The winner is a blogger who has distinguished himself in manifesting a feisty, combative, damn-the-torpedoes conservatism, enriched with certified deep-thought, and sparkling with top-drawer aesthetics. Oh, and, er, he has linked me a lot (while I can’t disclose the mathematical details of the model used to choose the winner of this award, I will point out that the category, "linking Paco Enterprises", is not given an inordinately large weighting; the weight attached definitely does not exceed 75%).
Way to go, Robert Stacy McCain!
(Full Disclosure: I couldn’t find any useable photos of Stacy on his blog; they are all either curiously blurry – probably for security reasons – or unsuitable because of the inexplicable presence of Terry McAuliffe. The image on the gold medallion is based on a photo of the young Basil Rathbone, to whom Mr. McCain seems to bear a fair resemblance).
Update: Oops! Silly me. Did I say Basil Rathbone? I meant Cary Grant, of course.
75%! Haw! There's a digit missing on that one.
ReplyDeleteAnd then he queries.
ReplyDeleteDid you know that Basil Rathbone was a very, very accomplished swordsman?
Yojimbo: As a matter of fact, I knew that. I read somewhere that he found Errol Flynn's amateur swordsmanship so dangerous that he threatened to run him through.
ReplyDeleteThe blurriness is all about maintaining the illusion that I'm semi-attractive.
ReplyDeleteBasil Rathbone! Geez!
Hey, I think Basil Rathbone is a noble-looking fellow.
ReplyDeleteR.S. can't be TOO shabby - he's got six kids with his wife.
ReplyDeleteI always thought Basil Rathbone was attractive, in a very elegant way. Nothing pretty about him, but attractive nonetheless.
And Cary Grant could read me to sleep ANY day of the week.
TW: I sense a pissy mood - sukqx
I always liked George Saunders, myself. even being a baddie, he exuded class.
ReplyDeleteMight've been the voice, I guess.

Mojo: I'm with you. Nobody registered sinister charm and malign courtesy the way Sanders did.
