In case you’re new here, scroll down just a little bit and look at the sidebar. You’ll see a widget titled “Random LAMB.” These are banners that the LAMB members have created to advertise their sites. The full gallery can be seen here. This was the 3rd most active category, with 73 total votes spread to 32 sites by 26 voters. The winner took the trophy while receiving a vote from 31.3% of the voters, the 8th highest...
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…

Best Impression of J.D. Salinger
This category, meant to award the blogger who may not post much, but makes sure that the few posts that come are worth the wait, was the 13th most active category, with 42 total votes spread to 32 sites by 24 voters. The winner took the trophy while receiving a vote from 16.7% of the voters, the lowest percentage of all the categories. In other words, it was a tight race!

Your long national nightmare is over. It’s time for the awards to commence!
As I mentioned yesterday, two awards will be given out each day for the next seven days, finishing up with the big kahuna (Best Blog) next Monday. The votes have been sent to the independent accounting firm and have been tabulated. Anyway, enough foreplay.

This was the 6th most active category, with 66 total votes...
* 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...
Time is running out! Voting for the LAMMYS ends Monday night at midnight Pacific time. Please don’t miss this chance to honor your peers (and maybe get honored yourself) as it won’t come around again for awhile.

I promise to make no more than two or three more reminder posts about the LAMMY deadline. 😉
Also, the deadline for entries into the...
I’ve seen in a few peoples’ LAMMY votes comments something about having to rush before the deadline and/or not being able to fully visit/judge the sites due to the deadline.
I’m not sure where the idea is coming from, but the deadline is not until next Monday, May 5th. So please, take your time – you’ve got a week!…
...It’s a tight race for Best Blog, with three or four horses running pretty close and 16 votes now in. Let’s get that number up to at least 25 by the end of the weekend. If you haven’t voted, what are you waiting for (besides having the time to inspect 75+ sites)?…
...I should have waited for Mrs. Fletch’s help on this, but she’s busy working. As such, I used the twin designing powerhouses of PowerPoint and Paint to make this masterpiece. Maybe she’ll make another later…
In the meantime, if you want to pimp your site and make one of these, go for it and I’ll put it up (thanks to Mikey of Spaghetti Sauce and Sweet Peas for the inspiration). Let’s have some...
Judge your peers! Brag about your standing within the LAMB community! Win fabulous prizes! If the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences can recognize its own every year, so can the LAMB.
Here we are nearly six months and more than 75 LAMBs into this little project, and it appears to be a hit. Mrs. Fletch and I were discussing potential future LAMB events one day (as we do quite a bit) and she came up with the idea of...
