To whom should I address the announcement of recognition for henceforth receiving the coveted, HOPKINS FLEMPKINS Salute to Excellence Because You Deserve It, award? Perhaps I should contact Elanore Mantooth directly? In any case, we are happily trembling in our Hanes Her Way brand feminine undergarments as we slowly announce that the city of PHX H2O Co. has been awarded third annual first place prize in the diversionary finals for the Southwest bracket of Dionne Warwick's department of aquatic management and filtration advisory board leadership conference. You'll be happy to hear you beat out other such contenders as,
-Chubby Badger Frozen Dinner Corp.
-Schitwiff Brand Biscuit conglomerate
That's enough to sneeze at!

Okra Winfrey
Ted's Rib Tickling Barn Wear
Edward G. Hamburger
Harriet Tubman

As per typical congratulatory recognizership regulates, a well groomed spokesperson of your choosing shall be required to accept the aforementioned award amongst a roaring crowd of 4000 other nominees. Your spokesperson (we suggest a man) will of course know ahead of time that they've won the BLOGSKINS FORESKINS AWARD but should be instructed to act surprised and alarmed. We suggest practicing awe and excitement in a full body length mirror several hundred times before the actual engagement. Did we mention that its also going to be a gala honoring the majestic chinstrap penguin? We might serve cheese. In fact bacon has oft been discussed. Please inform your spokesperson (a woman is fine too...sort of) that the trophy we will be handing them alongside the splinter encrusted acceptance podium is purely symbolic and so clearly, they shan't be taking it home with them. (It's a quick pose for a photo and that's it). (Corporate policy).
JUST IMAGINE...
