goes to Hal R for dousing occasional hotspots of conflict on this site with good humour and wisdom!

Thanks to those awesome viners who have schooled me so much over the past few weeks, I know, I ask alot of questions. A very special award goes to Ltapilot ~ the unexpected gifts are groovy & played often. I really dig the Soul Revue PEACE

Cosmic Badger gets the second "old school" award for coolnessCosmic Badger gets the second "old school" award for coolness! and if you wanna or gotta ask why, I'm afraid you would never get considered for a nomination of said award. ( -: This rarely presented honour is the epitome of dead.net fictional awards in my most humble of humboldt opinions. love and peace,

Thank you folks for this great ride and your recent efforts.I didn't know that badgers could speak but this one sure does, guess that's what makes him cosmic. If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. Wiliam Blake

Awards are I think deserved by some of the folks associated with this site. Most of them have been given a pretty hard time at various points these last months, but they are all doing a lot right now to restore morale. So thanks to (in no particular order) Marye for heroic efforts redesigning the Vines (with additional awards to Oroboros and others who helped make this happen) Izzie for resurrecting the 'Today in Grateful Dead History' feature after dealing with all that wildfire trauma Blair Jackson for initiating some welcome 2-way communication and helping to break down some of the prevalent conspiracy theories (this is of course not good for us satirists, so we retain the right to invent some new conspiracy theories) David Gans for speaking up and for GDH and Sirius:clearly making many folks very happy. David Lemieux for all he has done and is doing in the Vault and for suffering in silence! Don't know if they have started putting something in the water over there, but whatever the case you are all worthy winners! As for Rhino records, well the stubborn pachyderm is definitely trundling in the right direction and they may have now squeezed onto the awards short list for positive signs of recovery from chronic 'Silent Rhino Syndrome' , for Road Trips and for making some very encouraging assurances. Maybe next time round ;-) . I'm still not sure if rhinos respond better to carrots or sticks though!
