The 2004 Weblog Awards!

I'm sure everyone is aware about the Weblog Awards by now. No, not the crappy ones done by some stupid, arrogant, eletist newspaper. The one's being put on by Wizbang!

The voting site is here. I am in the best Essayist category. Currently, I am number 14....of 15. Okay, so I don't completely stink, just mostly. Here's the basic rules:

• You can vote once in each category per day. This means aber 24 hours you can vota gain. Vote early and vote often.
• Voting closes on the 12th of December. Again, vote early and vote often.
• Don't cheat. I'm sure if you clear out your cookies you could probably fool their system but they check IP's. Over 300 votes have been removed already. (Now if you can change your IP....)
• You should give the Wizbang! team a congratulations for putting together such a good event. They've worked their collective butts off.
• Don't vote for Instapundit. He's evil. If you don't believe me read this. It's just as accurate as Dan Rather.
• Since I'm supposed to be an essayist I guess you'd like to know where the essays are right?

Here's a list of essays in no particular order...okay, chronological order:
