It’s supposed to be about 80 here today so there are probably better things for me to do outside instead of sitting in the house monitoring the Weblog awards.
As you can see, we seemed to have passed Chris Muir’s Day By Day crapfest which was our goal from the start. Remember: the Weblog Awards are not about winning. They are about making other people lose and then sitting back and watching as their disappointment over the loss of a meaningless award sends their lives into a downward spiral of depression, anxiety, alcoholism, and anonymous degrading sex in a Minneapolis airport bathroom stall. Or as I call it: Saturday Night with Ace of Spades.
I want to thank all of you who have put your personal lives on hold (sure you missed grandma’s funeral, but it’s not like she noticed) so you could dedicate hours to voting, deleting your cache, and then voting again and again. Also I want to thank the guys at Balloon Juice and Sadly, No! for pitching in. For John Cole, may the Steelers do well against the Chargers, and for Brad at Sadly, No!… uh, maybe next year.
Again thanks to you all. Don’t quit now. We may not get the gold, silver, or bronze in our category but I hear fourth place gets Naugahyde which is pretty sweet. We’ll be back later after going to the beach.
I mean, not now. Later. When the sun comes up…

Its a nice gesture to Cole, but rooting against the home team in the playoffs? Hopefully by “do well” you meant “still lose, but not by a lot”.
Not only do you have more votes than Boob by Boob, but you have way more than Malkin. That makes me happy.
OK, I voted for you. Three times.
And you are ahead of Muir.
Now where is my Segway?
Lured in with Shakira then given a chubby Beckham in seal training.
I thought Naugahyde was endangered now ?
w3ski
Tragically, the naugas, from which naugahydes are taken, have been removed from the Endangered Species list by the Bush Administration.
My understanding is that a certain company wanted to do some strip mining in the Ozarks, which is of course the native habitat of the notoriously camera shy naugas.
As I said, tragic.
Ooh, action basset!
And Nylund, what’s more important – a Chargers win today, or TBogg trouncing Chris Muir in the all-important Weblog Awards? I thought so.
Dog Beach.
Watch your step!
Better to stay home, vote, and watch Sproles.
Oh, I’ll vote again even though I am jealous of your Southern California weather as I sit here in Rhode Island with everything covered in a sheet of ice. Even the beach.
I’m freezing my ass off here in Steeler Country (24 degrees), and you want me to continuing voting while you’re at the BEACH?
What’s wrong with this picture?
Which kind of seal training is that, ceo1? The kind with those tough Navy guys with the Zodiac boats and the razor-sharp knives? Or the kind with the blubbery barking animals that eat lots of fish? Maybe Beckham should make the choice.
Eight inches (uncut) of fresh powder here in Vermont. Heaven on earth if you’re into cross country skiing and snuggling up with a puppy in front of the fireplace.
Uh, WTF? Mormon Babe has lost her big mo, and instead it’s Autoblog in the lead. Autoblog? A blog about cars? That’s like desperately trying to get a date with that hot chick from Comparative Lit, only to see her have a major crush on one of the vending machines in the cafeteria…
Anchoress took a tumble on the third turn. If I am the vet she will be put down.
I hope you realize Muir will exact revenge on the spines of the women in his comic strip.
Yes, I voted. Now more puppy pix. Positive re-enforcement, ya know.
That picture has made me feel better than I have in quite awhile and I have been feeling just fine. So that is one great puppy picture…
WTF is “Autoblog” which is leading in your category?
Flag on the play! Working in concert with a Steeler fan on silly web awards is one thing, but dude, you just lost your native status.
