"You like me, you really like me..."
- Sally Field, 1985 Oscar Acceptance Speech
This site was recently named funniest legal blog, even though, as the gracious contest host noted, this isn't really a "blog" or limited to law (I will be posting something on that issue shortly).
Not surprisingly, there was some controversy about this site's success in the poll.
The question now is, what prize I should select, and to whom I should send it?
I figure it's best to let the readers decide. The prize is to be selected from a store called "The Billable Hour" (watches excluded). My thinking is that we should buy the "Slam a Gavel"1 and mail it to Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg or Clarence Thomas, the Judge who jailed Paris Hilton or Judge Roy Pearson, a degenerate Washington DC jurist who recently lost a suit against his dry cleaner seeking $54 million in damages for lost pants.
I am not married to the concept of gifting the prize to a judge, but I can't think of any other type of person to send this sort of material. If you have any other suggestions regarding who ought to receive it, or what the gift card should say, please send them to me or offer a comment here. I'll decide by the weekend. Thanks.

1 Look closely at the words on the gavel set. You'll understand why it's the best of the prizes.
