Okay…since he’s not going to do it for himself, I’ma take matters into my own hands here. Many of you know Sir Paul of Fizzy Pop, and some of you might know that Paul is getting TROUNCED in the Weblog Awards poll going on here. Modest gent that he is, he has decided that he will not campaign on his own behalf, but you know what? Those of us who admire his ability and wit and charm and frequent payoffs must rally together to make sure that this bundle of pop energy does NOT finish last! “Spartans never retreat! Spartans never surrender! Go spread the word.” (Actually, I am a Spartan. School mascot and all…)

In attempting to figure out just what prompts this modesty, I think I may have spotted the issue. It appears that Mr Fizz has been letting himself go a bit, if Google Images is to be believed…

No matter that he’s a bit older than he lets on, and that he’s sporting a ‘do more appropriate for a grandmother…it’s still El Fizzerino, and we should support him, as he would do for us. (I know it’s overkill now, but I just can’t help myself. The portrait inspires me!)
