Vote TGoC for a better tomorrow!

The First AFOE European Weblog awards are underway, and this blog has been nominated in two categories: "Best Weblog" and "Best Weblog Focused On A Single Country Or Region." I have no chance of winning the first category; it includes a well-known heavyweight that has about 1000 times more traffic, and 1000 times more IQ points, than this site. Even worse, the other leading contender is Petite Anglaise, who has promised to pose in satin pajamas if she wins. In French, this is what’s known as a coup de grace, or decisive finishing blow, because in the online universe nothing trumps the promise of seeing a woman lounging around in her jammies. It’s a royal flush. The only effective countermeasure I could take would be to slip some dioxin in her morning coffee. A lot, though. You don’t want to mess something like that up.

The second category ("Best Weblog Focused On A Single Country Or Region") looks a bit more promising. Carniola is currently leading, but that can quickly change. In other words, this is not the time to rest and wonder what Petite Anglaise looks like in her pajamas, or whether it will be a blurry picture that hides her face, and how bitterly, bitterly disappointing that would be. Now is the time to go to the polls in full force and cast votes, either for this blog or for some of the other great bloggers on this glorious continent we call Europe.

You can get your democracy on here.

(Thanks in advance to everyone who will, or already has, supported this site!)

    Cheers a lot for the endorsement, Mike!

    Good going for Carniola so far. Thankfully, I see that you were spared having to deal with the political row that would surely have developed if TGOC had been put up in the Best Southeast European blog! :-)

    Mike: advertise that you’ll pose dressed in just your underpants, or that you’ll do some crazy thing if you win :>

    I voted for the eternal Glory of Carniola, of course.

    No offense to petite anglaise, but TGoC is just much better and closer to my heart.

    Although my finger almost clicked the wrong check-box after having found out that she played the legendary Elite. Geek chicks in satin pajamas that can run a website and like computer games are just too cool.

    Michael,

    You got my vote, but Satin Pajamas looks to be pulling away 8-(

    I enjoy your blog, though. At 50 years old, with wife, kids, college, mortgage (who was it that said “the full catastrophe), I may not realize my dream of living in Europe, so I live it vicariously on the Web.

    Thanks from me as well for the endorsement. And I voted for you, natch. (Our tastes seem to pretty similar, looking at your endorsements!)

    I have the same competition problem as you. The folks at slugger o’toole, growing fast in the political weblog category, have just promised NOT to show themselves in their pajamas. What can I do ?
    (pajamas that look like they will be sent in a teddybear’s size…).
