Close, but no cigar

award

Got a nice review from BloggyAward today.
Check it out.
I think the Hemingway template brought my grade down.
Looks better now though.
Oh, well…

  1. Congrats on the bloggy Miguel, and I for one don.t need the glitz and flashy to keep or spark my interest.
    And as God said to David Koresh when he got to heaven " Well Done"

    G-

    And "well done" he was…

  3. Michael–Excellent! Like Gerry, I'm not a bit fan of "busy" sites, if the content isn't intelligent then all the graphics in the world won't save it. But not the case here. Do you get an icon to put on your sidebar?

    How was the shish kebob?

    Deb-

    I didn't get a "Bloggy". ;(
    They did seem to like the site though but viewed it when I was using the "Hemingway" template.
    Too simple, too black and white for them. It's ok though. The review was still favorable.
    As far as the shish goes, my wife says it was fabulous (all six lbs of it).
    By the time I came in from cooking, it was all gone…
    Guess it was good.

  5. Michael,

    If I were giving a blog award I would give it to you. This has everything I like in a blog. The "flamboyance" stuff is what sends me away in a hurry. Your writing is pleasant and intelligent . The blog is a gem of understated elegance. I shall return.

    Thank you for the nice compliment.
    I love the "understated elegance" idea…
    Nice words to read from a new visitor.

  6. I don't think they said enough about your writing abilities to be honest….but then i'm biased…I want to be able to say when your a big famous author that I knew you when!
    Well done anyway mate..

    Cheers, Kelly

    Thanks, I need that after yesterday…

  7. That was a good review. It is nice to see that. Keep up the good stuff bud.

    Fuzz-

    I'd forgotten all about Bloggyaward.
    The review was favorable but they loathed my template.
    Can't judge a book by its cover, right?

  8. Good job, Michael. :) Although the Hemmingway theme is nice, it's not very user friendly. This is much better.

    I think you're right, Deb… ;)

  9. [...] Hmm…interesting; I clicked on the link because something struck me as odd. You know how sometimes things just don’t look right? I arrived at the destination page and realized with much horror why someone clicked the link for my site. I’m also assuming they left my site unfulfilled. To see what I’m talking about read my “Close, but no cigar” post and click on the bloggyaward link. [...]

  10. Your problem is fixed.

    Thanks for paying attention. Bloggy Awards is a bandwidth thief.

    Thanks, Puck.
    Yeah, it’s too bad.
    Seemed like such a good site initially.
    Live and learn, right?
    No harm, no foul…

    Thanks again,
    Michael

  11. I take back congradulating you getting that review by the bloggy scumbags. You deserve the recognition but not from those boneheads. So I will bestow upon you a newly created just for you the “Gerry” It comes with a keep up the good work
