As “The Fly” rests comfortably by hearth’s edge, I gather my campaign team ’round the trash burning in my 55 gallon drum smoking homegrown tabackky out of  a corncob pipe and ponder the 2012 iBC Tabbed Blogger Election.

What has become crystal clear to us is that there is now a clear front runner.  I am not ceding my candidacy, but, as I said in regard to a different topic last evening: “the writing is on the wall”.

My vote is still undecided, but only because my choice was coming down to either this candidate or one other that I greatly respect.  This (former) person genuinely works his ass off and absolutely deserves what awaits him.

Fuck, he was my first follower on Twitter and was the first to really tell me that they appreciated the experiences I was sharing on here.  I tell you what dude, I really appreciated that.  It feels good to put some passion into something and have someone provide constructive feedback.

If shit were ever to go down, for real, I want to be on whatever side he is on.

In the likely event that he is elected, I have no doubt that he will be a great addition to the iBC team.

Now, should there be more than one available tab, as I said, I am not ceding my candidacy.  What I can say for certain is that I have treated the opportunity to write here with the respect and dignity that it rightfully deserves.  I’m a nobody; therefore I have approached my blog with the primary intention of gaining the respect of my readers.  If you have followed me, you know what you are going to get: frank and  honest commentary (with good grammar) regarding my experiences in and around the stock market and a touch of some good music.

Lastly, if any staff writers have read my work and would like to (either publicly or privately) offer their backing, having earned your respect, I would be much obliged.

You may enjoy what I write.  If not, well…until “The Fly” instructs me to leave the premises, you can go fuck yourself.

My best to you all.
