Award!
Fred & Jeri of The Fred Thompson Show have honored IMAO with the “FRED IS AMUSED” Award.
A couple years back, Frank wrote:
Fred Thompson has such self-control that he has only laughed once during the entire five year history of IMAO… and it was probably at something Harvey wrote.
Apparently sometime since then, someone (probably Frank) got another laugh out of Fred – thus this award.
FINE PRINT:
To join the exclusive club of blogs who honor IMAO and have your award featured on our sidebar with a link to your blog, make up a fancy award image honoring IMAO, blog about it, and drop a link in the comments.
Keep it PG-13, and if it doesn’t suck too terribly bad, your award will be duly noted in a post (Current estimated wait time – 2 Award posts), and placed in the sidebar with a link to your site.
As added incentive for people to honor IMAO with worthless, made-up awards, those who do so may proudly display this worthless, made-up Participant Ribbon:
If you don’t have a blog, then send your image to harvolson-at-gmail.com and include a link to one of your favorite IMAO posts.
For the Photoshop-impaired, here’s a guide to making mediocre fake pictures with Microsoft Paint
Or try the free lolbuilder from I Can Has Cheezburger.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Maximum sidebar image width is 190 pixels. Please make sure text is at least barely legible at that size.
Now get honoring!

It’s your brain, Senator Thompson, particularly your philosophical, legislative and legal brain that we love so much here….
Wait a minute.
and your approach…
and style…
and personality…
and wisdom…
and politics…
and Leadership.
This is truly and honor of honors, Frank, Harvey, Basil, spacemonkey, et al. Congratulations!

WOW!! You amused the FRED!! I bow to your omnipitance.
May 6th, 2009 at 5:16 pm
Way to go, Frank!
So The FRED will let you live? He won’t throw you into the sun before he destroys it?
May 6th, 2009 at 5:21 pm
Awsome Award! So that’s why they had someone covering their show today, just to give IMAO and award.
May 6th, 2009 at 5:24 pm
Now THAT’S Awesome!
Wow, I thought it was cool when he was just giggling on-air at one of your posts. This is like THE Big Time!
Oh yeah, TheFred &/or The Missus definitely lurks here.
May 6th, 2009 at 5:28 pm
Hmmm, on 2nd thought, I smell an inside ‘shop job. I noticed that Fred didn’t put the IMAO Participant Ribbon on his site.
(Still a cool award though)
May 6th, 2009 at 6:04 pm
That is super sweet. To know that the next POTUS, with Sarah Palin as the VPOTUS, reads and enjoys one of my very same daily reads just tickles me in a Chris Matthews, leg-tingling way.
May 6th, 2009 at 6:49 pm
I guess that’s the end of this feature. Once Fred gives you an award, all others are superfluous.
May 6th, 2009 at 6:59 pm
I don’t know if this is real or not, but to have my crappy award attempt on the same sidebar with a Fred! award is pretty damn good enough for me.
May 6th, 2009 at 8:00 pm
I was gonna make an award, but the effort just seems pointless now that you have the best of the best awards. Meh. I will continue to now be Ann Onymous.
May 6th, 2009 at 8:11 pm
Cool! It also pushed Olbermann further down the page.
May 6th, 2009 at 9:15 pm
make a hippie wet his pants……just say Fred Thompson name to him……it works everytime.
May 6th, 2009 at 9:37 pm
Heck. Yes.
Teh Fred!
May 6th, 2009 at 10:35 pm
The scariest words you’ll ever hear come right before the fatal clobberin’: Fred is not amused. This is like totally the opposite since you get to roll the dice at least one more time. Congrats all of ya.
May 6th, 2009 at 10:46 pm
Whoa. Way 2 go IMAO. I’m with AlanABQ; it’s humbling to be on the same sidebar with the man who should be in the White House … and someday will be?
May 6th, 2009 at 11:19 pm
ALL HAIL THE FRED!!! LONG LIVE THE FRED!!!
May 7th, 2009 at 12:04 am
If Fred likes IMAO so much why aren’t we on his blog role and why isn’t his ribbon displayed in the center of his site?
May 7th, 2009 at 12:15 am
I’m with you AlanBBQ…having my crappy award just near Fred’s is pretty awesome!
May 7th, 2009 at 1:00 am
I’m a little bitter… You get a cool award from Fred. I gave the maximum donation less than a week before he quit his campaign and all I got was a lousy form thank you letter. No class that Fred Thompson.
May 7th, 2009 at 8:39 am
Woot, dude!
May 7th, 2009 at 9:14 am
Fred Thompson can be amused without laughing. When Fred Thompson laughs, the five nearest cities are electrically overloaded for three days.
May 7th, 2009 at 9:47 am
Wow, the Fred. Nice addition to the Chuck and Sarah and Jesus and I guess the Pat. Still waiting for Miss Prejean and Bo.
May 7th, 2009 at 12:17 pm
I knew if we all worked together we could make Fred chuckle again.
May 7th, 2009 at 12:57 pm
Yes, but Twittering is still gay.
May 7th, 2009 at 1:05 pm
I’m wondering when Crowder and Zo are going to submit their IMAO Awards. Especially after all the traffic you send their way. Someone tell Crowder and Zo to get on that ASAP.
May 8th, 2009 at 10:43 am
Kind of scary. I immediately started chuckling at all the posts, to align myself with The Fred. Failure to do so would have triggered a fearful reprisal.
You know, if you guys ever DO nuke the moon, I bet Fred might even nod once, slowly.
