Bingkee from I Love/Hate America has bestowed the Power Blog Award upon VirusHead. Thanks Bingkee! I love these awards that circulate among fellow bloggers. It’s a graphic nod of the head to enjoyable blogs. The original Power Blog award required all sorts of rules to be posted and ten other blogs to be named. All that has dropped off, and that’s for the better. Awards like this have become a bit less viral. I don’t think many people really try…

They both got angry, but held their tempers. They both looked a little silly smiling when they were hearing digs aimed…
Found a new viral quiz center. The creators and users seem very young, and I sincerely hope that explains the rampant mis-spellings. Not to quibble, but even granting leeway for the slang, it’s depressingly sub-literate. Educators -> fail. Love this cat image, though. Personality Type Quiz Intellectual Personality Type You’re really smart, obviously, but you’re more book smart than street smart.
