Annual (Or Whenever We Get Around To It) Ace-A-Thon….Blog Of The Year Edition

You may have heard but this here little blog recently won an award.

And now that Mr. Spades (if that’s his/her real name, is once again an award winner it’s time to offer up a human sacrifice or hit the tip jar. Since human sacrifices are officially frowned upon by the authorities (stupid liberals), the tip jar, the tiny PayPal link over to the left, seems the better option.

Why should you hit the tip jar? Well, an award winning Ewok blogger can’t eat the lamentations of his vanquished competitors women alone. Though to be honest, I’m sure they make lovely background music at dinner parties.

And while churning out content for the hungry masses should be all the remuneration one needs, it turns out that bloggers might actually have other career options. What if Ace just decided one day that he’d rather be a Senator (R-Forrest Moon of Endor)? Where would that leave you. Don’t laugh. If buffoons like Jar-Jar Binks and Lindsey Graham can become Senators, surely an award winning blogger could do it too.

Ok, so maybe you’re not buying the idea that Ace could leave all this to run for the Senate. But would you believe that all his assets are currently tied up in lucrative Russian investments based in Cyprus? If he doesn’t come up with some money and fast, “Boris” won’t be happy. You can’t type when your fingers are broken or use voice recognition software when your jaw is wired shut.

The reality is, we’re conservatives here (well most of us but that’s a fight for another post). We don’t believe in getting something for nothing. I’m not saying you should send Ace $5,000 (I’m not saying you shouldn’t either) but if everyone or even most of you, lurkers and comment regulars alike, tossed in $5 or $10 each, it would add up to…carry the 7…look there’s no math on this blog so don’t worry about the exact number, just know it would help the guy out and be greatly appreciated. Not so appreciated that you’ll get a thank you email but don’t be greedy. It’s better to give than receive, yada, yada, yada….tip jar.

As always, all money goes to Ace and not for Dave's dental plan (much to Dave's annoyance).
