BELLA AWARD


I have been awarded the Bella Award from Kulkuri...this is what your supposed to do.

The Bella Rules:

1) Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award, and his or her blog link.
2) Pass the award to 15 other blogs that you've newly discovered. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

Kulkuri over at yooper in crackerland..I love Kulkuri...makes me laugh almost every time I go over and visit.

These 15 blogs are not done in any order except for the first one..and I'm still pushing Kevin's blog because he's one of the funniest people on the Internet, and one of the best people I have ever known..Even if he does like that moose loving canerdian Rox more than me.So...stop by and say howdy..a few of you have and are now regular readers..like pom, sage, ted and Doris. His blog is:.........well, it doesn't fall under any sort of category...he talks about Cleveland, his past adventures(which are many and varied), his job, his partner and kids, and just his observations in general..He's a yafta...
1. http://casadr.wordpress.com/
2.http://buzzardbilly.blogspot.com/ My Appalachian friend. Who's outlook on her word is not only hysterical but spot on..She is one of the wittiest people I read...She cracks me up ..you will really really love her blog.
3. http://thefuturewasyesterday.blogspot.com/ This is a partner blog with the futurewasyesterday and Gadfly, you remember Gaddy?..He came down from upper Texas to West last year for Westfest. If he comes this time he gets the recliner and I get my bed...ha
4.http://rosemarys-attic.blogspot.com/ I heart Rosemary. Why? Because Rosemary is all heart. It shows in her blog. Go by and say howdy to my friend. She has a biiiiiiiig heart.(just saying)
5.http://willyorwonthe.blogspot.com/ I'm a late bloomer with Willym, but he has become one of my favorite people. Plus he's got 2 new babies (puppies) that I get to enjoy even though they are all the way across the ocean in Italy.He posts pictures of Rome and the other places he visits and that's worth the price of admission alone.
6.http://sling-sling.blogspot.com/ How much do I love Sling? He is the proud owner of one of my 2 favorite West Texas Trojan headhunter t-shirts...I mean I love those 2 t-shirts..You can't get them any more as they aren't politically correct..Having a Trojan with a baseball bat on your high school t-shirt and referring to them as head hunters smacks of violence..so they quit making them..I have one left..sigh* But I love Sling enough to give him one of my treasured shirts..along with a bottle of Dublin Dr Pepper and the West News Paper.
7.http://godsrbored.blogspot.com/ Oh man, now here is a blog to visit..She is a druid to start with..she the leader of a troop of faeries has 2 children she refers to as the heir and the spare. Now this will be very telling...how much do I love her and her blog? She's a die hard Eagles fan and hates the Cowboys as much as I hate the Eagles. But we are friends..so there. She is, to the best of my knowledge the only Eagle fan friend I have. (say that 3 times fast)There might be others but are to afraid to come forth..Anne is a'feared of 'nuttin.'
8.http://intenseguy.blogspot.com/ I heart intense guy...But he has this weird obsession with orange cone heads...ahhhdon't know...just the way he floats...
9.http://ghostofruby.blogspot.com/ ahh, the wonderful Mr. Billy Pilgrim. One of 2 of my favorite bloggers..If I was younger and there wasn't a Mrs. Pilgrim I'd move to Canada and help him take care of the lovely pitty bull dog Miss Ruby. But I've heard enough about the misses, not to make a move on him. He loves turtles, Ruby, his kids and cones..Not in that order.
10.http://bluebeerriver.blogspot.com/..My buddy Tex from Oklahoma. Yeah, I know, but it makes sense. He used to be from Texas. He also is the owner of a lovely pitty bully dog, Bob. He is also in many ways the polar opposite of me..For guns, (me not so much) against global warming(I'm starting to lean) and for legalizing marijuana(there we agree). But there are many things we agree on and that's what's important..He, along with Billy, Babs, Kevin, Nitwit, and some others have been with me from almost day one here in blog city. We actually started out on another site, but we got banned..we wus baaaaaaaaaaaaaad. Oh yeah...he's also big on conspiracy theories...which makes for some great reading. He also has some of the best headers on his post of any blog out there..Really!..
11.http://heartinhand.wordpress.com/...My Canaderern friend of the north..I have this thing for funny Canadernians..and she is one of he funniest..I think she and I were sisters in another life..If you like me? You'll like Rox. Promise.
12.http://thepoodleanddogblog.typepad.com/the_poodle_and_dog_blog/
Jan is like my sister, mother, brother, uncle, kid, best friend, etc. We email each other all the time..She sends me something I will send smart ass reply, she reply's back, and the race is on..we try to out smart ass answer each other..sometimes I'll cry uncle and some times she will...they go on for days..She has a great animal blog...is owned by some cute little poodles, and has a sick twisted sense of humor ...just like mine..sometimes she will say something and I'll think...I could have said that...and wished I had...Trust me..you'll love her..
13.http://meetingpersephone.blogspot.com/ Here's another lady with a big heart. She's a witch...I heart her..She is the one that got the pay pal up and running for Annie...Go by and say howdy and thank her for me...Not that I haven't ...but it would be nice ...
14.http://oldenoughtomoan.blogspot.com/ This is another blogger that I have been reading for along time..He doesn't come over and read me any more...but that's ok...He has bigger things to worry about than what is going on in my life..He is battling cancer..Has been for a long time. He's smart, funny and one of the bravest people I have ever met..Stop by and wish him well...if you read some of his back posts, you'll be an admire also.
15.http://lettinggo-sageweb.blogspot.com/...My little buddy sage....if I was going to bat for the other side? I'd wanna be on her team. She does great little videos of Amy the pig. Has a great dog named Homer and the neighbors cat spends more time at her house than it's own.
So............these are the 15 blogs I picked...You know how hard this was?...Holy shit!...I have 50+ blogs on my blog roll..But a lot of the ones I was going to pick were picked by someone else..so...these are mine for now..I love you all...you are my family....but the ones not mentioned are my family too...

