De-lurking to say congratulations! I thoroughly enjoy reading your blog. You definitely deserve the nomination-- I'm off to vote for you.

Yeah! I voted. I wish ya the best of luck!

i voted, as will my minions. well, minion.

in any case, i will be invoking the Wookiee rule should the vote come out even remotely close (i'll supply the Wookiee).

btw - this is already weblog of the year, and has been for quite some time. i'm just saying.

Giddy is good! Giddy is great! Go Fish, go!

congratulations...i will vote asap...the link didn't seem to want to work just now...

Congrats - well deserved.

Félicitations:)

Well done!!!

That is awesome. Congrats on the nomination!

I'll vote for you when the site is back up! Keep up the good bloggin! You rawk!

What is this "Gawker" of which they speak?

Hey, that rocks. Glad to see my nomination helped, :). Love your site, you deserve the props.

Felicidades!! That's fabulous -- I'm off to cast a vote for you :)

awesome! I voted, of course. But how cool those awards are at SXSW in my hometown! Too bad I have to be back in Memphis on the 13th. :P

Oh wow, but Fish, if you win *knock on wood* (but of course you will) and you end up in Austin when I am, we must rendezvous!

What do you win?

Recognition? Yeah, that's it. Recognize!

i voted, and wish you best of luck. i am always giving props to your site!

I went to vote for another site in another category, then went through the others. I checked out each site, and voted for yours. I wish you the best of luck, and I am glad to have found your site.

You already have that. What else? An IPOD?

well, you definitely got my vote for weblog of the year, and it was a much-deserved nomination.

sadly, i cannot get on board with your recommendation for the best writing category...for, uh, you know...obvious reasons.

:)

best of luck!

Oh, I will totally vote for you...your site is waaay cooler than Wonkette!!

Better start writing your victory speech...

Congrats!

go fish!

Is this blog running against the Wonkette? If so, Why? Totally different blogs.

I voted for YYOU

Robotnik,

I think that's sorta the point of this category. It seems to represent taste. The question: "What's your favorite weblog?" doesn't really require them to be of any certain genre.

Hi Fish. Just found your blog through Brando @ One Child Left Behind. I LOVE IT! I'm catching up now. Great too find another NY blog. I tried to vote but the site was down...I'll try again later.

Come check me out if you get a sec.

Good luck and I'll be back!

You got my nomination and vote :)

You're up against some amazing competition: Gawker? Wonkette?? Wonkette's been on MTV!

Fish on VH1 (or MTV) can't be far behind.

Well, I guess you were in the NYT and on NPR. I suppose that's kind of like the same thing, different plane. But in the same category as Gawker, Wonkette and Boing Boing - you is set to BLOW UP!

Can I vote that Wonkette sucks bollix?? And can I throw in Drudge, also? Is there a site for THAT?

way to go.

I'm giddy for you. Odd, I normally don't do giddy.

Seriously though, congratulations! You'll have my vote as soon as the site is back up.

What a gorgeous site! Greetings from South Africa :-)
Your site definitely has my vote ... Good Luck!

Have been trying to vote for you for the past three days, but i keep getting the dreaded message of bandwith exceeded.. But i will keep trying...
