Happy Blogiversary to me (part 1)

posted Thursday, 15 April 2004

I have one year of blogging under my belt.  I have no profound reflections to offer on blogging right now.  I've found it amusing, I've met some cool people - both virtually and then in "real life," and it's allowed me to theologize whenever I feel like it, which is often.  I've also learned a lot from reading other blogs and from your comments.  Thanks for reading everybody!

In honor of this momentus occasion, I will be handing out blogging awards over the next few days.  Let's begin!

The Best Use of Acronyms Award:  Thomas at Endlessly Rocking! 

The Best Drinking Game by a Methodist Pastor Award:  Gutless Pacifist!

The Most Diverse Links in One Blog Entry by a Christian Ethics Professor Award:  Mark at Whimsical Revolution!

The Most Sacramental Baptist Blog Award:  (this one was tough, folks.  I thought long and hard about all the sacramental Baptist blogs out there, and finally decided upon...) Tripp at Conjectural Navel Gazers!

The "Calvinist and Arminian, Living Together In Perfect Harmony, Side by Side on their Blog Board, Oh Lord, Why Can't We" Award:  Marvin and Jonathan at Ivy Bush!

The "Wish They All Could Be (Theologically Intelligent) California Girls" Award:  Camassia!

The Best Blog About The Election Award: Athanasius at Nicene Theology!

The Blog Most Likely to be Called "Pinko Commies" by My Dad Award:  Allen at The Right Christians/Village Gate!

More next time!

*Sigh* Always the bridesmaid . . .

I would say "Even being nominated is an honor" but it's not clear I was even nominated for anything.

*sniff* (manfully blinks back tear)

Thank you Vanessa for this hard won award. As a SNOB I will place it right up there with the statue I received in the third grade for throwing a pitch that actually made it over the plate.

Well... thanks again! Happy anniversary, blessed Eastertide, and peace out!

Wow, I feel unworthy of beating Lynn for that one. But thank you! Happy blogiversary!

(p.s. What's a 'pinko commie'? Doesn't 'pinko' mean a mere sympathizer, therefore not fully red? Well, maybe I should be asking your dad that...)
