Blog Awards Even Shorter Shortlists Out at Last
Feb 27th, 2008 | By Bock | Category: internetWell that’s a relief. I was beginning to worry that I’d wasted €18 in the charity shop buying that jacket, shirt and worn-but-comfortable pair of secondhand shoes.
Bock, much to my surprise, seems to have survived the shredding and remains in the two shortlists: Best Blog and Most Humorous Post, though for the life of me I can’t see why they’d want an aggressive old drunk like me coming to the party and causing an ugly scene.
Hmmm.
[Note to self: Too nice to people lately. Consume more drink, urgently!]

Just make sure to go over the time limit with the acceptance speech. Deliberate slurring of words shouldn’t prove a problem and be seen as an advantage by any self-respecting judge half langered up at the counter.
