Dear Andyco Employee,
It has been brought to my attention that
our IT staff is moping around because they were recently overlooked
by the Webby Awards nominating committee. Evidently, they assumed
they were a shoe-in for the annual award, especially after having
paid $270 in entry fees -- money that was taken out of there
online porn and party mix budget. Word has it that they were
edged out by other sites due to Andyco.com's lack of the "F" word
-- evidently a prerequisite for being considered humorous or "edgy".
Personally, I don't quite see what the big
deal is. I'm sure it was and honest oversight, and that the $270
was mistakenly used to fund the Webby judges' crank habit. And
besides, the only celebrity the Webbys seem to be able to scare
up is Sam Donaldson -- who by the way looks terrible in one of
those see-through evening gowns.
Of course, the difference between our brooding
IT professionals and a successful corporate leader such as myself
is that I always see the cup as half full, not half empty. So
I decided to take matters into my own hands and start my own
website award show -- The Beasley Award.
The Beasley Award -- named after my part-time
COO and full-time long-haired Persian Mrs. Beasley -- has been
created to honor those sites which exemplify excellence in web
design, content, or whatever. Judged by Mrs. Beasley herself,
we believe that the Beasley Awards will soon be the premiere
award on the Internet that's judged by a cat.
If you, or anyone you know are interested
in entering the 2002 Beasley, please be sure to visit our Official
Beasley Awards entry page. There they'll find all the information
you need about nominations for the newest great honor on the
web today.
