My Contest Sucks So Don't Enter

Due to lack of interest in my contest to come up with a paragraph of words from A-Z, I am canceling the Awesome Dude Blogger Award Contest.

I know, all of you are devastated and were really looking forward to seeing how I would pull off this contest with some many entries to choose from. Well, I guess you will never know. It's OK, my feelings are not hurt, and I don't feel any less awesome because the only awesome dude that entered the contest was actually an awesome dude-ette.

So, in the spirit of keeping the Awesome Dude Blogger Award ongoing to its next victim, I give the award to...



On a similar note, I have also been NAB'd for no good reason. I'm not sure what I will do with this award but it will probably suck, too.

I'm a Winner!

Words can't describe the feelings rushing through my body! I have been given the equivalent of the Academy Award for bloggers! OK, maybe more like an MTV award since it comes with a guitar and the words "Awesome Dude" attached to it.




YDS of Rattling The Kettle out in Cali was bestowed this ongoing award by another Awesome Dude Blogger and did a caption contest for this photo of a zebra he took at the San Diego Zoo. Apparently my caption was the favorite and I won! Thank you!

The rules of this award say that I now have to pass it on. I liked the contest idea. In the spirit of creativity I will also do a contest! The guidelines of this one are simple. Write a 26 word paragraph (in the comments section of this post) using words starting with each letter of the alphabet in order from A to Z. For example:

"Afterwards, Bob continued doing evil faces. "Good Heavens!" I jumped kicking loudly, making noise on purpose. "Quiet!" Roger screamed, testing unfinished Velcro while x-raying young zebras."


The best one chosen by yours truly wins the Awesome Dude Blogger award. In the event that a "dudette" has the best one I will alter the award. Good luck!
