Okay! Okay! Okay! Alright already!  Geez, while you're at it,
why don't you give me paper cut and pour lemon juice on it!   ;)
(Marsha had BETTER get that line!)

Let's see....

1.  Rising star or revelation of the year:

I've met three women on this net that are truly stars in my book:
Sonia, Marsha, and Michelle.  Sad to say Michelle is no longer on the
net, but she has a special place in my heart.  Let's just say
tossup between Sonia and Marsha.

2.  Wittiest poster:

Rick.

3.  Most consistent initiator and promoter of dialogue:

nobody's fault but mine.  I had to do it--there was too much talk about
NON musical entities that I know absolutely nothing about.  And
of course, I would bore you if I asked dumb physics questions...
So I had to do it for my own sake...I'm glad it benefitted the chat
on the list.  Now, let's try to get some of the others to come up
with queries as time consuming as mine!  :)

4.  Funkiest poster:

ROTCOD ZZAJ.

5.  Nastiest poster:

Drummer, for his incessive whining about Vinnie....   :)

6.  Friendliest and kindest poster:

Marco, hands down.

7.  Clueless poster award:

Me, at 3 am.  LW, on occasion.  Marsha, when she freaked out. ;)

8.  Grossest musical mistake in a post:

a.  LW, for oft leaping the boundaries of musical topics.
b.  Me, for doing the same to LW on the subject of child discipline.
c.  "It's just Pat" syndrome with Ilia and others on net who thought he was
    a female.

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

Sonia, but after some thought, ROTCOD ZZAJ has had some bizarre
reviews of his own stuff, as I recall...

10.  Sexiest poster:

the Mammoth mammaries, the Carol O' Lickme, the Thumper, the Libby Doe...
the one and only Carol Watson from Bumfuck, Alberta.

11.  Most playful poster:

see 10 above.  Her mind and my private parts shall meld into one...

12.  Best allmusic flamer:

n.n.

13.  Most astonishing confession or personal revelation:

a.  Your parents are all aliens from another planet.
b.  Aliester Crowley is my spirit guide.
c.  I am 286 years old.
d.  I am naked right now.
e.  My normal day attire consists of whipped cream and a feather taped to
    my forehead.
f.  I eat cannibal.
g.  I am only three inches tall, and I have a beautiful female
    secretary typing this stuff in for me while I nestle comfortably
    in her cleavage.
h.  I actually live in Bumfuck, Alberta, and I watch Carol undress
    every night using surveillance equipment--equipment I acquired
    by means of my Illuminati connections.  fnord.
i.  Rock and roll never happened.
j.  Elvis died on the toilet for you.  Hallelujah!
    Now go to the altar and proceed to leave your offerings.
k.  Gary Glitter is making a comeback album.
l.  Eating Twinkies, Beer Nuts and Moon Pies will give you magical powers.
m.  My middle name really starts with a "@".
n.  Lance Link is a God incarnate.
o.  Paul Lynde is a God incarnate.
p.  Marco and I are Siamese twins, separated at birth.
q.  Your computer is not really hooked up to any network, you're
    actually tapping into your higher consciousness.
r.  Sound can also tumble and fluff your clothes.
s.  Carol is naked right now.
t.  Everyone else on the net is naked but you.
u.  Your clock is two minutes fast.
v.  Peter Gabriel is naked right now.
w.  The Rutles are bigger than God.
x.  All music is in 4/4; you're just not listening carefully enough.
y.  Bob Marley never smoked pot.
z.  All Led Zeppelin concerts were lip-synched, Robert Plant
    considered breakdancing during his fantasy sequence in the film,
    and Jimmy Page was really Eric Clapton before he did Michelob
    commercials.

Aw, heck if I know!

14.  Strangest Allmusic post:

They're all strange.

15.  Classiest Allmusicker:

Marco.

16.  Most dazzling all-around poster:

MHB.

17.  Keeper of the Allmusic flame award:

Now, let me get some sleep...

Mike.
