Will you cross the picket line for the Bloggers' Choice Awards?
Mbmtpmt
Sorry, I'm nursing a swollen jaw from an aching, infected molar. I'll speak slowly.
As many of you know, due to the Writers' Strike and the actors’ refusal to cross the picket line, The Golden Globes Awards are cancelled. Instead of winners (some) boring us to tears with their endless list of people to thank, this year we will be treated to a boring-as-watching-paint-dry, one-hour press conference announcing the winners.
*yawn*
Although we have had to suffer, along with the little people caught in the middle of two squabbling sides, through repeats and gag-me-with-a-spoon Reality Glut Shows, (I personally haven’t noticed), I believe we have seen enough amazing TV shows and performances during this abbreviated season to continue with our Bloggers' Choice Awards show.
I want to know before I begin the time consuming process of nominations, are you willing to cross the picket line and attend the ceremony?
If so, I need volunteers for the following:
A) Red Carpet Duties
B) Performers *
C) Announcers *
D) Studio Audience members *
E) Set designers
*come as yourself or one of your favorite celebrity
I am going to use the same categories as the last Awards program. They are listed below. If someone can create a poll for me (aww, toothache) I would appreciate it. PM me so we can discuss. This time I promise to “count” the nominees (kidding!). The nominations are open to all shows.
What were they thinking Award? (original program)
This is given out to the monstrous error in judgment by the idiot TV Executives and Producers who think they know what we like better than the viewers. Nominate the show and Network or Cable channel it airs on

Hey there, Big Sis! I'm sorry to hear about your tooth. Are you going to see the dentist soon?
I'd like to participate in the Bloggers' Choice Awards this year, although I'd like to try something other than announcing this time. Can I be a presenter?
When can we start voting? And do we PM our votes to you? I had a lot of fun last time, so as you can see I'm jumping the gun a bit.

I hope your tooth feels better. I hate to see you in pain.
How recent does a show have to be to vote for people? Do they have to be from this season or from January of 2007? Hopefully the show will work this year on the originally scheduled day!

Take care.

Hi everybody! I would smile but my tooth HATES air...my dentist appointment is Thursday, Lord help me to last that long. I'm almost catatonic from the endless throbbing.
We're going to do the same as last time. PM me with who you would like to attend as (yourself or celebrity). I will PM you with the category to present and winner. Fill out the nomination list and post it. No need to PM that to me. If someone does the Poll it may make it easier for me, but fill out the nomination list anyway.

Vee, I'm so sorry about your tooth! I can't imagine how much pain your in.
I would love to participate in the award show, but you know I can only be in attendence if it's Mon-Fri. from 8-5. I don't have a computer at home. Now don't yell at me about getting with the times! I'm on the computer all day at work and when I get home it's family time. 
I know most award shows are on the weekends, so if I miss it I'll catch the *rerun* on Monday.

Hi Revso sorry about your tooth & that you have to wait until Thursday to get it taken care of.
I'm not sure if I can participate in the bloggers' awards or no. It will depend on when it is. We will be having company for the next few weekends but I'll try to pop in if they don't stay too late.
For voting, is this for the regular season? What is the time frame for when the shows aired?
