Don’t vote for me

I see that I’ve been nominated for Valleywag’s vlog hot competition as a newsbabe. Don’t bother to vote for me because 1) Wink! isn’t a vlog 2) I don’t report the news and therefore am not a “newsbabe” 3) I would rather you help support an aspiring (although terrible) actress 4) I’m losing anyways and you wouldn’t want to waste your vote supporting a loser.

Nothing much else is going on with me, so check this out or go vote here.

    I can see your point, wrong category for you. Maybe someone thought because you hold a mic and stick it in people’s faces that it’s “newsish”. But you have to admit, it’s an honor to be in any lineup. And I love wink.

    The results look particularly skewed towards the people at the top, and the person closest to the vote button. They should really randomize the order of the poll questions to minimize that effect.

    It looks like you were destined for last just because of where you are in the listings (which helps your cause anyway).

    OK, I’ll bite. You totally have my vote.

    Complete aside: I’m not the same ‘Joost’ that’s posted here before. Totally bizarre seeing people with my name comment on the same blog.

    Also, now I totally can’t do that blog posting I had planned about ‘10 cute, nerdy girls whose podcasts shouldn’t be missed’ anymore, because Valleywag totally stole my thunder. Damn you, procrastination! Sorry, Leah/Veronica.

    you should win regardless… just because! I was thinking about it, and… what about if you wrote your next entry over why you prefer Macs over PCs? I know I’d be interested in what you have to say and I’m sure other people would too!

    What right have I to tell you that I am enraptured by your posts?: I am an old man. . . a healer. . . medical professional with too many years beyond your age; yet you capture my imagination and the spark of creativity within me. Thank you for giving me a moment of excitement and dreams, caught in your personailty an and very person. Thank you for stirring within me a dream.

    Hey, you’ve got my vote any day.

    Actually, If you have time in the next few weeks, we would love to interview you at http://www.openrecon.com about stuff like being a web developer, what you think of today’s web trends, and anything random that you might think of. It would be great to get you on the audio show itself, but definitely would settle for a text-interview.

    Thanks all for your nice comments. I’m very happy to see Veronica Belmont is still in the running - she’s a great video host.

    RabidLockerGnome/Mac - feel free to send me an email (leah.culver@gmail.com) with more info about the show and I’ll let you know when I’m available.

    This reminds me of my 1985 movie Brewster’s Millions where I had to waste a bunch of money so I started a political campaign to NOT be elected mayor. If you haven’t seen it and you have 97 extra minutes to waste check it out.

    So Lovely Leah Blogger Maid. You will get what you desire … no vote from me. Plus, I’m dead and my vote wouldn’t count anyway.

    P.S. A little lessen for the kiddies … free-basing cocaine can set you on fire or kill you.
