The Golden Rose

The Golden Rose
I award this rose to those folks who paid attention to the smaller details and took the time to make their sites the best they could be by proper usage of the English language, as well as the Hyper Text Markup Language. I found their sites to be interesting and well done and believed that they should be recognized for the extra effort which they put into making it an enjoyable experience for me and any others who have the good fortune to come across their pages in this world. This award may not be applied for and is one of the few that is truly awarded, not given only as a link to promote my own site, so please do not share the graphic, link the graphic to me or otherwise spoil the intent of the award. I created the graphic by altering one I obtained at Windy's. It is my hope that others will see this page and know how deeply I was moved by the site, go to the site and realize the importance of taking the time to use such tools as a spellchecker or dictionary. Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But, I thought enough of these sites to place a link here. Thank you, recipients, very much for sharing and for the obvious effort which you put into making this world a better place. I do appreciate it.

With the highest regard,

Poetic Excellence Award
I was more than a little delighted to receive this award for poetic excellence from Ring Mistress Stormy of the Poetic Visions & Inspirations Web Ring. She is a very talented poet, and has done a mighty fine job on her web site, the Winds of Change. Because this award comes from such a wonderful woman and talented human being, it means more to me than words could ever say. Her Web Ring is strictly poetry and has many talented poets on the ring. I am a proud member and my poetry page entitled "The Lakefront Without You, My Love" is the site where the links to that Ring can be found. If you go to her site, be warned that you may be there for some time and may not leave without feeling deep emotion. She's very good.

The Black Hole
As it shocked me, it may be quite a shock to you to find out that I have won an award. I am proud of the Black Hole Award, which I received for my poetry page entitled Don't Say 'Take Me To Your Leader'. There are some awesome sites to peruse in this ring. It is all about UFOs and paranormal activities and is truly fascinating. I would like to thank the good people who awarded this to me. I believe you will know who you are, even though I am not always certain of who I am.
