On being nominated for 'Best Designed Weblog'...
Well the nominations have been announced for Bloggies 2003 and this year I've not been nominated for either "Best Poof" or "Best Eurotrash". It's always a terrible shame when people who do so well in childhood fail to live up to their early promise, don't you think? Nonetheless, there is cause for celebration! Of all things, plasticbag.org has been nominated for the category of "Best Designed Weblog"!
My co-contenders in this category include Snazzykat, Neurotic Fishbowl, the gloriously lovely Loobylu -- subliminal: she eats babies and kicks puppies - you don't want to vote for her - plus anyway she's far too good -- and the frankly intimidating thinkdink. Obviously I don't hold out tremendous hope for victory, but that won't stop me pulling out my bull-whip and looking threatening until you agree to go and vote for me...
Typically, of course, such a nomination couldn't have come at a worse time. There are small oddnesses creeping in around the site which you probably haven't noticed yet, but will shortly. Something is stirring beneath the placid exterior of plasticbag's webloggery that may give you pause to wonder, "What on earth is he up to?" Trust me, it's nowhere near as exciting as it may initially sound. More later...
