Further to what a cop out

My previous post titled " Further to what a cop out. ..." contained a real howler. Yes, it should have been "Nationals' Chris Gulaptis cannot tell the time of day."

However, whilst thinking about my error the following little ripper came to mind.

Below is the first release of the Gulaptis webpage. Take a look at it and see how little polish the Nationals' candidate had when he first went to the world wide web. The candidate, or his mates, could not get his name right.

Copywrite (???) 2007 Chris Gulapolis (???) ....!!!!

Would the real candidate please stand up.

What the Daily Examiner says
"...[Chris Gulaptis] is fiercely loyal to the conservative cause, does not run from a fight as is even seen as charismatic. "He helped relocated a bat colony from Maclean High School, took on the former Carr government ... and has managed re-election campaigns for Mr Causley and Steve Cansdell, both of whom won handsomely."
- Daily Examiner, 3 April 2007

A word from Ian Causley MP
"I am delighted the local Nationals have picked Chris Gulaptis to run for the electorate I have represented for the past 11 years. "Chris is a committed family man, a great community leader, and never gives up until the job is done.

"Is it vital that we keep Page in conservative hands. If Labor wins Page, Labor will also win power in Canberra.
"That would mean Coast-to-Coast Labor Governments, neglect of country residents, and the possibility of an increase in the rate of the GST.
"I encourage you to support Crhist Gulaptis at the forhtcoming federal election."

My personal favourite is the "Crhist" for Chris and the fact that even though the errors were pointed out to the web designer, these errors lived on and on and on.

"Crhist"? Sounds like someone is suffering delusions of grandeur.
