    The winner of the 2008 LAMMY for Best Impression of Bob Dylan is…

    This is the bizarro cousin to the J.D. Salinger award, meant to award the blogger who posts a lot, but maintains the highest quality with each and every post. It was the 10th most active category, with 52 total votes spread to 23 sites by 26 voters. The winner took the trophy while receiving a vote from 42.3% of the voters, the 5th highest percentage of all the categories.

    The envelope please…

    3rd place (tie):...

  • A few really quick notes on The LAMMYS

    A few really quick notes on The LAMMYS

    * First of all, with a little less than 10 hours left to vote, a big thanks to the 33 people that have voted thus far. I know it’s a time consuming task, and I appreciate your effort. The voter turnout will just about match my expectations, which were admittedly high. Keep in mind that of the first 78 LAMBs, at least 3 sites are currently defunct, and a handful of others are live but totally inactive. So it’s close to 50% turnout...

Also, please note that this site is Not Safe for Work (mild nudity; I learned the hard way) – NSFW, but...
