That's It... The Gloves Are Off
I mentioned Milblogging.com a couple of weeks ago, where you can go and vote for your favorite Milblog. They're now hosting the 2005 Milbloggies.
"The Milbloggies are an annual award ceremony celebrating milblogging around the world. And of course, through the Milbloggies, you’ll be able to find some of the best milblogs on the internet."
The categories are broken down by service. Here are my personal recommendations. I challenge everyone out there to show some love and vote. And yes, I do bribe well. If my blog or AlliCadem's 'Whine With Cheese' blog wins the top Air Force site, I'm buying!
Air Force
'Dude, Where's The Beach?', 'Can I Have Some Whine With That Cheese?'
Army
'Blackfive', 'Ma Deuce Gunner', 'Mauser*Girl', and 'Desultory Butterfly'
Navy
'Doc In The Box', 'CDR Salamander', 'SMASH'
Marines
'Flight Pundit', 'One Marine's View'
Military Spouse
'Most Certainly Not', 'Air Force Family'
U.S. Civilian (Military Supporter)
'Toni's View' (Bear Creek Ledger)
Veteran
'Michael Yon'
Foreign Military
'Airstrip One'
Foreign Civilian
'Iraq the Model'
If I've forgotten anyone, throw a brick my way to remind me.

Thanks for endorsing my blog...does this mean I can count on Mr. T and Bill Murray's vote too??? How cool. :)

Mr. T always endorses good Jibba Jabba, so you've got his vote.
Melinda, can't thank you enough for stoping by now and then. It's nice to know you're just around the corner, literally. Oh, gotta tell you that we just bought a house. Moving off base for the first time, just down the road of course. Woo Hoo!

Congratulations on home ownership...that's so grown-up!!! :) I'm sure it will provide you with some additional stuff to blog about--neighbors, home repair, lawn work, and all that other fun stuff!!
Hope you & the family have an awesome Thanksgiving...what's up with this SNOW?????

Hey now... you can't vote for me, I'm not a member of MilBlogs. Not the joining type... :P

Melinda, thanks. Thankfully there are no new neighbors yet since no houses have been built in the area. I can always complain about the C-5s flying overhead.
Mauser Girl, I didn't nominate you. You're already in the running. I found your site.
Dave, you got a point. Give me a few minutes.

You bought a house! Congrats on completing one of the things "you want to do before you die"! Happy Thanksgiving!

Lindsay, thanks. Almost forgot that it was on my list. Ohio certainly isn't sunny CA, but it'll do for me and the family right now. Happy Thanksgiving.

Thank you for the plug! It seems to have done some good. :)
And congrats on buying a house - but NEVER mention it around my husband. It's still a very sore point with him that I didn't want to buy for an 18 month tour in New Jersey.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Don't forget SlagleRock's Slaughterhouse (http://combatarms.mu.nu/) for the Air Force! Always a great read!
