What do you do if you are MORE than just a Mommy (or not a mommy at all), but less than the web definition of a geek (you know all the words to the Star Trek intro, but nothing about javascript or any other code)?
You, my friend, may be a DORK.
OK....Okokokok.......WOW!!...This is perhaps.....well most likely...maybe even kinda....the single best award for dork EVER!!
Lil excited here.....deep breath....deep breath......
Ok....1st and foremost......I'd like to thank my lovely wife/campaign manager. Without her endless..daily..soliciting of...everybody...we've ever met in IRC...some we have not talked to for years...on purpose...this would not have been possible. Her arm twisting at work....and quick learning of chicago style voting....I salute her!! :)
To our extended family who will no longer accept our phone calls or e-mails....I say...Thank YOU!!
To any who actually read my post, and voted just because it was funny...I thank you!!
I..as your new Prince of Dork....will hold this position with pride...Dorkiness....and.....well...Winter....na na na na nah!! :)
Ok I might not of won this one but if you go look now I might be able to win the next Dorkoff!! My honey has posted a video of me on my blog and threated me if I take it down. I might as well go with the flow. I am a dork and I LOVE IT.
I think there may be some misunderstanding about how one qualifies for dorkbloggers. All you really need to do is accept your inner dorkiness. And blog. Say you know a lot of java script but cant recite lines from all six star wars episodes on command? You my friend are still a dork. Say you know zero about writing code or web design and nothing from sci-fi but you embarrass yourself in public on a regular basis? Welcome dorky one. Youve found your home.
Dorkbloggers will never revoke your button. Because everyone has those dorky moments (okay, some more than others), we just declare it upfront. You don't have to be a total dork (although we are), you just have to be familiar with the thought process--it can go one of two ways:
1> I cannot believe I just did/said that, maybe no one will notice
.
2> I cannot wait to tell (insert best friend's name here) that I did/said that. What a dork I am!
In case number one, you have yet to embrace your inner dork. It's time to let go and just roll with it!In case number two, you've probably already blogged about it, may even have had a t-shirt made. You, my friend, need a dorkbloggers button.

Congratulations!!! There was never a doubt in my mind after like the 2nd day of voting that you were going to win. ;)
I hope you got your "Prince of Dorkness" button, if not I will email it to you.
Ironically Mert........That is almost word for word what my father said!!! :)
June 2007, Zig, and I am swiping that crown from you!!
I would tell you what my plan is, but then I don't think anyone else needs any help:) Y'all are way to dorky!!
Truer words were never spoken Winterskibunny... we are all way too dorky.
Including you :P You might have a chance next time, better start campaigning now though. The competition is fierce! ;)
