I have been nominated for a Nobel Prize

[patcox2]

Yup, its true. I had my wife write up the nomination and mail it to Sweden this morning. She thinks I should win the Peace Prize for my work here on DU, tirelessly manning the ramparts of cliche and mixed metaphor right alongside Will Pitt, fighting with the last fibre of my being (notice the british spelling? Thats to make the tired cliche even more pompous) against the forces of evil and repression As of now, its on my resume. That should get me some call backs, huh?

3. Hey, I made a bench (by hand, no less) for my wife

and she was so impressed with how it turned out (really well, if I say so myself) that she sent in a letter to the Nobel folks. She nominated me for the Nobel Prize for Handcrafted Benches. I am just so excited! I mean it is an honor just to be nominated, but if I win, it means I'll be eligible for all of those rich folk tax cuts that, up till now, haven't even come close to applying to me! Anyway, I'll still be the same guy I was before my nomination (just better than all you non-nominated folks).

4. Bill O'Reilly has one, why not you?

[ruggerson]

7. Congrats, you are now credentialed to be an official Terri Schiavo witness

[Junkdrawer]

8. Now, it isn't official until you get a Return Receipt...

to prove that the committee received the nomination.

I think that's how Dr. Hammesfahr worked it?

9. Welcome to the club! I heard it through the grapevine that I have been

nominated for a Nobel, a Pulitzer, a Peabody, an Emmy and an Oscar.I need company.

10. Looks like the place for momentous announcements...

I've decided to pull the plug...

Any higher functions ceased some time ago...

Most of it's brain has been replaced with
inert goo...

Many Doctors (Alterman for instance) are advising
it's a Persistent Vegetative State (PVS)...

The fact it's alive at all is due to a feeding
tube which supplies it with erectile dysfunction
commercials and soap ad revenue...

Yup, sad to say, it's time to end it's misery.

So long TeeVee... My old friend. May you go to
a better place.

No one better try stopping me.

11. Nice use of pompous lanuage

One question.

If you weren't being pompous, would you spell it "pompos"?

[paineinthearse]

12. I'll nominate you for a series of day passes to the WH press area.

If you can stand the crap.
