Well, it looks like it's that time of year again; a time for tears, frustration, anguish, panic and heartbreak - yes, it's The 2011 LAMMY Awards!
I know that this is a major thing for many bloggers such as myself who think that their blog is the be-all-to-end-all. THE blog of blogs! And even though I didn't even get nominated for anything like a "Participation" ribbon or something like that. Maybe this is my year. Lord knows I'm gonna go out stumping for myself as hard as possible.
Oh yeah; before I forget, there are some of you who aren't aware, so I'll elucidate: there is a website known as The Large Association of Movie Blogs where all the big kids who have blogs devoted to movies of some stripe or other go and sip brandy, lounge around in red smoking jackets and talk about the differences in Pauly Shore movies and the like.
I am a member myself (#487, in fact) and owe my membership to fellow movie blogger Jason Soto of Invasion of the B Movies for leading me over that-a-ways and setting me into the fold.
And every year, awards are given out for certain blogs who are found to be prime examples in such divisions as Best Blog, Best Blog Design, Funniest Writer, Best Running Feature and so on. There's a lot of awards to be handed out and I, like everyone else, must submit a banner ad For Your Consideration and for your votes. My banner this year is pretty good and succinct, I must say:
How could the LAMMY committee at large let this one slip by this year, I ask you???
There is going to be a lot of competition this year and, up until May 9th, I'm going to be in there punching as hard as I can and fighting for those votes to get there in the nominees and make sure that I at least get one LAMMY this year.
You better believe it.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to have to build up my campaign strategy. Vote TGWD!
Dope out.
