An Unexpected Honor
Nominations for the 2007 Jewish & Israeli Blog Awards opened last week.
In three years of JIB Awards, the best part for me has always been that I found a lot of new blogs to read, and that's true again this year. The J-Blogosphere has some very talented, perceptive and funny writers.
But, this year, I also have an interest in the outcome.
This year, for the first time, I have been nominated for a JIB Award, and not just once, but several times, in several categories, including Best Overall, Best Mega Blog (although I'm not sure I qualify for that) and Best Right Wing Political Blog (I know I qualify for that).
Two of my posts were nominated for Best Post, and one was nominated for Best Right Wing Post.
I am... overwhelmed to say the least. To be nominated is an honor, and to my loyal readers who nominated me, thank you so very much!
I'm happy to have a button to show for my efforts here, and its going into my sidebar, where it will stay forever!
Although... I do hope that when voting opens on April 22, 2007, you'll run along and vote for me, once to get me into the finals, and once again to help me win, because after all, the only thing better than being nominated is winning!
And even if you don't vote... visit the JIB Awards website to view some very excellent sites. You won't be sorry.
