I’m not last in my category, and I thank you for that. Sean Hackbarth isn’t last eilther, and is asking his readers to vote for him so he can beat me. I don’t care if he beats me. Just don’t let him make me last.
That’s my slogan for these awards: Vote for me so I don’t come in last!
Several blogs I have been voting for: Silent Running for Best Podcast (it’s not winning, vote for it), Chris Muir for Best Humor/Comics (he’s not winning, vote for him!), Norm Geras, who is currently leading the Best UK blog category (that one is a really tough category with, like, six blogs I’d like to vote for), and Dave of Israelly Cool for Best Middle East/Africa, even though he hasn’t got a snowball’s chance in hell of beating the Iraqi bloggers.
I’m rather uninterested in these awards, as you may be able to tell.
I’m far more interested in Dave’s Jewish and Israeli Blogger Awards. I have to start thinking of a post to nominate for the best post category. Go over there and nominate your favorite Jewish or Israeli blogger. There are a few in my left sidebar to choose from, but I recommend going from JIBber to JIBber and reading as many blogs they link to as possible before making a choice.
And I’ll be going through my posts of the past year and looking for a nominable one. Unless you have a favorite of 2005 that you can think of off the bat.
Your link goes to the humor category (i.e., the Chris Muir category). Your category has the following URL: http://weblogawards.org/2005/12/best_of_the_top_251_500_blogs.php
Fixed. Thanks.
There may come a time soon when we’ll have to start plugging for either Austin Bay or Betsy Newmark so a man (Michael Berube) doesn’t win with a weblog full of talk on postmodernism and Alan Sokol (however interesting those subjects are).
And I’ll vote for you to make sure you’re not in last place. It’s the least I can do. :-)
Why didn’t you do a bit more PR for that specific vote, Meryl? Some people I know do not miss a day without reminding about it.
Well, my first vote for what it is worth is in. Another 4 to go, unless… Yeah, I have an idea…
though I plan to compete in the category, what about ex-Jews?
