Lost – Thanks, babe

Cedar – Jersey, Schmersey.

Violetsky – Yes, thanks. Really? You thought the others were lame? I thought some of them were actually quite scarily good.

I hurried to catch up, Whew, not too late…voted. Done. Like dinner. Where’s my turkey? Oh yeah, I am too late for that.

Actually, there wasn’t much to choose from: you or some lame, not very interesting blogs.

BTW I voted for XUP was that good?

Alison – No they don’t let you know. I guess they figure if you don’t have a network wide enough to find out about these things and let you know, then you don’t deserve to win. I think it’s cool that so many Ottawa bloggers were nominated and I hope we all win and blow every other Canadian city of bloggers out of the water and will forevermore be known as the City of Excellent Bloggers!

Lesley – Modesty prevents me from saying, Boo-Ha! But thank you for your support and I think they do track by IP address. So you’ll just have to run all over town and vote on every available computer.

And I thought voting for Barack Obama was exciting!!!

I checked out the rules and it’s one vote per person. Which totally kills my plan of sitting at work all day and clicking over and over and over and over. Assuming they’re tracking IP addresses or something. Pffffft.

BUT, I am passing along with instructions to others to vote! We must make sure the best blogs win!!!

And congrats on the nomination. SO DESERVED. It should be filed under “No Brainer.”

That’s so cool!!! I am off to vote for you all! One question, did anyone inform you officially? I found out when checking sitemeter and seeing referrals from the CBA website.

Off to vote now.

A&J – Thanks. We want to beat out Windsor this year for the most best bloggers.

Mike – I’m honoured to be an exception.

Becky – No, they only take one vote per IP

Dave – Of course! I always share.

Falstaff – I think that might be a conflict of interest. Also, only the drug dealers and hookers who actually read the blog should vote, to be fair.

Helen – Merci

Cedar – Gosh, you’d do that for me? Just make sure those dead guys all vote from different computers.

Gabriel – Thank you! I didn’t see your nomination until I read about it on Robin’s blog, either. Congratulations right back atcha. You know we have a pact going where whoever wins has to take the others out for breakfast, right?

Loth – Pah! With your mad qualifications, you should be a judge.
