We are blushing
So some anonymous do-gooder has apparently nominated us for the category of “Most Deserving of Wider Recognition“* in the 2005 Koufax Awards. We are there along with some 300-other blogs, including the definitely deserving Nur al-Cubicle, Pinko Feminist Hellcat, and Yep, Another Goddamn Blog, all of whom are capable of writing longer paragraphs than I am. Unlikely indeed that this humble blog should rise to the top of this stack, but I won’t complain if we do. Perhaps we can help the cause along by increasing our buoyancy - hot air rises! We will begin now. “Harumph, harumph! Capitalism! Destruction of the earth! Et cetera, et cetera. Something about animals!”
* This category reminds me of one we had in our Cub Scouts Pinewood Derby†, “Most Kid-like Construction”, which I used to win every year because I was the only kid who actually made my own damn racer.
† A Pinewood Derby is where you hand out a bunch of blocks of wood and a set of wheels to several hundred kids. They take them home to their engineer dads, who craft the blocks of wood into aerodynamically perfect, forward-weighted, graphite-lubed racing machines. (Including spoilers. I am not shitting you.) Then everyone races their cars down a ramp, and I lose.
