My good friend RC @ Strange Culture nominated me for a Blogger's Choice Award for Best Geek Blog. It's an honor and a priveledge to be considered for such a prestigious award.
Of all the categories Blogger's Choice is collecting nominations for (including but not limited to: Best Business Blog, Best Religion Blog, Best Blog of All Time) I do feel I best qualify for the Best Geek Blog Award. In fact, I think this award is my new calling in life. Why?
A geek is an individual who is fascinated by knowledge and imagination, usually electronic or virtual in nature. Geek may not always have the same meaning as the term nerd. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines the word geek as:
1: a carnival performer often billed as a wild man whose act usually includes biting the head off a live chicken or snake
2: a person often of an intellectual bent who is disliked
3: an enthusiast or expert especially in a technological field or activity
Thankfully, due to my summer internships with Barnum & Bailey, I stand before you saying that all three of the above points define who I am. I am, at the heart, a GEEK. And you know, as my readers, that this is a GEEK'S BLOG!
Seriously, though, please take the time to vote. And I'm not talking about the Presidential Election that's 18 months away. I'm talking about making me king of the Geek people! Tell your friends, your family. Tell random people on the street. I need your help. Help me become KING OF THE GEEKS!
Rock the Vote: RUNwithGOD.typepad.com for Best Geek Blog.
Thank you for your consideration. Boo-Yeah
All hail the "geek meister". "geekersorous" "geek-man". Congrats

I jus voted, like any true Dade County elections I am looking up the orbituaries for additional people who if they would be around would vote for you! You do need to get the word out, just offer money for the vote or hire someone to be a "phantom" employee, that works very well.
