Subject:      i'd like to thank all those men who've given me the big one...

... that's part of my acceptance speech for being multi-nominated for
the sexiest poster...  Thanks alot, guys. Aand here I thought it was my
wit and charm and not the size of my double entendres that counted.

My holidays were ok, though my birthday sucked -- the hockey player took me to
a cabaret that was supposed to have a four piece band, but it turned out to be
two women, a karioke (sp?) machine, and their bodyguard.  They played nothing
but country tunes and a few lame attempts at Elvis.  Blah... I had to hold the
hockey player back -- he wanted to throw things and he kept yelling at them to
play "Freebird" and chiding them for putting guitar players out of work...   :)
It was also the coldest night of the year at -36 degrees.

Anyways... here's my votes:

>1. Rising star or revelation of the year.

It's a tie between Rick and Walt (complete with braided leg hair)...

>2. Wittiest poster.  (Rolling on the Floor Laughing Prize)

None other than Pony Boy...  ahhhhhhhhhh ha ha   Though Bloomie's not slouch
with his lucious straight lines....

>3. Most consistent initiator & promoter of dialogue. (Threadmaker Award)

Another tie (I'm into bondage today) between Hammer-man and M Cubed.

>4. Funkiest poster.

Sonia... oh yes... funk me gently...  :)

>5. Nastiest poster (Painful Plague Prize)

Wort the Wart seems to have had unprotected sex with Ruxxie and caught his
disease.

>6. Friendliest and kindest Allmusicker.

Marco, whose so sweet that even my catholic grandmother would approve.

>7. Clueless poster award. (Frippie Prize)

Ummm... Lemmy, oh course....

>8. Grossest musical mistake in a post.  (Ignoramus Prize, aka Renato
>Barahona Award for misattribution of _Ionisation_)

Well, I'm surprised Tim didn't spank me for referring to Jethro Tull in the
singular...   :)  Duh!  BTW, Timmy, you give great tape.

>9. Most original review of a tape, album or CD.

Sonia's review of Urban Ambience's _Flow_ was purrfect... definitely a keeper.

>10. Sexiest poster.  (Libby Doe Prize)

If I voted for myself, I'd be admitting to being a chronic masturbator...

If Steve "Tongue-Bass" Bulmer were here, he'd win my vote... he's the only one
who could keep up to my libidinous messages and come back with something that
would make ME blush...

But since he's disappeared (probably busy bonin' chicks in his new Saab), I'll
have to go with Mr. Dewargasm, himself, Tim "net.stud" J (girls, he looks fab
in shorts)... gee does Prokovfiev have a 69th Symphony?  And since Libby's
poly-sexual, I'd have to include Marsha the Redhead, Jenna... ummmm and don't
forget Sampson, one of Rev. Dave's wooly flock... and MHB and his jar on mint
jelly and John McIntyre cuz he's a celt... and Chucky because he's got such a
cute drawl... and... oh shit, I could go on forever...   :*)

>11. Most playful poster.

The dualing Latinos!!

Renato... and his evil disco-luving leisure suited twin. He keeps trying to
sign off, but keeps coming back when I knock on his virtual door and ask him
to come out to play. And you can tell the lil horny inquisitor that I've
finally got a GIF (I feel like a true computer geek now, I GIF, therefore I am)
and I'm sending it up this week.  Tell him to put on his UUDECODEr ring.

And... Chucky, who doesn't come out to play near as often as I like, but he's
just so much darn fun... that is, when he's not jerking off while peering at
reference books.   ahhhhhhhh ha ha...   :*)

>12. Best Allmusic flamer.

I'd say n.n. but with a caveat that he doesn't go looking for flames (though
those pesky newbies often find him).  ;*)

As far as a tag-team, it'd have to be the Sarcasm Squad featuring Tim and
Jenna "Slam It" Cole-Steele.

And the most elegant flames cum from EdD tHe MaDd our list poet laureate... he
gives me goosie nipples... oooo baby!

>13. Most astonishing confession or personal revelation.

Ken's and Renato's musical memoirs...  and Michael Bloom admitting that he
actually enjoyed some reggae music.   :)

>14. Strangest Allmusic post.

ROTCOD JAZZ, no doubt... sometimes when I read his messages, his lingo forces
me to check my surroundings to make sure I'm on the right planet.   :)

>15. Classiest Allmusicker.

Duh Beer... he's such a gentleman, both personally and virtually.  And he knows
good pizza!   :)

>16. Most dazzling all-around poster.

Well, I'll continue the MHB ego stroking by aiming a little lower and towards
the middle.  :*)   I'm constantly in awe of Bloomie... he hasn't been on the
list a year yet he's contributed so much.  I admit to feeling some
responsibility for this, since I'm the one who talked him into signing onto the
list last January (he had already been putting up with my shenanigans for two
years prior).  :)

>17. Keeper of the Allmusic flame award.  (To the person who epitomizes
>the spirit & ideals -- whatever they might be -- of the list.  This is the
>highest honor that can be accorded an Allmusicker.)

John McIntyre is my hero... he's so cool, I'd like to serve him in a cone and
lick him all over.

My resolution for '93?  To meet all of the above people, in the flesh.  I adore
each and everyone...

Here's to ALLMUSIC...  *clink*   *slurp*   *gulp*  *belch*

New Year's Smooches to all!
