Here We Go Again – PCAOB Solicits Nominations for Standing Advisory Group
I would like to be a member of this advisory group. After all, it needs more than just Lynn Turner and Cynthia Richson to raise the tough issues.
So how about it? Are any of my readers and/or current SAG members interested in seeing me and my stilettos at the meetings more often? I promise to behave and be respectful of my Big 4 colleagues in the SAG, at least during meetings.
If you’re interested in helping me achieve this career goal (and I don’t have many relevant ones left) contact me or submit a nominating form on my behalf.
Ask Michael David Thomas. I’m no cheapo!
Washington, DC, May 5, 2008 – The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board is soliciting nominations for members of its Standing Advisory Group.
The Standing Advisory Group was created in 2003 to advise the Board in carrying out its standards-setting responsibilities.

The Board solicits nominations annually and is currently seeking appointments for the 2009-2010, two-year term. Members will be selected by the Board based on nominations, including self-nominations, received from any person or organization.

I’m contacting you.

My only concern is how vulnerable you are to selling out. If you can stay relatively objective, I’ll suport you.
