Announcing the First Annual TAFNY Awards! The TAFNIES recognize the greatest achievements in T&FN Message Board postings. Sure the athletes train all year for a moment in the limelight, but do they have the persistence, dedication, and sheer lunacy of T&FN Board posters? We are the few, the proud, the looking over our shoulder to see if the boss/teacher/parent/spouse is about to bust us for goofing off. To start us off I offer the more obvious categories and nominees, but feel free to create your own!
