And they’re back
Under license from the founder, the eminent Mike H., JenX67 is conducting the 2009 Okie Blog Awards. Nominations will be taken starting the first of January. I don’t see a “Least Improved” category, so I should escape this year without being nominated. (Jen is taking suggestions for new categories, but I doubt she’d buy that one.)
In case you’ve been living in one of the 56 other states all these years, this is the idea behind the OBAs:
The purpose of the awards is to recognize the hard work and talent of Oklahoma bloggers, as well as to raise awareness about the growing significance of blogs as important sources of news, information and entertainment, etc.
Disclosure: This very site won Best Overall Blog in 1912, beating out Birds on My Clothesline, The Lost Ogres and The McCarville Report.

I knew this was going to be a snarky post when I saw the word eminent.
And there is a good chance of an award for you this year, CG. I see they’re considering an “old fart” category, otherwise titled “Veteran Blogger”.

Can out of staters vote? ‘Cause you’ve got mine.

In previous editions, they could not; however, I suspect this rule will be lifted for the ’09s.
