Shameless self-promo

Posted by: Sister Toldjah on November 14, 2005 at 7:22 pm

(I have decided to stop bumping up this post – I am tired of looking at it as the first thing I see when I visit, and I bet ya’ll are too :). I’ll post small reminders at the end of each new post. Thanks to all who have voted so far!)

ta tump, ta tump, ta tumpFellow blogger Aaron is composing a blogger Deck of Cards, appropriately labelled “Deck O’ Bloggers”, and the vote is on this weekend for what female bloggers will make the “Hearts” suit of the deck. Would you kindly cast a vote for yours truly?

xoxoxThere’s quite a bit of competition out there, and even if I don’t make the final cut – it’s the thought behind the vote that counts. The poll is on the left hand side of the page (scroll down a bit). Looks like either The Anchoress or Michelle Malkin will win the coveted Queen of Hearts spot, but there are still plenty more ‘hearts’ left in the deck :grin: I have to finish in the top 11 to make the deck.

Thanks in advance! Voting on this ends at midnight EDT on Monday 11:00 AM EDT Tuesday (changed due to site downtime Sunday – Aaron is on West coast time, so it’s 8 AM West coast time, 11 Eastern time Tuesday morning).

Saturday PM Update: 27 votes and counting! Thanks to all who have voted so far. Still got two days left for those who haven’t yet. If any of you out there who generally don’t agree with me will vote for me, I promise to take it easy on liberals for one whole day. (I wonder if that would be considered bribing ……:?: On second thought, scratch that deal! Heh.)

Sunday AM Update: I’ve gotten emails from a few people stating that they are getting a “Forbidden” message when they try to visit the site today. I’ve gotten it, too. I guess the server is too jammed up or something. Please try again later today.

Sunday PM Update: Looks like it’s up and running again. Make sure to cast your vote! :)

Monday PM Update: The deadline to cast your vote has now been changed to 11 AM EDT Tuesday. Aaron’s site was down for a bit yesterday, so that’s why the deadline changed. So if you haven’t voted, please make sure to do so before that time – and if you can get a friend to vote for me too, the more the merrier ;) As of this writing (4:05 PM EDT) I’m up to 84 votes which puts me in 7th place (which would be enough to get me into the Hearts suit) but the push for votes by those supporting other bloggers is on. I still need more votes to keep me in the top 10.

      Well, I voted and found out you only have three votes so far. Maybe you have to use that “Democratic Voting Style”, you know, get out the dead people, use the absentee balloting, etc. (j/k) Good luck Sister!

    2. LOL! I sorta feel like one of the many third party candidates who ran in the last CA election for governor ;)

      Thanks for the vote!

    3. Denise says:

      You got my vote!

    4. Dana R. Pico says:

      OK, I cast my vote for you. After all, you blogrolled me! :lol:

    5. Lorica says:

      YAY!!!! Tied for 14th now. Only need a few votes to get you into the deck. I hope you make it cuz you certainly are aces with most of us. :mrgreen: – Lorica

    6. Jack Deth says:

      I voted for you, SisterToldjah: :cool:

      Though I don’t see you as a Face card, you’re definitely in the 9 through 4 of Hearts.

      Jack.

      John Edwards repents in Sunday’s New York Times. “I was wrong….to vote for the war in 2002.” 1 down and 77 to go. Peace

      The next off topic comment you try to post will be deleted, Steve. –ST

    8. sanity says:

      You have my vote.

      I enjoy your blog very much.

      Unfortunately getting the website to vote was a real pain. The traffic load going there must be enormous.

    9. Baklava says:

      What would you do going forward Steve? Pull out the troops tomorrow? They are there now and I’ve asked you what do you do? Does John Edwards advocate pulling our troops out now? No.:cool:

      “Would you kindly cast a vote for yours truly?”

      Yours is but to ask, sweetness. :oops:

      So let it be written; so let it be done.

      My vote, apparently, was #29.

      You were in eleventeenth place when I was there…

    11. Lorica says:

      Steve how does that have ANYTHING to do with this thread?? LOL

    12. Lisa says:

      You got my vote, Sista :D

    13. Dana R. Pico says:

      Camojack, you have stolen my line (which I have appropriated, many times, from the late Yul Brynner).

      If only I had his voice as well.

      And Jack, with a face like Sis’, she ought to be a face card! She loks good enough to be a Carolina Panthers’ cheerleader.

      Oh, wait, scratch that last . . .

    14. Thanks all – And Dana and Camo, you both are making me blush! :oops:

      Note to all: Please don’t respond to Steve’s off topic comment. He’s been informed that the next one he attempts to post won’t be posted. Let’s keep this thread fun :)

    15. camojack says:

      I’ll bet you’re even cuter when you blush, Sis… :grin:

    16. Baklava says:

      How about this woman for queen of hearts? :wink:

      OK. She’s not a blogger. We can bend the rules!

    17. Lorica says:

      It amazes me how many votes The Anchoress has. I remember her when she was just little Allegra posting on Lucianne.com. I use to run thru all the topics just to read her posts. :lol:

    18. She’s doing great, isn’t she?

      I’m hoping that more cast votes overnight for yours truly – the 9th slot has gained big time on me thanks to a push from a bigger blogger. I need more votes!
