Over at Tumeke! Bomber Bradbury is, like many other commentators, giving out awards for sterling performances across New Zealand's political and entertainment spheres.
His choice of Michael Laws and his thinking behind awarding the mascared-one a tinny gong made me laugh.
"I imagine him after a long day of stoking talkback bigotry going straight home to shimmy out of his human skin to start swallowing small rodents."
Ele Ludemann at Homepaddock notes that Garth George was the recipient of an award for services to journalism - it's a topsy-turvy world indeed!
*Update - Scott at Imperator Fish gave John Key an award also
"Member of the Order of the Ostrich (MOO)
This award goes to those prominent persons whose response to difficulty has been to place their heads in the sand.
John Key, for services to doing nothing. His ability keep smiling while our economy continues its gradual descent down the OECD rankings will surely see him re-elected in 2011. If blandness and lack of imagination are virtues in our leaders, then surely Key is one of the greatest. When asked by the Herald what his favourite hobby was, he said "golf". Yawn.
Quite right.
