Last week, Army Of Awesome People was nominated for three awards, the Versatile Blogger Award, The Very Inspiring Blogger Award and The One Lovely Blog Award. Thank you to readers Jim Chapman , Prarie Godmother and List of X. However, these unfortunately aren’t our first awards. Below are five other awards we wish we hadn’t won:
There it was, caught in the clutches of the dreaded Pirate Long Mustache, The Zank. It had zigged. It had zagged. It had even zugged. But, when The Zank went for a zeg that’s when Long Mustache kicked out his peg leg from behind the rum keg. “Bam. That’s that. You’re mine now Zank,” Long … Continue reading
Is it just me, or is everyone else constantly being swarmed by bugs? For my regular readers, this isn’t really a new topic. It seems that every time I try to enjoy the outdoors, I get sucker-punched by a bunch of gnats that have come together in the form of a giant boxing glove. You … Continue reading
Is it just me or does it seem like while a majority of the Sesame Street characters are employed by Sesame Street Inc., Bert actually lives there on the set.

Apart from the natural disappointment I felt, having had … Continue reading
If I only invent one invention in my life time, let us hope that it is a machine that produces inventions. You just push a button, followed by a lever pull, which I am sure must produce some sort of ‘booping’ and ‘beeping’ sounds and then “blato!”, you have yourself a brand new invention. This new … Continue reading
I think it is completely unfair when someone gets mad at a computer and then takes it out on the monitor. A monitor, as we all know, is just a patsy. It is manipulated by the computer like a puppet and we just sit back and laugh. “Oh just look at how funny it is … Continue reading
