Slacking On My Thanks

Published by threedegrees at 3:49 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

[lemonadeaward.png]Slightly under two weeks ago, I was given the Lemonade Award from one of my new favorite bloggers, Kim, from A World Of Progress. You are now all commanded to visit AWOP (not a wop, you anti-Italian bastards) and read and comment and generally spread the love.

Apparently upon receiving this award, you are supposed to nominate 10 blogs and pass the award onto them. I thought about it, and realized that 10 may be too high a number, so I’m going to go with five.  Five sounds about right; I like prime numbers, and I don’t have to play by anyone’s rules by my damn own. So without further ado, and without repeats from my last round of shoutouts, here are my Single Malt Blog Awards.

The first award goes to the blog that gave me the lemonade award,

A World Of Progress : Thanks, Kim, for being one of the most socially conscious, active, and aware members of the blogosphere. For your constant reminders that we are all human, and deserve to be treated as such, take this bottle of single malt and drink, liberally.

Inspire Political Discourse : Also fairly new to me but tremendously comprehensive, IPD has become another one of my daily reads. If you enjoy your news with attitude and snark, and you obviously do if you’re reading this, stop on over and give Nicole some love. Thanks, IPD, for all that you do. Enjoy the bottle, and cheers.

Polianiac : One of our own here on Today.com, and one of the best. I look forward to Karen’s well thought out, researched, and exceptionally written socio-political commentary. So please, enjoy the whiskey…and if we bump into each other at the inauguration, we can enjoy some down at McCormick and Schmicks for realz, yo.

The Raging Rev.  : Because I have to kick down to a fellow non-theist. I just have to, we’re the most underrepresented group of people out there. For constantly challenging the status quo, have a drink on me. Cheers.

Waxing Poetically : Ah, Mikey LaPenna. Another one of our Today mafia. He’s actually a genuinely kind human being, which is why I can’t understand why he hangs out here as often as he does. In any event, he blends the written word with video in a way that enhances both. Go check him out. Mikey, here’s hoping you turn into an asshole when you get a bottle of Scotch in ya!

If I forgot you, or you’re feeling left out, wait and see if Santa drops you off an award in your estocking. And birdie, I mentioned you last time, so stop getting all huffy.

In case anyone is wondering why I ignored the right wing blogs this time…why the fuck are you wondering that?

Cheers

    No worries man, you got me on the last one, spread the love around. This was my first of this type of thing, so I had to get you in there. I actually didn’t even see your post til after mine, but I noticed we both named two of the same blogs.

    Aww, gee, man! I was really hoping to get an award from one of you nuts on the left!

    BTW - your image isn’t showing up!

    Happy T-day!

    Hi Threedegrees. Just wanted to stop by since you stopped at my blog. I’ve been seeing these award things on other blogs as well. I take it this is another one of those blog marketing things?

    I really like your header. I was a big fan of the muppet show when I was younger!
