For the Love of Torah, by Yitzhak Eyezik

Here’s a post of mine which, although not neccessarily intellectually deep or profound, certainly had a real-world effect beyond what might reasonably have been expected.
It played a not insignificant role in having the “artwork” removed.

Please choose one of these posts only. Otherwise, I will choose one myself.
Jerusalem revealed: Random Acts of Niceness
My Cousin Jonathan Blog: The Mikveh Story
Since I’m Jewish and I’m rather proud of this post – and the work that went into it – I’m going to nominate it. The topic itself is not Jewish, but I would submit that the analysis very much is. (Plus, it received considerable attention in the blogosphere, demonstrating the value of interfaith bloganalysis.)
“From the prophetic to the prosaic: revising the NAE Civic Engagement platform”

For best post I nominate Rishon-rishon for The Valley of Sex
http://www.rishon-rishon.com/archives/2004_09.php#046929
I like this one:
http://josh.blogs.com/israel/2004/07/we_fear_the_unk.html
annabel lee’s Avinu Malkenu
Jack’s Shack The Tears that Do Not fall
I want to nominate Spiritual Imprinting by Rishon Rishon but The Valley of Sex is great too, and I don’t want to split the vote.
Anon, how about be redact our entries and make Spiritual Imprinting and The Valley of Sex into a series?
Then I could nominate Maladapted to Our Habitat for best individual post?
http://www.rishon-rishon.com/archives/2004_12.php#058393
Could we do that, Israellycool?
I rarely see things as funny (and as true) as The Story of Hanukkah Revisited from FOM
Shuldn’t be a problem, but the anonymous commenter who nominated the other posts would need to agree to this
Thanx– ok, anon? are you out there? OK with you?
Israellycooldave, what if s/he doesn’t check back?
Another shameless self-nomination:
Tough to pick one, but I’ll go with this somewhat sappy post:
Burnt Offerings
Dave, I’m right with you, bro. Here’s a shameless self-nomination from me about a post that I authored and published on my site, Smooth Stone, entitled
“To Hell with Arab Hatred”, which went around the world via emails and forum boards back in May and June 2004.
OY VEY. I meant to say, Solomon. Please forgive me, it’s been a long day. :/
Here is the link for that post
http://wwwjackbenimble.blogspot.com/2004/12/tears-that-do-not-fall.html
Egad. I yucked it up again. The post is called To hell with Arab outrage.
Ok. Lesson learned. No more self-promotion.

Due to a technical limitation with the polling system, the URL of this post (http://religion-society.blogspot.com/2004/11/from-prophetic-to-prosaic-revising-nae.html) has to be shortened significantly, or otherwise this nomination cannot be included in the voting.
If the blogger in question can republish this post, but give it a much shorter title, then this problem may be overcome.

Tired of obtaining low amounts of useless visitors for your site? Well i want to inform you of a new underground tactic that makes myself $900 daily on 100% AUTOPILOT. I could truthfully be here all day and going into detail but why dont you merely check their site out? There is a excellent video that explains everything. So if your serious about making quick hard cash this is the website for you. Auto Traffic Avalanche
