Pin The Icon On Vilmar?

As you may have noticed, yesterday I applied icons to the authors of our posts. Naturally, I got first dibs on BUGS. Nyaaahhhh, what’s up doc? I thought long and hard and decided on TAZ for Vilmar. I thought it kinda fit the good ol’ boy, bless his little heart. When I informed him of the choice I sensed a little embaressment on his part. I inqured as to whether he liked it or not. He kinda hemmed and hawed a little bit and in a shy voice told me that he was worried that people might get the wrong impression of our Benevolent Dictator and would think that he was a raving lunatic. “Ce n’est pas possible!!!”, I shouted .... to which Vilmar whacked me on the head for speaking French, the most hated language in the BMEWS War Room. After which El Supremo sank into an introspective, gloomy mood.

I wandered off to the dungeons and tortured a few captured Al Qaeda operatives, hoping their screams would cheer Vilmar up. No go. Still gloom.

So I decided to leave it up to our loyal readers. I have chosen ten fine examples of iconic art and have placed them before you to decide here. Help me pick an icon that truly represents our Benevolent Dictator. Cast your vote today (the poll ends tonight at midnight). Help us choose an icon that represents Vilmar’s “kinder, gentler side” and portrays him as a “compassionate conservative” .... or pick one that really represents El Supremo.

I leave it in your hands, gentle readers. May God have mercy on all of us ....

Important Message: Since this poll is being run by the Democratic National Committee, you may vote as many times as you wish, in as many states as you wish and encourage your dead relatives to vote. I’m John Kerry and I approve this message.

Update: Who the f**k let John Kerry in here?

Update II: Vilmar is off behind enema lines, taunting the Democraps. They’re having a screening of “Fahrenheit 9/11” (and a circle-jerk afterward). Vilmar and the gang are staking out the Democrap’s building with signs and video recorders. In other words, our Benevolent Dictator is UNAWARE OF THIS POLL, so cast your vote now before he gets back (around 5:00pm EDT) or else we’re all dead-meat. Maybe, he’ll be in a good mood after standing in front of DemHQ yelling “BRING OUT YER DEAD!” .. or if he’s really in a Pythonesque mood just staring at the Democraps as they walk by and snarling “NI .. NI .. NI .. NI .. NI .. BRING ME A SHRUBBERY!”

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
