Congrats to the Bobcats of Montana State for their 6 - 16 victory over the Griz. However, considering that they may not even make the playoffs, one has to wonder what the morons were doing after the game tearing down the goalposts. "Yay, we won a game against a rival that we play every year! Lets destroy shit!" I'm sorry; I'm happy for the Cats, but that was just stupid.
On to better things: the polling for the Montana Website awards is closed ... sort of. If I receive an email tonight with a ballot, I will add it to the tally. No comments will be accepted, and no posts on others websites either. If you have placed a ballot and I haven't acknowledged it, then let me know, and I will include it. Otherwise, we're done for this year's polling.
It might take some time for me to post the results. I have been judicious in tallying the ballots, so there's no problem with that, but there's a whole lot to present and it's gonna be a whopper of linky goodness. Add to that that I worked many long hours today, and just want to enjoy the pigskin play tomorrow, and I may not have the results up until Monday or Tuesday. I hope no one minds too much.
And finally, I'd like to thank each and every person who voted or promoted this vote. I did get an anonymous email last week accusing me of just trying to drive traffic to my website, (as if that's some kind of Satanic crime). To some small degree, that's true, but that sure as hell wasn't the intent going into this. This whole exercise has really been about Montana, and the people who represent it online. I hope those who know me accept that. And I thank you all for participating.
Oh, and I was just informed that the Dillon Beavers have won yet another state class A football title. Heh heh.
Sorry that I'm fashionably late - but it has nothing to do with fashion, you devil worshipper, you.

What? Attempt to drive traffic to your own website? You should be ashamed of yourself. This is an affront to humanity. I mean, after all, we DO make so much money off of these blogs don't we? Hell, I should be retiring any day now, I'm sure you've just about got your bank account filled to capacity as well. Everyone knows that we just do this for the money, money which is directly related to how many hits we get, right? Sorry to bust the proverbial bubble blog pundits, we don't get payed squat. The reward for a blogger is seeing evidence that something he/she wrote is being enjoyed by at least somebody. When we write something or come up with an idea that's enjoyed by a lot of somebodies it's just that much more fun and rewarding. Now, thanks to wulfgar, we all get to see who's attracting the most somebodies and maybe learn a thing or two about how to improve our own blogs. What a selfish bastard he is for spending so much time helping all of us improve. wulfgar, you should be ashamed. ;)
If you read this and think it's funny then you should go to asifyougiveadamn.blogspot.com and read the rest of the drivel that I've laid out for the enjoyment of the online world. I'm not above a good old fashioned shameless self plug, this is a blatant effort to direct more traffic to my site, can you find it in your heart to forgive me?

OMG! This was all JUST A PRANK!!?? You were just trying to get traffic???
[Why didn't I think of that . . . ]
Thanks Wulfgar, for the idea, and the work. And I hope you got and get lots and lots and lots of hits.
XOXOXO

Jason, I like to attract the "nobodies" they're much more fun than the "somebodies".

uhh - sorry Justin - I don't even know a Jason. . . I kept calling Troy the Goat Jason too. . . Freudian slip, I wish that I could remember who the heck Jason is - he must have been "somebody".

Bank accounts have a finite capacity? That explains SO MUCH about mine. ;)
