Handing out some Schwag

Apparently, I am a schmoozer. At first, I was not sure that was the best of news, but then after reading the definition that went with the award that Frigga gave me, it does not seem that bad afterall.

"As it goes, schmoozing is the natural ability “to converse casually, especially in order to gain an advantage or make a social connection.” Good schmoozers effortlessly weave their way in and out of the blogosphere, leaving friendly trails and smiles, happily making new friends along the way. They don’t limit their visits to only the rich and successful, but spend some time to say hello to new blogs as well. They are the ones who engage others in meaningful conversations, refusing to let it end at a mere hello - all the while fostering a sense of closeness and friendship."

I also think schmoozing is having a way with words that you are able to call someone an asshole to there face and they actually say thank you for the compliment with a smile. So, as I hand out this lovely honor to 4 more recipients, I will allow my winners to decide which side of the definition they fall on. Now, onto the awards!

Starrlight @ Here Comes a Storm in the form of a girl. Check her blog out, she is all over the place in her discussions and all of the discussions are good ones. Not many people that you can find that mention Shakespeare, the Jena 6, and Social Distortion all in the same week or so? Plus, she is great at responding to comments.

Matt-Man @ Bagwine Ruminations- I was a tad concerned about giving Matt the award because I do believe he may think it will be accompanied with some sort of monetary stipend or at least some alcohol, but this man is hilarious, even when it comes to comment on the most innane posts on this blog, like the one about the 6 cops yesterday.

E.C. @ Whatever Blows My Skirt-One, shes a Red Sox fan, already gaining bonus points in my book. Her posts almost always make you either think or laugh. She has a wicked blog design and can always keep me up to date on my OLTL history.

Wylie @ Wylie's Words-She has a vivid imagination, I was impressed that she could even think I would be allowed anywhere near Gabrielle Union. She has lived in a bunch of cool places, which gives her a different insight into things then we get here just being in the Gold Old US of A. And her latest book sounds kinda hot.

Trust me, I would have given out more, I mean come on, Rhian is such a schmoozer/shiller for her favorite authors its almost disgusting, except I love her choices too. And Bond, sheesh, always kind and caring, check out what he's doing this weekend as an example. Anndi gives out gropes, if thats not schmoozie, I don't know what is. Go, read, learn, tell em they won.

And then come back later today, as in fact one of those teased Announcements is a contest that will get you a shot at some music!
