Remember this from last year? Remember how obnoxious I was about soliciting votes to win an award? Remember how

- Best Local Blogger - Look around you. Are you not entertained? Then vote for me as provider of poetry, purveyor of prose and the proprietor of this purple...thing.
- Best Local Personality to Follow on Twitter - Okay, you might not follow me on Twitter. You might not even have Twitter. You might not know what Twitter is. You might dislike Twitter. You might not know what Twitter is and still dislike it. You might have Twitter, follow me and really dislike it. I get that. I just don't care. None of that should stop you from voting for me.

I'll post actual samples of some old Tweets below. But you get the idea. Bottom line: Get Twitter or don't get Twitter, just vote for me. If it helps you to think of it as The Twit Of The Year award, I'm fine with that.
Thank you, dear, loyal readers, for your support! Honestly, I'll
PS: I'm going to expect to get votes for Best Local Sportswriter next year, if there is such a thing.

- Give a white man a fish and he'll eat for a day like this (eats all stiff), but a black guy will eat it like this (eats fish loose & funky)
- OVERRATED: Rock UNDERRATED: Paper UNDERRATED: Scissors UNDERRATED: Rock
- I just found out Tyra Banks is ending her daytime talk show. In related news, I just found out Tyra Banks has a daytime talk show.
- I wonder if the BP corporate office building has fire escapes but it takes 30-45 days to access them?
