Long Due Liebster Thanks and More Thanks!


During the month of April four wonderful bloggers honored me with the Liebster Award. I don't have to tell you April was total madness and I couldn't acknowledge them as I should for their kindness.

Since I've been awarded with the Liebster already, I know I would send you all to catatonic state if I would put here 44 questions and their answers and 44 weird facts of me and my dwarves. Mostly now that there are 600 dwarves currently crowding my cave. Now there are four Pancholines wanting to polish everything and anything they find at hand. My horns are growing thin already. (By the way, if you're interested in a Cave garage sale, I'm offering four dwarves in exchange of a good joke.)

Anyway, I just want to thank these kind dragon friends and ask you, if you're around the area, to pay a visit to their blogs and say hi in my name.

The Wicked Writer
Tony LaPlume at Scouring Monk
Franny Stevenson at Dr. Franny and Mrs. Myself

I also take this chance to thank Brandon Ax for the cool artwork he sent me. (Also long due thanks, but better late than never, right Brandon?)


Thank you (ALL of you), for reading, for being here and for giving life to the Dragon Cave. Now I go to put some order because some of these dwarves behave like gremlins. (Hey! I already told you he's not a maracca!)

  4. I'm officially a label somewhere. That's pretty awesome. You deserve the award, and I'm glad I wasn't the only one to give it to you.

  5. A visitor to a certain college paused to admire the new Hemingway Hall that had been built on campus.
    "It's a pleasure to see a building named for Ernest Hemingway," he said.
    "Actually," said his guide, "it's named for Joshua Hemingway. No relation."
    The visitor was astonished. "Was Joshua Hemingway a writer, also?"
    "Yes, indeed," said his guide. "He wrote a check."

    I cut and pasted that from the internet, so I get zero for originality...but I still want my dwarf! (send one who cleans, please)

  6. Damn, I can't think of a single joke right now. I could use a few dwarves too.

    Congratulations on the awards Al, you deserve them.

  10. Wow, so nice to get all that award love!
    I wish I had a joke because I could really use four dwarves; no one's polishing the silver and the garden is getting overgrown with weeds...

  11. Congrats on your well deserved awards!!! I don't have any good jokes - but I could sure use four dwarves . . .

    @Suzanne: Deal! I'll send them immediately.
    @Yvonne: Thanks!
    @Tony: Yes, actually you'll be perma-link on my award section. Thanks. :)

    @Medeia: Thanks!
    @Yolanda: I was supposed to take a break, but I guess that comes with the weekend. :)
    @Melissa: Thank you. The artwork is not mine. Brandon's gift for me. :)
    @Lexa: I'll send you another four all the way to Egypt. You can pay me with a joke later. :D
    @Tyrean: Thank you. Cheering up is my specialty, hahaha. I'll send you some dwarves too. :)

  13. Four dwarves in exchange of a good joke, huh? So all you want is a little laugh? I didn't realize dwarves were so cheap. And uh, what happens if I feed them after midnight?

    1. You didn't hear the last news, my friend. It so happens my dwarves found Alex Cavanaugh's cloning machine and they cloned themselves. Alex gave back 600 dwarves instead of the 150 he borrowed (and he doesn't say it but I bet my scales he was laughing to death about it as he passed me the report.) That's why I am giving them away. Don't worry about the feeding, since they are clones, they don't eat. ;)

    1. I am threatening with roasting them in they don't behave, hahaha. Glad to send another four to your home. Good for cleaning. Thank you very much! :)

  16. Can I borrow a Pancholine? I'm not good at humor and I worry a dwarf would break more than he cleans. How are dwarves at entertaining cats?

    1. I'll send you the dwarves that are more easily trained so you can teach them do nice cat tricks. Maybe he breaks something but only at first. :)

    2. Only if you want one to come back punch-drunk... ;)

  20. Man, I tell you, you're getting quite popular. Pretty soon, you're going to be nominated to run for president! Depending on who'll be in the running the next election, people just might induct a foreign dragon to be 45th US President! Writer’s Mark

    1. Hahaha, don't think that will happen. I'm bad with politics and can't leave my country. Would miss it way too much.
