    My 5 Word Acceptance Speech



    The Webby Awards allow winners to give a 5 word speech.

    Only 5 words. Like some sort of geek haiku.

    It?s great because it forces people to be pretty darn creative.

    In 2000, I used my 5 words to play charades.

    This year I tried to so something along the same lines.

    My speech didn?t work well in text?But I?m really happy with how it felt.

    It was like a ?21 Hug Salute? to Grandpa.

    I felt authentic in that moment.

    I felt like I was sitting in the still truth that roots Hug Nation.

                                  actually they only had one, so we had to leave it on stage. MY trophy will be sent to me, they said. (It will go next to my Best personal Site from 2000)

                                                    Of course you could! Now use it in a 5-word sentence.. like "Antidisestablishmentanarianism sucks big donkey cocks", but with more substance.
                                                    Arguing whether the Democratic or Republican party is better is like debating which steaming pile of shit is slightly less stinky.
