The First Annual i think washing your hands is stupid... Awards!

The Grammys. What a waste of time. Like any stupid award ceremony, the good get praised, and the crappy get jealous. I guess I just have a jaded view of award ceremonies because I never win shit, as you may remember...

Now, to be clear, I'm not one of those people who think everyone has to win all the time, that there can be no losers. I just think you should be nice to the losers, because if they don't play next time, well... never mind... I'm not sure where I was going with that.

On top of me personally never winning anything, my blog never wins shit either. I've never been nominated for one of those stupid best blog contests and no one has ever given me one those goofy "your blog rocks" buttons to put on my site. I bust my ass here all the time, and this is the thanks? Nothing?

Well, to prove that I'm much nicer than the average schmuck, I'm going to create my own sort of blog Grammys, if you will. An award ceremony. The First Annual i think washing your hands is stupid... Award Ceremony. You won't get anything from me, because... well, I don't have anything to give... But you will get the satisfaction of knowing that you were appreciated for something. And if you don't get appreciated, well, either I don't know you exist... or, you've never done shit for me, so, to hell with ya...

The first award is the Creativity Award. This is the most important feature for a blog to me. It keeps me coming back, wondering what will be written that day. I don't know, it could be bitching about work, or a weekend story, or memories from childhood... It is seldom the same over and over. And the Creativity Award goes to - View Lulu! Congrats.

Next up, the Funny Award. This next award recipient I just started reading not too long ago. He is very funny, and a very good writer. The Funny Award goes to - StringMan. Congratulations.

Now, a double award. The Best Blogging Couple. Because, let's face it, while I would love the hot wife having a blog, and encourage it, I don't know if I could handle someone blogging about the same things that I blog about. I mean, how the hell would I make shit up to make my post better? Anyways, because it's easier said than done I believe, the Best Blogging Couple Award goes to Mama? MAMA COME HERE! and A Dad's tough day! Good job guys.

Next up, the Hip Award. This goes to the blogger I think is the hippest, and I would probably enjoy hanging with if we ever got the chance. Lingo Slinger... c'mon down... Congrats. You're hip.

The next award recipient is a fellow Wisconsinite. And the award is a combination award. The Smart/Funny award goes to Law & Alcoholism. If I ever got into deep shit, it would be nice to have him as my lawyer... he knows his stuff, and we could have a couple of drinks after we mop the floor with the prosecution... Keep up the good work.

And now, for a different type of award. It's not that her blog isn't worthy of it's own award, because it is, but this person is being recognized for something that is important to me. Loyalty and support. For being here the longest, never judging me, and leaving comments just about everywhere, which makes me feel all warm and fuzzy... The Loyalty and Support Award goes to Dawn from Chai and Apple Pie. Thanks Dawn.

The next award is for the Most Offensive Blogger, which I happen to like. Besides the nasty pictures occasionally posted, there is some pretty funny stuff here. And the post titles are to die for. This year's Most Offensive Blogger Award goes to Carrie from Blogfart. I mean, even the blog name is offensive... I love it. Congrats Carrie.

This next one is a new award. Wait... they're all new awards... Anywho, this award is the Most Pornographic in a Good Way Blog. For her participation in Half Nude Thursdays... the award for Most Pornographic in a Good Way goes to An Extraordinary Ordinary Life. Good job, keep those nudie pics coming...

The next award is for Best Blog with the Most Obnoxious Design. For being pink. I hate pink. Congrats Too Cute for DC. Good writing, yucky design.

The Best Political Blog goes to Boots and Sabers. They keep me up to date on my politics. Thanks, congrats.

And now, not awards, but a sincere thanks to those who link to us: Beyond Wonderland; A Passage to Egypt; O.Kay; A Hangover You Don't Deserve; Insanity Reigns Supreme; Amy's Musings

Thanks guys, you make the world go around.

peace nick
