NerdInside for Person of the Year!

Okay..here's the deal. NPR's Wait Wait Don't Tell Me news quiz is having its person of the year nominations.

I think it would be funny if we could get enough of us to nominate "NerdInside: A linux user from FlashKit.com" for Person of the Year. :p

If enough of us do this...NerdInside will become famous and get lots of money...or at least get mention on national radio.

Here's what to do..

Send an e-mail with the subject "Person of the Year!" to [email protected]. Just include who you want to nominate (nerdinside duh!).

Then vote in the poll so we can keep track of how we are doing. :)

I would like to nominate "NerdInside", affectionately known as "Nerdles", from FlashKit.com. His dedication as a linux user makes him a perfect choice for Person of the Year.

Thank you,
Clifton Griffin

I thonk I'll pass if it's all the same with you.

It's NPR, it has 3 listeners.

And if you some how manage to pull this off, you don't want to know what you will be nominated for.

3 listeners???

Aren't you exaggerating there? C'mon..you'll be rich and famous.

Swampy...be a stick in the mud. :)

It's NPR!!!! Need I say more? They have 3 listeners nation wide!

I just want countless promo mailings from some radio station that I have never heard of or listened to.

One of the hosts in a comedian from The Daily Show with John Stewart.

See?! It isn't that bad. Do it!

:rolleyes: They don't do promo mailing man. They're NPR. If they don't make money, the government picks up the tab.

It's NPR! You know what the PR stations for? Public Radio! Right?

*does a google search to see if they've identified a phobia associated with NPR*

NPR is left over from the 2nd World War II.

But they have new hosts now!

Woo Hoo! We have 2!

(I'm a poet and didn't know it)

Nope, just voice modification software (thank God for NASA) which lets them sound young.
