I’ve been Awarded the Thoughtful Blogger!

Those of us who love and respect Nita over at A Wide Angle View of India will be deeply alarmed this morning to hear she recently suffered an entirely uncharacteristic lapse in sanity during which she presented me with the Thoughtful Blogger Award! Her words on the matter will gravely concern her many friends:

Paul has an excellent blog where he discusses in an analytical and intelligent manner issues close to his heart. He is also involved in the blogging world ( I don’t know anyone this involved) and is a very very thoughtful blogger. That is why I am awarding him the Thoughtful Blogger Award….

If you are unfamiliar with Nita and her work at A Wide Angle View of India, there is no better introduction than the one found here (I know because I wrote it myself). If you have not yet had the pleasure of reading her blog, you should most certainly grant yourself that pleasure.

Now, it is my reprehensible policy to enthusiastically accept any award given me regardless of whether the person granting the award is suffering from a momentary lapse of sanity. I am not above taking advantage of my friend’s lapses in sanity. Indeed, I am especially honored to receive this Award from Nita because of the high esteem I have for her. So, it is a pleasure to accept the Thoughtful Blogger Award. Thank you, Nita!
