I just got an email from WebAds and Nefesh B'Nefesh asking me to nominate a fellow blogger for a free round-trip ticket to Israel to go to the Jewish blogger convention.
You can see more here on the convention website.
My first thought was, who could I possibly convince to nominate me. But then I realized that that list couldn't possibly be very long, so I'm giving up on that idea.
Instead I decided to think about who deserves to be on the flight.
Jameel perhaps, but he was on it last year. I think it would be amusing to meet Dov Bear (and then smack him around a bit), but I doubt he'd emerge from his cave.
Then it hit me. SoccerDad.
It's not that I read his blog that often, but the guy has been at the forefront of pushing Jewish blogging - and has mentioned my blog in his Jewish blog carnivals more than once. If any Jewish blogger deserves a free trip to Israel to the blogger convention, I'd have to give him my vote.
(I'm still going to nominate a few other bloggers though).
I'm curious who Jameel will choose (pick me, pick me).

I don't have a blog so I can't nominate someone but I would like to suggest you nominate http://sheffele.blogspot.com/ she is an unsung heroine who is trying to educate the Jewish world on topic it doesn't want to hear.
Kol Tuv,
Aba
um, this is probably a stupid question, but why do you need a free trip to Israel if you're already there?
It's round trip to NY for me.
While we now have a GAP here, we're still missing a few other key shops.
And I could see my family (perhaps that should have been listed first).