Jackie, thank you so much for the award, the candles were more than enough for any one man but to receive an award too!
I am sorry I have not been passed your way for a while but I know you understand why.
I will try and pop in when I can give your excellent blog the time it deserves.
OETM

Pom said...

Thank you for the award, sweetie. It's always nice to be thought of.

Hope you have a great Mother's Day.

texlahoma said...

Thanks for the award Jackie!

sageweb said...

THanks for the award...very cool.so far every blog you have turned me on too is a winner.
I will try to take the picture of my new hat this week...we meant to do it last week but I got drunk and had a lesbian fish fry.

Willym said...

If I could remember how to, I would blush! Grazie tanti e baci... molti baci carina!

And now I've add some winners to my read regular list.

billy pilgrim said...

Rocky (Racquel) said...

You have such a good hear, JS.

How the hell are ya?

Buzzardbilly said...

My appreciation is unbounded! I will blog about it later today or tomorrow because there's that whole picking 15 people thing, and I'm assuming I'm not allowed to send one back toward you or Gods Are Bored. Dang. There was two of my faves already gone.

Thank you!

rosemary said...

Thank you JackieSue. My heart needed a boost today. You are the dearest and the best.

Sling said...

Thank You for the award Jackie! :)
I was wearing my Headhunter T-Shirt when I got it because I never take it off..seriously.
People are like,'You really should wash that T-Shrt!',and I'm all like,'NO Jackies boobs were in it!',and they're all like,'Dude!..'
..It's like that.

Linda said...

My blogs to read list just got longer.

your drrrrty lovah said...

Thank yah darlin'!!! And you know I love you like a Blogmom...even if it's made creepy by the fact that you want to sex me up...secretly you know I'm flattered. And I am honored that you put me first on that list for a reason. Really! I am! You know how unpopular and weird I am so that means a lot. As for Roxita Bonita...honaye, my bestest blog friend position may soon have an opening again. That woman done tossed me over for her 17 minutes of Canerdian warm weather. I never hear from her anymore.

Anne Johnson said...

Thanks for your kind words about "The Gods Are Bored!" I promise to root for the Cowboys ... when they play the Redskins and the Giants, but not if there's a playoff spot on the line, only if they have tanked, or the Eagles have tanked, or both.

rainywalker said...

Well good for you and West may become the capital of Texas yet.

Unknown said...

Yellow Dog Granny: I do not understand #3, thefuturewasyesterday. You were not referring to the Gadfly when you immediately spoke of Gaddy, were you?

Dan'l's blog partner is the Gadfly all right but she's very much a female, has never been to West and knows you only by reading your blog (but would love to know you in person). She is a widow, has a few kids scattered over the continent, and is the third partner with me and Granny Ann of Is America Burning.

Does your friend Gaddy use the name "Gadfly"? Does he have a blog?

Lilly said...

2am? Oh my, are you addicted because I also was on here until 2am this morning. Now I have to go and check out this list because with your sense of humor then these blogs are bound to be good. Looks like I will be up to 4am now. Oh what the hell who needs sleep. Its entirely overrated!!

KrisMrsBBradley said...

I will totally go through and check them all out!

Jan said...

Thanks so much for the kind words, we really are two of a kind, getting extinct, and everyone is glad, aren't we? And thanks for the list of blogs. If you like them, I'm sure to.

Heidi said...

Thank you for mentioning me. That is so sweet. Congrats on your award!

yellowdoggranny said...

all of you ...thank you...you inspire me, make me laugh, make me cry, make me think, make me change my mind...you are the wind beneath my wings..i heart you all...

Rox said...

First off, thank you JackieSue! I think of you as my blog mom, or future me, I can't decide which. I just know we are like two peas...

Ahhh, that Blessed Blohio Retard! He thinks I can't read the smack he talks about me when I'm out frolicking in the 17 minutes of summer!

Intense Guy said...

Awww..... Thank youse YDG!!!

And just to clear the air, I like cones and hate barrels...

How the thing with the cones started...*Hugs*
