Longwinded I most certainly am, but blogging has allowed me to transfer my windyness to a purely voluntary audience, as opposed to the captive audience of employees and family that I previously enthralled.

[iraqwarwrong]

you forgot TIWWB for best Somethign or other!

[Rob A.]

Frankly, I don't think I understand my category. So I'm witholding thanks until I can determine your angle.

[never been a prom queen]

Always the bride's maid.

Well, I don't know if "upset" is the right word. Then again, neither is "relieved." I'll have to get back to you on it.

[Sobek]

If you're seriously giving the "Best spell-check boycott" award to Hugh Hewitt, and not The Iraq War Was Wrong Blog, something is fundamentally amiss in the universe. A great disturbance in the force kind of thing.

And I think I should win something, too. Why? Because I like winning stuff.

[francisthegreat]

I'm sure I'll think of a category that my crap blog can win in, just one minute here...

[Beth]

Best Blog Not On Your Radar--or Blogroll:
My Vast Right Wing Conspiracy (also Most Shameless Link Whore, at least right now...sorry, I couldn't resist--you made it too easy)

Best Really, Really New Blog--and also

Battle of the Blogs

[sortapundit]

Best blog cited within this comment: Sortapundit

[Nick]

Best Blog Not On Anyone's Radar: The World According to Nick. What can I say... I'm a link whore too. I like the ego stroke.

[Jack]

Dude, you snagged an Instalanche. Pretty nifty!

[The Commissar]

Lamest attempt to snag secondary Instalanche by hot-linking his own blog in Comments: unSortaPundit

[Confederate Yankee]

Hey, that's now two awards ceremonies I've not been a finalist in!

If I keep blogging for another month, just think how many more award presentations I'll be ignored by...

BTW, do you have an awards graphic? I'll add it to my site...

;)

[notherbob2]

Link whore? Secondary Instalanche? Lions and tigers and bears, Oh My! I am so November! Either that or I am easily impressed. Well, at least I am a good audience.

[Jim Treacher]

Most Pathetic Bragging Attempt: I coined the term "Instalanche."

[Jeff G]

I once tongue-kissed Nicole Eggert while on Spring Break at Daytona Beach, FL.

[Formerly Dan]

You forgot the most missed blog, USS Clueless. SdB come back to us.
