Zorgy Awards 2010

Yes, it is Zorgy time again and as always I appreciate any votes for this blog since I am up against The Daily Grail and The Anomalist. Not that I have anything against either of those sites (they are wonderful), but I would like to retain my 3rd place standing.

I always find it hard to vote in most categories because I normally have more than 1 friend or someone that I respect in each category. In those cases, I tend to vote for a person I like that I think will get the least votes of the people I like. Not suggesting you do that, it is just the only way I can decide.

Aside from news site, the only other category I have no problem with is podcast. I can't imagine voting for any other podcast except BoA: Audio. Loren Coleman agrees and writes: I enjoy Binnall of America for the podcast category. In the comment section Craig Woolheater announces that Tim will soon be joining UFO Mystic - I knew that, but it wasn't my place to say anything. Yep, it is me and the boyz over at UM and UM is also nominated for best paranormal blog, along with Cryptomundo, Regan's Orange Orb, Posthuman Blues, UFO Media Matters and Robert Barrows. Yeah, a very hard choice.

No trouble maker of the year this time around?

I got your back a couple of hours ago =)

Once I go through my alerts, I pop open Google Reader and go through your news picks. It's one of my favorite parts of the evening 'studies'.

Thanks! Always nice to know someone checks it. :)

LesleyinNM said...

BTW - nice to have you over at WOE now!

Deirdre said...

Thanks! I was flattered to have been asked.

Zorgrot and I decided to retire the Troublemaker category, as it tended to upset some of the nominees, and a lot of folks were never really sure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to be nominated.

I always thought it was a good thing. :-)

"I always thought it was a good thing"

That was my impression, as well.

LesleyinNM said...

I don't know Loren, an obituary might be good for remaining members of the family, depending on whether someone still has things to sell. :)

Deirdre said...

I have a crush on Loren now for using a Brendan Behan quote.

*swoons a moment*

LesleyinNM said...

Deirdre, everyone has a crush on Loren. Who can resist?

Deirdre said...

I can see why!

I'm going to etch his name in my Trapper Keeper with the eraser end of my No.2 Ticonderoga pencil.

LesleyinNM said...

Don't you do the BIG heart because I already did!

Deirdre said...

I'm taking back my friendship pin then!

LesleyinNM said...

Don't you dare because I know what went on behind the gym!

Deirdre said...

You wouldn't dare tell anyone about Bobby Johnson!

You just wouldn't dare!!

LesleyinNM said...

Only if you take back the friendship pin. Other than that, I suppose you could draw a big heart, even though I still think that I saw him first.

Deirdre said...

Whatevs!


*storms off*

LesleyinNM said...

Yeah, whatevs! Talk to the hand!

Hi Loren -

Tell you what, buddy. I'm easy. I'll just settle for a handshake and I will spring for the beer. What say?
