be spending a large part of his time advising Jimmy Moses on how to breed better dogs. He has agreed to tour with Carman to contribute to his lecture on the subject. 1. Tom decided he had done all he can do to improve the List and decided his "work was done." He will continue to use his super powers for good, honesty and the American way. But, that is just what I have heard.
