I don't know how this happened........but, here's a massive hug and kiss to whomever nominated me!
Thank you!
Should I say that being nominated as a sexy blogger is just as good as winning in my book? Well, it is. All those nominated are fabulous and I feel honored to be amongst them.
There are a couple of glaring omissions, though.
Where's Angie? Tracy? Jenny? Sugarmama? Joni? Kari? Kate? Jodi? Rita? Marn?
There are many other women I'd nominate. In fact, every single site I read - the women are wonderful and appealing for a variety of reasons.
I think the different voices of the many blogs out there are what make the blogosphere such a powerful arena. Everyone has their own view of the world and their own way of describing it. Sexy isn't about one's body....it's about the attitude. It's about the mind and the heart and the freshness of spirit. Sexy transcends the physical.
Anyhow, I'm flattered to be up on the list of nominees and hope to find more of my friends up there as well because, ladies - you're all damn sexy to me!

Congrats on the nomination, but try to keep the acceptance speech short, will ya?
Paul
Posted by: LightandDark at August 15, 2003 12:40 AMPaul, I promise to be less verbose and a much better speller and grammarian than ????? is.
While some people think they know my story, they're so very wrong.
By the way, the IP was traced
Bad spelling, horrible punctuation and terrible grammar. Oh, and an idiot to boot.
Congrats on being nominated!
Posted by: bogie at August 15, 2003 02:41 AMWell,like my daddy allus said, you know how bees are....always flying over daisies only to land in a cow patty.
A little country humor to start your day.

Posted by: Kate at August 15, 2003 07:20 AMYou got my vote, hands down!
Posted by: inkgrrl at August 15, 2003 08:13 AMJoanie, the 12-year-old idiot with the atrocious grammar and horrid attitude is none other than my scheming daughter who has already received her tongue-lashing for sticking her (albeit loyal) nose in things that aren't her business.
I apologize.
She'll be sending you an apology later today, too. Right after she wakes up and finishes her essay on not reading other people's email and never trolling blogs again.
Posted by: Venomous Kate at August 15, 2003 08:24 AMAh...so THAT'S how it's all going to be explained.
Of course....there's the comment about reading other people's e-mail. Funny, that sounds almost like you would have been saying such things about me in e-mail but not publicly.
Whatever. As long as it doesn't happen on MY site - I don't care.
Posted by: Da Goddess at August 15, 2003 09:43 AMWell it seems the one thing gotten right in this scenario was the 12-year old mentality...sheesh.
Posted by: robyn at August 15, 2003 10:05 AMI have never heard of the person who made the sexy female bloggers list... I'm waiting to be nominated by Clinton. heheh

You got my vote, Sweetness.

Posted by: sillynun at August 15, 2003 11:48 AMA tongue-lashing and an essay?
Oh, THAT will teach a 12 year old a lesson.
I know I always learned MY lessons that way.
IF it was a 12 year old.
Either way, what is a 12 year old doing surfing the internet unmonitored?
Why the Hell is your email account available to anyone who steps up to the computer?
Is it saved by the email program (or by your browser if it's web mail)? Is it on a big yellow post-it note on the monitor?
Especially when you've got such nasty emails about Joanie (and who knows..probably anybody else who didn't agree with you) sitting there.
Way to teach your children, "It's okay to say anything you want about someone, even if it's not true...as long as they never find out"
Of course those values aren't as precious as the ones that show your child it's okay to use violence against Daddy.
Tounge lashing? That nasty-mouthed little guttersnipe would meet Mr. Belt in my house.
Posted by: Acidman at August 15, 2003 02:00 PMI'd think blaming one's child for things a parent did while in a drunken fit of rage would be something child protective services would like to know about, don't you?
Posted by: cleannose at August 15, 2003 03:08 PMI'd think blaming one's child for things a parent did while in a drunken fit of rage would be something child protective services would like to know about, don't you?
Posted by: cleannose at August 15, 2003 03:08 PMCongrats on the nomination. Wish I had done it first.
I was late getting to the comments and I am at a loss what to say about your heckler except agree with Acidman. Regardless of age.
Don't let it rain on your parade.
I wholeheartedly agree with Cleannose. A lame excuse. A sad attempt -- to do what? Well, if the goal is making a complete and utter ass of yourself, here here. Mission accomplished.
Blame your kid, blame the bottle, blame ME (I noticed the "Joni" spelling). It doesn't really matter.
That was a cheapshot. Either way. If it was your daughter, shame on you. If it was you. Well. All I know is what I read.
Posted by: Joni at August 15, 2003 06:33 PMAnton, I really don't want to believe it either. But you are wrong.
Hawaii is -10 GMT. California is -7GMT. Because Hawaii does not observe Daylight Savings Time.
So there went that theory, noble as it migh have been.

