Quite a compliment July 14, 2008

Today, I left a few comments to a blog post on Alisyn Camerota’s (“Fox and Friends,” Fox News Channel) Greenroom blog. Audra Floyd, Alisyn’s summer intern, posted while Alisyn is on vacation. In one comment, I referred to my Saturday post on the passing of Tony Snow and Bobby Murcer:
[R]egarding Tony Snow, I was saddened when I heard he had passed away on Saturday. I posted about him – as well as Bobby Murcer, who died of brain cancer on the same day – on my blog. Click on my name to go there or click on the link below to see my post:
One of the regular commenters at the Greenroom blog was a man named Brad. He left quite a compliment for me:
Mike C-
Awesome blog, it should be nominated for a Webby Award, just like this one
I heard about Bobby M[u]rcer from a sports channel I was watching the other day. He was a legend in the NY Yankee organization. It’s really sad and tragic. God bless him and his family.
In the three months that this blog has existed (three months ago tomorrow), I never thought I would even be considered for a Webby Award. I’m just a humble blogger. It’s an honor just to be told The Mike Chimeri Blog should be nominated. I thanked Brad in the comments to Audra’s post, but I’ll repeat the thanks here. Thank you very much, Brad.
7/15, 2:30 PM UPDATE: I originally had video of two commercials Audra appeared in for motorcycle dealerships in Arkansas and Oklahoma. But after a comment in today’s Greenroom blog post where I linked to this post was removed, I feel that, as I had feared last night, I overstepped my bounds. So, I have removed the videos. I am very sorry I gave Audra too much exposure. I wish her the best in her future endeavors and wish Alisyn the best as she returns to “Fox and Friends Weekend.”
7/15, 4:40 PM UPDATE: I have decided to give up commenting at any Fox News blog. I’m better off focusing my energy on other things. I’m repeating myself, but I am very sorry for being a bother in any of the comment threads I’ve been a bother in.
Now, let’s get back to talking about jazz or any venues I’m going to.
7/18, 10:50 AM UPDATE: Today was Audra’s last day as an intern. Again, best of luck to her.
7/18, 3:40 PM UPDATE: Oh, what the heck? I’ll put them back. If I get any complaints, I’ll take them down again. Here’s the ad for Sunrise Honda in Searcy, Arkansas:
And the ad for Shawnee Honda in Shawnee, Oklahoma:
Let me know what you think.
7/25 UPDATE: On Tuesday, I had added video of Audra last Friday morning as she helped Steve Doocy with the weather, or the Foxcast. I made the clip in RedLasso, which I had just joined the day before. Unfortunately, access to the site has been suspended, likely forever as I don’t see that company ever reaching agreements with networks. So, I have removed my clip.
7/26 UPDATE: I published my recording of the above to YouTube. This is the first video I’ve ever uploaded there.
3/10/10 UPDATE: I’ve deleted the video from my YouTube account. Sorry.
Hey Mike-
Thanks for posting my comment on your blog. It really means a lot to me. I appreciate all of your effort you put into this wonderful blog. Take care and God Bless.
And I don’t think Audra will mind you mentioning her name. Just be sure to give her credit for her computer skills.
