Voting is Now Open – 2008 Bloggy Hoss Elections
VOTING IS NOW CLOSED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION! THE WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED SHORTLY.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Update #2 – PLEASE DO NOT USE THE POLL TO VOTE AS IT SEEMS TO NOT BE WORKING PROPERLY. TO VOTE, EMAIL ME AT (ANISLANDLIFE AT GMAIL DOT COM), LEAVE A COMMENT, OR USE THE CONTACT FORM BY CLICKING ON THE “CONTACT” TAB LOCATED ON THE TOP OF MY BLOG.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~** Update #1, I just checked the updated poll results and noticed three things: First, the votes have been tallying up. Second, using the poll you were able to keep voting over and over again as much as you wanted. Third, at this point no one is so way ahead of the others that I truly believe no one has been abusing the voting system. However, to be fair, from here on if you could vote using the contact tab in my nav bar and I’ll just keep track that way. You may vote only once in each category. Thank you for your understanding! **
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Thank you for the overwhelming response to the 2008 Bloggy Hoss Elections. Like I mentioned yesterday, I’ve decided to include ALL blogs that were nominated because I felt it was so great that bloggers had such nice things to say about each other! You have until June 12th to vote for your favorite blogs. Good luck to all!

Oh, I’m so thrilled to even be nominated! I’d like to thank God for giving me fingers so that I can type, my parents for not breaking said fingers when I was going through puberty and all those who are responsible for putting me on the “Most Likely To Succeed” list. I’m humbled to say the least, but obviously not speechless.
I’m off to vote for myself and then trying to find a way to juryrig the poll so that I’m sure to win. Just kidding, just kidding… (Are you sure you didn’t mean to put me on the Class Clown list? You might want to check and make sure that wasn’t any oversight!)

I just followed someone else’s “please vote for me” link and what a fun surprise to see that *I’m* actually nominated for the Brainiest category. I hadn’t the faintest idea, I just happened to be scrolling through and saw my own blog there.
A big thank you to whoever nominated me, I’m very flattered to be thought of.

Voted.
Lisa’s Chaos’s last blog post..Gone to the dogs
I just found this. How much fun? I had to twitter it and add it to my Google Share because, seriously, that’s what the Most Likely to Succeed chick would do, right?
In high school, I was voted Most Likely to be Famous. I think they meant in movies, but I decided that “Most Likely to be Famous for Rambling on and on in Comments” would work, too.
This was fun. I have to write about it this week, too! Thanks for including me. And whoever nominated me, tell me!!! I love you!

Hey Carissa,
You go, Girl! I hope you win, cuz you deserve it! I mean that in a good way…:) I enjoyed reading your blog. Julie B. plugged me into it and I just had to laugh, especially about the SassyQueen’s dance studio. I know how you feel! We’re not staying with that dance studio next year either. Good luck in your surgery!
Well, I’m thrilled to be nominated in ANY category, so thanks to the blogmates o’ mine who might’ve been behind it
.
BUT…I’m trying to vote, too…and I cannot tell if it goes through! Help! I’d be feelin’ really “Not Brainiest” if others hadn’t said the same thing.
People…HELP?
And to those of you who are popping over to see just how talkative I am…WHY THANK YOU! Speak!! I’d love to “meetcha”!!!
Robin (the pensieve one)’s last blog post..Turndown Service ~ Friday’s 40PC #3

Kathleen’s last blog post..Happy Saturday!
I didn’t even know I was nominated until someone left a comment that they voted – but seeing all the other blogs listed, I’m so amazingly flattered to even be in the mix. So many women I respect are on here – all RIGHT!
Thank you for including me… hugs!!
(ps – how funny to put me in “most talkative,” when I have social anxiety and can’t speak in large crowds).

Sorry for the third comment, but I have to chime in with the eleventyhundred other people and wonder how exactly you get your votes to register?
You said the votes are tallying but is that after you click next to a name and the check mark shows up? Or is there a submit vote button or something?
It’s confusing.
Loralee’s last blog post..Sideblog: I’m just glad to be nominated

I love your idea, but find that it is indeed a shame that bloggers have the power to enact change, to make the world a better place, and to help those that need help, and yet we visit in hordes the mommy blogs, we give accolades to the blogs that talk about ice cream and toads, teddy bears and diaper systems.
The most popular blogs, the ones that attract 100 comments are giant advertisments.
Good for those whose blogs flash ads like a vegas strip, but if you had the readership (influence), do ya think you can do some thing that would make this world a better place?
Just asking in a nice way.
I did enjoy many of your posts, and like your “voice”, but I kept looking for the killer post, the one that makes the 100 commenters go WOW, we have to do something about this!

I voted!
