I was sorta hoping it would get nominated for &#8220;Best New Weblog&#8221; or &#8220;Least Spellchecked&#8221; or something else I&#8217;d have a hope of winning, but &#8220;Most Humorous&#8221; it is.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t get me wrong:  this is great news for my Brobdingnagian ego!  But it&#8217;s also bad news for the yeti-reading public, because now that I&#8217;m &#8220;on the spot,&#8221; as they say, the next fortnight&#8217;s worth of entries are certain to be violently unfunny, just as a multitude of visitors stop by to &#8220;check&#8221; me &#8220;out&#8221; before voting for Wil Wheaton.  So if you&#8217;re here four days from now, and you&#8217;re wondering why every post after this one is all like &#8220;let me tell you about this great <i>For Better Or Worse<\/i> strip I read this morning, LOL!!!,&#8221; that&#8217;s what&#8217;s going on.  Go read <a href='\/archives\/cat_favorite_posts.html'>these<\/a> instead.<\/p>\n<p>Or, better yet, go read <a href='http:\/\/www.cockeyed.com\/'>Cockeyed<\/a> or <a href='http:\/\/smartypants.diaryland.com\/'>Mimi Smartypants<\/a> or <a href='http:\/\/www.torrez.org'>Torrez.org<\/a>, pretend that it&#8217;s me writing all that ha-ha, and vote accordingly.  (That last one is kinda tricky, since Andre Torrez is also up for the &#8220;Most Humorous Weblog&#8221; award.  So it&#8217;s crucial that you remember, at all times, that you&#8217;re pretending <i>I<\/i> wrote the funny stuff on his site.  Otherwise you might get confused and vote for him. Here&#8217;s a mnemonic you can use:  &#8220;If Torrez makes you laugh so hard that you become sweaty, vote for the yeti&#8221;.)<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for the nomination, Bloggies-ers!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good morning. defective yeti is up for the &#8220;Most Humorous Weblog&#8221; Bloggie.
