It's high time the GOLDEN WELK AWARD be passed along to another within our ranks. Besides, I'm tired of hearing Shelle complain about all the extra dusting and the sand ending up in her keyboard.
NOTE before you continue reading: Do not...I repeat...DO NOT post your suggestions here!
I will consult with the past awardees and the General Ray concerning your suggestions. Past Awardee suggestions may carry more weight than those yet to receive it, but that's only fair should I actually decide to set any sort of "gravitas"* to their suggestions. But I wouldn't count on it, so suggest away and include your reasons for suggesting...especially if its for yourself!
I am solely responsible for the final decision THIS TIME. And since the criteria for receiving the Golden Welk award are not set in mud, much less stone, don't be surprised if it makes NO SENSE whatsoever in the end!
IM me your suggestions for those you might think warrant a Golden Welk visit for weird finds, unusual experience, a Win/Loss in life recently, acts of total stupidity, valor in the face of bad odds, etc.
This oughta be fun!
(**Gravitas: A word of Latin origin meaning "to have force of weight". Popular among the Left Bank crowd in Paris regarding which broke college student's finger painting should cost more than another. Became popular among U.S. Liberals in 2000 elections when they heard it for the first time and decided they could use it to show the rest of us dolts in America how chic and intellectual they were compared to the rest of us and thus vote for Gore. Might have worked if they hadn't ALL used it very same morning on every dang TV & radio show in the nation and then denied any collusion in its sudden usage.)
