THE DREAM HAS COME TRUE!!! THE DREAM HAS COME TRUE!!! After three years of effort, the DUmmie FUnnies has finally been named as a FINALIST in the 2007 Weblog Awards!!! WOO! HOO!
Okay, I've had three years to think about this and I now have a GAME PLAN for the DUmmie FUnnies to WIN the contest for FUnniest Blog... Starting late tonight and for a week following there will be the CRUCIAL voting period. You can vote once per day but NOT more often since the Weblog Awards have software to detect more than one vote per day from the same computer which would automatically cancel the votes out. So ONLY one vote per day from each loyal DUFU acolyte.
However, each of you can act as precinct captains to get out the vote. All of us have a circle of friends, family, co-workers, and online blogger associates. Therefore I urge each of my DUFU precinct captains to work the "precincts" and bring out the vote. I will have information at the top of this blog in all future DUFU editions that provide links for easy voting. It only takes about two seconds or less to vote.
And now for your motivation in making sure the DUmmie FUnnies WIN as the FUnniest Blog. I could tell you that it would bring instant fame complete with tons of groupies for Li'l Beaver and myself but that isn't quite motivating enough from your POV. Also a WIN in the 2007 Weblog Awards would make it much easier for me to pitch a DUFU book (with CD-ROM insert) to Mary Matalin who has yet to answer my pathetically pleading e-mails. Again, great for Ol' PJ but what do YOU get out of it?
Okay, here is the MOTIVATION that will cause you to hit the VOTE button so hard daily for the next week that you might sprain your fingers. It is this---A WIN for the DUmmie FUnnies would cause such instant ANGST among the DUmmies (and KOmmies) in particular and the Leftwing Blogosphere in general that you will be able to savor some incredibly intense Schadenfreude (not to be confused with Freudenschade). Think about it. The Leftwing Blogosphere will feel instantly miserable knowing that a blog dedicated to laughing at and mocking their many foibles has WON the 2007 Weblog Awards as the FUnniest Blog. Also Pied Piper Pitt would be forced to hit Bukowski's for his heaviest drinking binge ever. A WIN for the DUmmie FUnnies gives this blog tremendous PR leverage with the media to focus the light on the Loony Left which I don't need to remind you is especially important with an election year coming up.
Okay, enough with my blabbering. Let me close out here with THANKING each and every one of my loyal DUmmie FUnnies acolytes for your terrific support over the years.
And tonight we go on to the voting phase to last one week so please prepare yourselves and your friends!!!
Precinct Captains! Move your troops to the border! The invasion of the Blogosphere under the command of General Li'l Beaver commences tonight!!!
p.s. Tell your friends they can easily access the DUmmie FUnnies merely by typing "DUmmieFUnnies.Com" in the URL box.
Great news! Congrats, PJ! It's an honor just to be nominated.
Now we're off to visit a Napa Valley winery, but I'll try to keep up with these exciting developments as I have a chance.
God what a nut case...
Congrats PJ on the announcement! The marching orders are out...
Awesome PJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations PJ!
the Weblog Awards have software to detect more than one vote per day from the same computer
Do they determine this by IP address?
Mind you, I am just asking for informational purposes.
Can we vote multiple times by deleting cookies?
WOW! Another classic from Michigander. Will use it in the next DUFU edition.
I like that one too. Will use it.
Let me know about the GOTV campaign and I will make sure I do my part.
Just post the vote link in the other forums you post on or on your blog if you have one. Also tell friends and family to check daily for the next week at: dummiefunnies.com . The vote info will be there.
You can either check the DUmmie FUnnies here. Or check my blog (DUmmieFUnnies.com) or check the vote thread I will be putting up on the FR tonight. All will have the link to click to go vote. It’s a very easy process. Less than 2 seconds to vote in total. PLUS you will be able to see a running tally of all the votes for the blogs in the FUnniest Blog category.
Remember, I need Lutheran votes. LOTS of Lutheran votes!
Congratulations!
If you mean multiple times, with at least 24 hours between each vote, you don't need to delete any cookies or move your laptop from one place to the next. In fact, PJ recommends that.
If, however, you mean multiple times within 24 hours, that in all likelyhood won't work.
Again, plan accordingly.
Mind you, I am just asking for informational purposes.
That's likely one, but not the only, method they use. Again, plan accordingly.
Operation Exploitation is merely waiting for the polls to open.
I don’t know if they are Lutherans, but we have the Boulder, Colorado troops lined up. We are feared and hated by the left wing and especially DUmmies. We have live people, dead people, dogs, cats, chipmunks and elderberries. We will be first in line waiting for the polls to open!
Congratulations, PJ! I’m voting for you.
