Jeff Jarvis tells us why he doesn’t like awards. Any awards. Even The Bloggies. Great last line here….

Cream rises. All that. (And, yes, Glenn Reynolds quickly gets promoted to Hall of Fame so everyone else can play.)

A Small Victory says thanks but no thanks to The Bloggies….I want to play fair.

And because it’s about blogging and the blogosphere, what would all this kafuffle be without….The Anti-bloggies.

Wouldn’t it be nice if more “Christian Websites” were like this. Right off the front page, it gives me an opportunity to be active.

Oriana Fallaci
What a facinating woman. The NY Observer’s article on the 72 year old writer of “The Rage and The Pride,” rightly points out her amazing courage.

“My life,” Ms. Fallaci wrote in her book’s preface, “is seriously in danger.”

That is a basic and a given.

Prior to her new book, Ms. Fallaci had achieved international fame as a journalist and author—the beautiful, outspoken, brilliant “La Fallaci”—who had covered the Vietnam War and conducted spirited, combative interviews with celebrities—Arthur Miller, Orson Welles, Hugh Hefner, Sammy Davis Jr.—as well as world leaders like Indira Gandhi, Golda Meir, the Shah of Iran, Ariel Sharon, the Ayatollah Khomeini, Yasir Arafat and Deng Xiaoping (or, as she called some of them, “those bastards who decide our lives”). Henry Kissinger said that his interview with Ms. Fallaci was “the most disastrous conversation I ever had with any member of the press.”
