Blogger Of The Year


A person who I am grateful to be able to call a friend, Maggie Thurber, was today awarded the American's For Prosperity (AFP) Blogger of the Year award. 

Maggie's efforts in so many areas are in fact worthy of such praise. She contributes to the Toledo Free Press as a columnist, hosts the "Eye on Toledo" radio show on 1370 WSPD here in Toledo, and writes for her own blog Thurber's Thoughts just to name a few. 

Maggie's work has been inspiration to many of us out here in our own efforts at blogging; and the friendship, help, and advice that she has given to me personally is something for which I will always be appreciative. 

Congratulations Maggie for your efforts, and to the AFP for their discerning judgment in choosing you for this award. You set the bar for many of us out here, and provide inspiration to a higher level of achievement.

Roland,

It's obvious that in publishing my nonsense, Michael Miller has opened a Pandora's Box of nonsense. I cannot help but believe that the insight that either of you could provide with your wealth of experience in the area would be readily accepted as well.

HT,

Placing my accomplishment on the same level as Maggie's would be as flattering as it would be ridiculous. That being said, thanks. Any time a voice is given a wider audience is a good thing.
