What is Clave?

I looked up the definition in the dictionary, but the entries I've found
we
1. past tense of cleaver
2. A cylindrical hardwood stick used in a pair as a percussion instrument.
3. A syncopated two-bar musical pattern.

I'm assuming it means gathering?

That's right, 'Clave is an abbreviated form of Conclave.

Stems from the Nahuatl "conclavatl" meaning camaraderie, drinking, dunking
and occasional fishing.

I just looked at that list for the first time. Nice job. Tim!

However.........you knew it was coming.......right?.....

IIRC, HWMNBN has only ever been applied to a single specific individual
within this group.......thus far, anyway. A brief explanation of the
circumstances might not be entirely out of order......one need not
necessarily even name HWMNBN.

I don't recall whether the acronym "POTY" has ever been used here, but I'm
fairly certain that the expression it abbreviates has. A possible candidate
for inclusion?

I understand the limitations of space, and the definition of "SPLORK VANG
MU" is accurate and witty enough, but it seems to me that a fuller
exposition of the peculiar relevance to ROFF (as well as due recognition of
the roles of the principals) might make it even better........um........OMN.

I await your definition. . . I am but the keeper.

I've seen it used on other groups as "program of the year", but I'm
assuming, for ROFF purposes, you mean "post of the year".

VANG MU" is accurate and witty enough, but it seems to me that a

This goody came into play before my arrival here. I'll need
enlightenment.

....um........OMN.

That *must* stand for Walter, 'cause we all know Wolfgang isn't your
real name.
