Kuntz is a never-was (three castles, eh?), and Rhea is a dumb-ass richie with no self-esteem who's decided to buy himself a convention. How is this significant? And I'm with Antonio, the winning entry is next to useless.metamorphosissigmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18163514061779555557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-15458535263360337942011-06-07T20:38:34.491-04:002011-06-07T20:38:34.491-04:00Kudos to Michael, and to the other four nominees f...Kudos to Michael, and to the other four nominees for also producing wonderful products, and to Rob Kuntz and Douglas Rhea for conceiving and executing this award.

The award itself is independent of its judges (and its judges are rotated), so whatever their feelings might or might not be, it's not reflective of what the award is about.James Maliszewskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00341941102398271464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7487871339000666216.post-91924740413510181952011-06-05T08:44:36.213-04:002011-06-05T08:44:36.213-04:00Frankly, all five of those products deserved it --...Frankly, all five of those products deserved it -- they are all "must-haves" as far as I'm concerned.
