News is a commodity, like oil, natural gas, or pork bellies. Bad news is the most abundant commodity in the world! That’s why they give it away for free on the internet! We find the best bad news on the internet and then mock it for free!

Thanks! If memory serves correct this is the fourth time this blog has been nominated for this award. You can read our related-entry for the first nomination below. In any event, rather than go through the steps required by the mysterious award ceremony committee, we will eventually attempt to incorporate stories from your blog and the blogs of other people nice enough to nominate us in future comedic entries!

In contrast to your blog, I have some good news and some even better news. The good news is, in appreciation for my enjoyment of your writing, I have highlighted your blog on my site by nominating you for “The Versatile Blogger Award”.
The even better news is, should you choose to accept the optional mission set before you in my post (below), you can highlight up to 15 blogs of you own (and include exclusively those that post nothing but cat videos). Keep up the good work. Cheers, Tony

Note: I just read your comment above and totally understand your policy on acceptance. I’m sure you will highlight cat video blogs as best you can.