For those who don't make the connection, simply put: even a child could have composed that comment in 64 minutes. An hour makes all the difference in the world.
Posted by: Joni at August 15, 2003 08:14 PMThis is a hypothetical Joanie, check my math and if it doesn't add up, please delete this comment immediately.
All day long the timing was bothering me.
Let's look at this logically. Kate made her last post on August 14th at 9:17 PM Hawaii time. The nasty abusive comment was against this post was logged posted August 15th at 12:21 AM San Diego time. San Diego is three hours behind Hawaii. That means it was posted at 9:21 PM Hawaii time. Here's the screen shot. That's 4 minutes from the last post Kate made. There are 408 words in the comment per MS Words word count feature. A barely competent typist is capable of typing 50 words per minute. At that rate, it would take 8.16 minutes to type this comment. At 120 WPM, a reasonable but still not stellar rate,
the elapsed time would be 3.5 minutes. Is anybody following my math here? Is it feasible that Kate made her last post at 9:17 PM, slithered over to Joanie's to write this comment? Yes. Is it feasible
that a 12 year old girl waited for Kate to make her last post and go to bed, moved to Kate's computer, pried through Kate's private email and then made a value judgement against a total stranger to her with time left to type an abusive comment at the speed of a professional typist in
4 minutes?
I think the "White Trash" rests its case.
You folks make the call, I'm just doing the math. Kate is free to explain anywhere she wants.
Posted by: Anton at August 15, 2003 08:20 PMI wonder how Kate knew at 7 A.M. that her little daughter left the comment? There's a great mystery.
Posted by: cleannose at August 15, 2003 09:00 PMI wonder how Kate knew at 7 A.M. that her little daughter left the comment? There's a great mystery.
Posted by: cleannose at August 15, 2003 09:00 PMSomehow my two replies to Anton's "4 minute" theory appear BEFORE his post. Now I'm not clairvoyant. So there must be a comment/server issue here.
For the record, my clock here in Houston, Texas shows 11:12PM CDT. GMT -6:00.
Posted by: Joni at August 15, 2003 09:12 PMCome on people. Does this seem like something Kate would do? This is the woman who posted about a soldier I got to see buried, only because I asked her to. Stop being so damn cynical and accept the possibility that she is a fairly decent person who sometimes makes mistakes. For the record, I let my browser store info for me 'cause my memory sucks. Stop being assholes.
Posted by: Cassidy at August 15, 2003 09:31 PMGod, for once I agree with Acidman.
Hey, Cleannose, why don't you tell every person here the last time you were perfect. A quick update on kids, even as young as 2 and 3, if you turn you back, they will do everything you tell them not to.
I suppose if Joanie had been in the least bit interested in finding out the truth about the situation - rather than slinging mud - she would've taken me up on my (publicly made) offer to send her my phone number and pay for a collect call so she could hear my daughter's apology for her offensive and inappropriate behavior.
But it's so much more fun to twist things, isn't it?
Posted by: Venomous Kate at August 16, 2003 02:49 AMI don't think so, Joni.
Hawaii is -10 GMT. California is -7GMT. Because Hawaii does not observe Daylight Savings Time.
10-7=3
Try this page: http://www.timetemperature.com/tzus/time_zone.shtml which shows California and Hawaii time on the same page.
There's a 3 hour difference, we're at 4 minutes elapsed time.
Posted by: Anton at August 16, 2003 04:30 AMIt's 8:40 here, I just got back from complimenting Kate on her new site. Time stamp is 2:39 AM. That's 6 hours. When I hit post, this one should come up at like 5:42 AM. That's 3 hours behind me.
3 hours difference.
Posted by: Anton at August 16, 2003 05:44 AMThe last comment I made, I made right after I commented at Kate's site. It took me less than 2 minutes to get back and type and post that comment and I don't touch type fast at all. Elapsed time is 5 minutes. We're dealing with single digit minutes, not over an hour.
If Kate did write that comment, and the more I look at it, the more convinced I become, it would be unwise for Joanie to accept the offer of a collect call from Kate. It would mean handing an abuser who is harassing Joanie with a telephone number. The call itself would be meaningless. It would not be the first time a child lied to protect an alcholic parent from the consequences of committing an irrational act. Also, there is a remote possibility that the child did write the post in order to please her mother. I say remote because if you read the comment, there are value judgements being made that I don't believe came out of the head of a 12 year old. If it did, there is still a pile of anger pent up in that child that needs addressing. She is obviously acting out.
In any case, there is something seriously wrong here and if Kate cares about her family, she should be seeking professional help.
I'm sure I'm going to get totally blasted somewhere for writing this. I would ask the folks, like Cassidy, who really care about Kate to consider the fact that they may be hurting Kate by acting as enablers and reinforcing the dellusion that everything is alright in Hawaii.
It's not. Kate, find someone to help you before its too late.
Posted by: Anton Shrek at August 16, 2003 07:09 AMA 12-year old can't spell "her"? A 12-year old has that much hatred in her that she flings about words like "white trash," "dirty slut" and "dirty rotten filthy bitch"? Just want kind of children is this Venomous Kate person raising? And how is it that this "12-year-old" can't spell "blog" but can spell "venomous"? Blog is a phonetic word. She would've spelled it right on a guess.
There is much to fear here, folks. This Venomous Kate character is a fucking psycho nutbag. Trust me on this. There is major borderline personality disorder playing out here. Add alcohol. I fear for this woman's children. Fucking crazy ass bitch.
Posted by: Tracy at August 16, 2003 08:03 AMCall me crazy, but I think that if Kate was going to climb up your ass with a blow-torch, Joanie, she would at least spell-check it, drunk or not.

