Beauty Contest

[AC_A340-500]

OK, this is pathetic, I admit. But my students (I'm a teacher) have a chance to win 5 PC's, a year's supply of free internet, and an 8000Euro party. All that has to happen is that their teacher (me) has to win a beauty contest.
A radio station here has started a beauty contest for teachers , and my students entered my picture (without telling me BTW). I found out about it a few days ago, when a colleague of mine told me. The picture is from a Grad party that I was invited to, a few weeks back.
Yes, it may not be the most breathtaking photo around, but I've decided to support my students (after they begged and begged to keep the photo entered in the contest) and go for the grand prize. Since I'm not going to win on account of my looks, I have decided to ask the help of the people in this forum.



All you have to do is click on the link, and click on the word "voten" beside the picture . Try not to laugh at the picture.
You can vote once a day per IP address until Monday, July 14th. The more votes the better the chances for my students. Man do I feel pathetic asking people to vote for me, but what the heck!

BTW, if the page doesn't open at first, maybe try again later cause the site has increased it's volume tenfold since the begining of the contest. Again you can vote up to once a day.

Thanks a million! (I'll let you know how it turns out!)

no, don't worry! it's ok!

hmmm how can I prove it?

[Haibane]

Vote for a guy, GAG

[AC_A340-500]

hey, it's for my students...

[whttrshpunk]

And what do you get if you win? Btw what do you teach?

[YogsVR4]

What the heck. You got my vote. Good luck - I hope you win that stuff for the school.

[AC_A340-500]

I don't get anything, but my students (well the school to be exact) get 5 PC's and free High-Speed Internet for a year. In addition they get a huuuuge video/dj dance party worth over 8000 Euros (about 9000 USD). Oh yeah, the winner has the embarrassment of having to accept the prize and the title of the "regions best looking teacher" - on air - in front of a large listening audience. The winner has to put up with a few years of jokes and stuff from colleagues and friends as well. A title that I hardly deserve, but I want the students to win the prize anyhow.

Oh yeah, I teach English and IT. (guess now I'll have to pay even closer attention to my spelling and grammar).

Yeah - its sitting in the garage in need of a few repairs.

[AC_A340-500]

How does the DeLorean handle? How is the braking? Power comes from a Volvo or Peugeot 2.8L V-6, right? Just curious.

Its handling is pretty crisp and braking is adequate. Nothing real great, but it is a fun car to drive. The engine is the Renault PRV6 2.8L V6. Not very powerful at all but since there were < 9000 made, it is pretty unique to see on the road.

[hnybrneyz]

haha...too funny. well i voted for you. good luck.

[AC_A340-500]

THanks again for the voting guys (and girls)!

Veetec: I'm in "Mittelhessen" and my "Kennzeichen" is GI.
The AC in my name comes from Air Canada. Actually my name AC_A340-500 (Air Canada Airbus A340-500) is the name that I use in an aviation forum, and I thought I'd use it here too (so I don't forget it hehehe).

YogsVR4: yes, exactly from Renault. How could I forget that (silly me). Funny how I can remember displacement, but not the manufacturer. I'll always have a soft spot for the DeLorean (man, hope I've been spelling it right).

Thanks again for the welcome! Lots of nice people here I see!
