All Hail Fluffy!

Yes, it's that time again! On this month's ballot, a rarely-seen
award: the Richard M. Nixon "Pathological Liar", and up for it are
many old favourites and some new ones: Ed "Edmo Wollk00k" Wollmann,
Richard the St00pid, Dickie "FreeSpeechStore" Scoville, Ray "Kazoo"
Karczewski, BowTie, sPammy Russell, Will "Duck" Dockery, Daryl "Going
to dog you all, I am"/<crickets chirping> Hunt, Ernie "you're all
crazy farrel or his willnots" Primeau the snake-oil baldness-cure
salesman of alt.baldspot, and, surprise of surprises, the Big 8
Management Board. Up for other awards are: Dustin "I outer filthed
Rhonda because she had my emails and she was going to out me, I KNOW
it!" Cook, several of the aforementioned k00ks, William "wcb"/the
anti-SPOG Barwell, Jamie Baillie the spamming anti-spammer, Alan
Jones the f'loon (from AMM-J), George Maloney the net.KKKop of
rec.arts.marching.drumcorps, Wabbit (aka the possibly-ersatz Woger
Wiseman (from Reston, VA, this guy), the legendarily-lame wannabe
troll of RRAP and alt.flame), Duane "I can tell forgers and froggers
apart from the real thing, just by reading headers" Arnold, J. Taylor
& Don Findlay (of the "Expanding Earth" school of thought ("Plate
tectonics? Piffle!)), Tim "I SUED SPAMHAUS AND WON!...What do you
mean, I have to track them down and bring them into the proper
jurisdiction myself to collect? Doesn't America rule the world?"
Bolen, Dean Roger "If you can understand me, get yourself psychiatric
help"/"teslacoils" Ray, bob&carole (the anti-pedo), Double-A, Ken
"Kenny Kakes" Pangborn, Rob "Mop Jockey" Wolfe, Donald "I don't have
to prove there's no god! Those theists and their claim that there
'might' be a deity -- feh!" Alford, and, from alt.baldspot again,
Marcus Cox and Russ H, who don't care about the awards, but just want
to use AUK to harass Ernie Primeau (Uh, no?), and have a good time
getting each other off (verbally).