Posted by: David Strain at August 16, 2003 09:14 AMThe question here that no one seems to have asked is that assuming Kate's daughter did write all of these things, where, how, why, what and when did she gather all of these facts and then assemble them into such a value judgment about Joanie.
Did her daughter come up with this on her own? Or does her mother drink like a fish and swear like a sailor about Joanie on a constant basis, or is it that she is writing horrible and slanderous things about Joanie to others?
Anyway you look at it, this woman has some issues - deep and abiding. And man do they need some attention by a professional.
Posted by: Clean Nose 2 at August 16, 2003 09:38 AMDavid-
Go to Kate's site, post a comment and write down the time stamp Kate's server posts.
Come back here and type 408 words. Post and write down the time stamp.
Go to http://www.timetemperature.com/tzus/time_zone.shtml and verify that there is a 3 hour time difference between HST and PDT
Check the time stamp on Kate's last post on the 14th. Check the time stamp on the abusive comment.
Do the math. Kate wrote the comment.
Posted by: Anton at August 16, 2003 09:47 AMKate, had you been the least bit interested in offering a true apology, you'd have used your considerable research skills and found my phone number...as you have been easily able to do in the past...and called me yourself. You offered the collect call only because you knew I wouldn't waste my time.
12yr old daughter writing that comment? Not bloody likely. If she really had, why wait until she's finished her beauty sleep to deal with the situation? Wake that child up and make her face the music.
The truth is, only you have an axe to grind with me. Your daughter has no reason to leave me a comment like that - or for any other reason. Wonder why she didn't leave comments elsewhere.....
Also, who publishes their child's transgressions like that? Who humiliates their child online for the world to see? And, who........WHO asks for parenting advice, to punish a child, from outsiders? It's one thing to write an amusing anecdote about a child...it's another thing to attribute poor personal conduct on one.
Again, if you truly wanted to apologize I know you'd have run a WHOIS and found my number yourself. You have the technology. You've done it before. If you know what needs to be done, you do it. Simple. Easy. You don't make the victim jump through hoops to get what he or she deserves.
Please call off the flying monkeys. Remove all links - current and/or archived - to my site, if you would. I prefer to have my visitors here because they want to be here....not because they've been sent to defend you.
For anyone who continues to post in Kate's defense, you're misguided...or rather, misled. There are better ways to use your time. Why not volunteer at a soup kitchen? Why not read to the blind? How about going out and adopting a grandparent? See? Lots of choices. Yours to make. In the meantime, please refrain from wasting my bandwidth and storage space to prove what a good little sheep you are.
Posted by: Da Goddess at August 16, 2003 03:36 PMWell, I think Joanie said it all, and the only thing left is a real apology.
*drums fingers patiently for all eternity*
Posted by: Clean Nose 2 at August 16, 2003 04:21 PMNice work Goddess, you seem to have elevated PETTY to a high art form.
In the past I have visited your site and Kate's site rather infrequently and was unaware that you two had a "thing" going, so I can't really describe myself as ardent follower of either of you. But you don't have to be a "sheep" to notice that someone who sends child protective services to somebody's home as a form of harassment is well beneath contempt. The true mindless followers would be those that support you and what you TRIED to do.
If that person was you (that called CPS), you have committed a crime. If that person was not you, then you have used your little piece of the web to incite this.
Either way your ISP and/or hosting company is being contacted by myself, and likely others as well, because I am quite positive that you have violated MANY terms of your service agreement as well as their usage policies.

