And there is little ole me winner of Funniest Catholic Blog so don't tell me my negative campaign didn't work out.
Congrats also to all the nominees this year and the blog awards site makes a great page for checking out blogs you might not have been aware of.
Special thanks to Joshua LeBlanc of Cybercatholics.com who make the awards possible in the first place and of course all of the people who take the time to nominate and vote for their favorite blogs.
We got to do something about the timing of the blog awards though. Having it smack down in the middle of Holy Week just doesn't work out for me. I actually had to think humble thoughts and the size of my head did not expand as much as in earlier years.

Congratulations on your well deserved win!
Thank you also for all the support you have shown us this past year. We are grateful.
Following your lead, next year we plan to go negative early and often!
By the way, do you happen to have any secret bank accounts that you would prefer that people don't know about? No reason, just asking for future reference.

Posted by K T Cat email at March 20, 2008 2:31 PMYour levity and irony are always appreciated in my infinitesimal corner of the universe. As are your insightfulness and devotion to the Faith. As every kingdom needs a court jester to bring laughter and wisdom, you will continue to bring joy to our King.
"Well done, good and faithful servant."
Congratulations, Jeff.

Posted by PNP, OP email at March 22, 2008 7:33 AMCongratulations! And you are SO right about the timing. I wanted to write about them, but I'm not blogging this week. Also, it's a very bad time for Catholic bloogers (or Catholic anything) to be patting ourselves on the back about how great we are. I mean, we are great and we should revel in it, but when Jesus is heading for the cross... I'm thinking, not so much.
