It's that time again! LimeyDawg has done an amazing job as poet laureate. Thank you for an outstanding run, Mark!

Our next Poet Laureate has shared a great deal of poetry here and provided insight, critique and fostered a sense of community in our poetry forum.
It is my pleasure to announce the next Poet Laureate, to serve for two months.

Please join me in congratulating and welcoming...

JST5150!

I'm looking forward to your Poet Laureate contributions, Jason!

Great choice, powers that be!

Congrats Jason! This will be fun. Can we torment you with requests for poems like we (er, I) did with Paint?

Thanks for all your hard work, Limey. Can't wait to read your next poem.

Is the next step to become a Hugh Laureate? I may have a hard time with that one.

First, thanks. Look for some initiatives in the coming months in the poetry areas. This is a fantastic opportunity for poetry and nonpoetry enthusiasts to get shed a little light their ways. Just so you know, I have zero plans for my reign, however, if you'd like some input that, I welcome your comments. Otherwise, I'll just Pinochet my way through this. :)

Again, thanks to AW and everyone for this.

Good god, I hope so. Did you read The Gunseller yet?

You'll do very well and I hope you have fun in the process. Congratulations!

How about free parking and a pension plan for former PLs? If the company won't let you, I'm okay with the Pinochet approach.