Posted by: Jim at August 17, 2003 03:39 AMJim, you couldn't be more wrong. Whatever Kate's problems are...on or offline....I keep ALL my online problems ONLINE. I don't believe any of this warrants offline action. Ever. And, I don't meddle in family affairs.
Posted by: Da Goddess at August 17, 2003 03:46 AMJim, you might want to look at your terms of service for your ISP -- for example most ISP's have an anti harrassment clause, to "stalk" or otherwise harass another is prohibited.
Likewise, most ISPs have a clause about posting anything that invades the privacy of another. Minors in particular.
Goddess, you have a minor at home, correct?
Posted by: Terms of Service at August 17, 2003 05:06 AMDear Mr./Mrs. terms of service:
The information posted was a Who-Is-Lookup that is available to ANYBODY that has enough brain cells to make it to Network Solutions.
http://www.networksolutions.com/en_US/whois/index.jhtml
Have fun attempting to make an issue of that one! :)
Posted by: Jim at August 17, 2003 05:18 AMJim, I thought you were a pretty smart fella until you posted Joan's contact information. Just because it is available elsewhere to those sufficiently motivated to LOOK IT UP does not excuse the fact that you really were out of line posting it here. (And why didn't you post your own right along with it? Or were you afraid of what might show up at YOUR door?)
What were you attempting to prove with that post? What were you suggesting that readers[1] of this thread do with that information? Remember, we are talking about a bunch of nitwitted moon bats who have far too much time on their hands already. They'll read that information and go off on yet another tangent. Thanks to you.
None of this shit is going to stop until everyone stops fanning the flames.
[1] I'm not implying ALL Joan's (or Kate's) readers are nitwitted moonbats; only the one(s) responsible for the latest shenanigans. I'm sure they know who they are. I really don't want to know.
Posted by: Joni at August 17, 2003 12:46 PMAnton should be a detective.
