I’d like to thank my agent, my lawyers, God (in that order), and all the little people who helped me get where I am today. Oh, I told myself I wouldn’t cry. Hey, don’t play me off!Ok, that may be a touch premature, but I have been nominated for Best Entertainment Blog over at the Canadian Blog Awards. What fun! I of course only got into this blogging thing to feed my raging ego and to accumulate wealth, fame and everything else that comes with getting millions of hits a day. Ask me how that’s working out…
Nonetheless, I do appreciate the nod and glad that someone out there likes what I do. If anything it means I will be exposed to a few new good blogs that I’ve never seen before. If you feel like voting for me (oh yeah, I forgot to mention that part) I won’t say no, but don’t feel obligated or anything. Ok, I'm begging.
There are also a few of my friends nominated, so check them out as they are all worth reading (and voting for):
- Scandal Sheet – The nastiest celeb gossip wrap-up around. Wonderfully catty.
- Nik at Nite – Pop culture insight, bar none. Better than Lost itself.
- My Dinner Table – The mouthwatering site of a dedicated foodie, from gourmet to street meat.
- Menard Communications – Opinionated, mouthy, sarcastic and idealistic all at the same time.
- Amber Mac – The Geek Goddess, the Queen of Web 2.0.
Hey Jer: I just posted on this, and used almost exactly the same title!!! HAHAHAHA... we're like one mind, I tells ya. (Oh, and I issued a challenge to you, too, while still giving props.) ;)
ReplyDeleteWow, it's like deja vu (which we now know is caused by Denzel Washington and not a glitch in the Matrix as we had originally assumed.)
ReplyDeleteAs for an Oscar challenge, consider the gauntlet thrown.
I was actually posting a challenge to see who will win in the blog war, but I ACCEPT your Oscar challenge, Sir Barker! Get ready to be slaughtered.
ReplyDeletelol - I'd never win a popularity contest against you, Nik, but I shall bury you in the Oscar arena. Just 102 more days to go...
ReplyDeleteYou got my vote! But I'm an American so my vote probably doesn't count. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteHmm, interesting question. The site doesn't say Americans (or anyone else) can't vote and I don't think it's the Canadian Blog Awards Voted By Canadians, so I say vote earl, vote often! And thanks, of course, for your support.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the nomination!
ReplyDeleteI voted for you. Now I want millions of dollars (US) in kickbacks. I hope my vote counts (for I too am an American).
ReplyDeleteWhen I'm a blog millionaire you shall be the first on the kickback list.
ReplyDeleteWell, I voted for Popped Culture. I hope they don't discover my lack of Canadian citizenship....
ReplyDeleteCongrats! Will you still remember us little people? LOL! Good luck!
ReplyDeletePopped Culture 4ever. Rock on, Jer. Count at least one more vote.
ReplyDeleteI didn't want to love you, but I can't help myself.
ReplyDeleteBetween your blog, the Globe discussion boards and Pitchforkmedia.com, it's really amazing I'm still employed.
Good luck.
With all of this support - and much of it international no less - how can I go wrong? Many thanks for taking part in this democratic, uh, ego-boosting exercise.
ReplyDeleteWow congrats!!! Couldn't have happened to a better blogger!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the Nomination mate...I voted for you :)
