Heck, I think it has to become his new avatar!


Just so folks don't have to go back a page to see this, if they haven't already:


Frederick Blais penned the winning Tag Line that all 3 "other" judges had independently chosen for their top 3 selections:

Collective Port Wisdom ...



Honorable mention goes to David Leach for his submission:

Got Port?


Thank you all for your participation. As Frederick's Tag Line was chosen for its representation of the entire FTLOP community; other selections may be utilized in the future for their comedic value.

Congratulations to Frederick for his creatively inspired Tag Line!

When I did give my suggestions I was drinking..... not Port. It was sticky white wine from the Jura. Macvin de Jura, I don't remember the producer though.

Thanks to all of you for your wonderful (and sometime roll-on-the-floor-laughing) submissions, and thanks for making this forum such a wonderful place for "Collective Port Wisdom".

Port for breakfast; nothing new.

Only 5 words too, I like it for a tee shirt or tomorrow morning. Oh wait, it is tomorrow morning :lol:

There are a number of selections that appeared before the contest deadline that may be considered for use in the future. Each time one is chosen for "use on the website" ... a waiver will have to be signed and "compensation" offered. That is all that I plan to say at this time, except that when appropriate, further details will be released.

So, if you come up with Port related sayings that are really funny or clever, (no longer must they have something to do with FTLOP), without being crude, rude or otherwise offensive ... that is limited to three-six words ... please do feel free to continue to post 'em right here.
