2010 Worst Purrformance in a video Winner

@Ryker_Tyker

Meowzers!  My very own Acceptance Speech! [Person, you taking dictation?] 

*clears throat* (pause) *runs through a few test yowls to warm up voice*  MIMIMIMIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII! 

*taps mike* (Person: Ryker, stop it. That really gets on the audio tech's nerves. Trust me on this.)

*glares at Person* (pause) *turns back on Person and studiously IGNORES her* (Sighhhh...good help, SO hard to find these days!)

AHEM.

"Thanks you, thanks you... it's such an honor to be recognized for such an achievement. People think it's easy to win the title, "Worst Purrformance in a Video," but let me tell you, it's taken many long, difficult months' worth of rigorous training and refinement to achieve such a coveted goal!

I have to thank @Allie_Kitti for being my inspiration. She was always there (always, incessantly, omnipresently, ANNOYINGLY there) biting, clawing, pouncing and stalking me...driving me to the height of perfection.

*bows to Allie...from a respectful distance* I think it's fair to say, Allie, that without you there would be no Anipal Academy Award for this Tonk!

To the Academy, who had the Good Taste to see through the surface yowls to the tormented soul that lay beneath such a memorable diatribe and recognize my Star Qualities....I thank you, one and all.

And finally, to my Person. Without your catering to my every whim, indulging me shamelessly and basically spoiling me beyond rotten, I would never have developed such a demanding yowl.  For all the (many) days you worked late and I greeted you with an affronted wail (at the top of my lungs)... for all the occasions where I tested your response time by demanding treats at 120 decibels (whaddaya mean, that's the threshold of pain? Humans. SUCH wimps. Rilly.) ...

I humbly thank you.

Hark! Is that my Agent calling? Must run, my Adoring Fans await...."

<<<>>>> ooooooh! *squeal!* SPOTLIGHTS! Paparazzi! Just what a Girl NEEDS to feel Special and GLAM! *bats eyes and arranges pink toenails for optimum camera angle* Is this my best side, Dame? Is it? Is it? *giggle* 

What? They're not here for MEEEE? This is all for Ryker?!?!? ooooooooooooohhhhhhh.... <<<<>>>>

[Ryker's Person here:  sorry guys, interview's over, gotta go avert- *CRASH! HISS! YOWWWWWWL!* ....disaster.... ]

And the winners are......

And the winners are.....

All of us at the #AAAC would like to say once again congratulations to all of the 2010 winners, nominees, and of course the anipal community. Without all of you none of this would be possible. 

Due to time constraints during the ceremony our winners had to hold onto their acceptance speeches...We would like to thank them for their patience and understanding. We will be posting their photo’s and acceptance speeches here on our blog and on our facebook page. 

Thanks Anipal Community for a Smashing Success!

This years Anipal Academy Awards Ceremony is in the books. The Red Carpet is rolled up, the auditorium is empty, the anipals are all at home relaxing. But the good feelings, camaraderie, fun, live on. 

Our organization was put together to honor all Anipals and the close knit community we've become. While we enjoyed every minute of doing it, we never lost sight that it was FOR all of you and ABOUT all of you. @AutumnTheDoxie and I have so many to thank, and we will do this in a seperate dedicated blog, but our committee was first rate. We will do this every year, and next year plan to have a lot more public input into the nominees by having a multi-stage vote.

We will also continue to honor Anipals and their Humans that have special talents several times throughout the year, just like @SeattleP (Jeego) and @MaggieTKat did at the Friday night #NipClub special Red Carpet Pre-Pawty.

Most of all we'd like to thank you for the donations to our Charity for Animal Cancer Research. We hit 130% of our goal, and because of an anonymous benefactor at the Research Institute, our donations will receive matching funds, so, in effect we raised over $2600 for animal cancer research. Thank you all!!!!!

So many of our friends suffer from cancer and related illnesses, @MulderCat for example, and @BuzzLucas who has been spared because of treatments developed through research. And so many have moved on to Rainbow Bridge because of this disease. My own brofur @_Bill_The_Cat and my lovely lady @DCKitty and  so  many more. It's an Honor and tribute to these great friends that we can help fund ending this horrible disease. Thanks so much for helping. 

I love you all, 

Tiger Tommy ( @TheNascarKitty )

and now a recap of this years big winners!

Here's the BEST way to watch to Anipal Academy Awards Show!!!!!

As you know, the Anipal Academy Awards Ceremony will take place during the July 17th PawPawty. Most of you already  know that Pawty's work best on TweetGrid or TweetDeck.  These Twitter client programs let you search for specific hashtags and Pawty with Anipals you don't normally follow and would not see on your twitter timeline.

We have produced our Awards Ceremony to fit into pawpawty with a SEPERATE hashtag which will allow comments by the Master's of Ceremonies, the Awards Presenters, and accompanying photos and video to play in a sperate dialog box, while anipals still pawty in the normal way at the same time.

For those of you who already use TweetDeck or TweetGrid here's the hashtags you should keep active: #pawpawty   AND  #aaac.  Search both these hashtags and you will be Pawtying your tail off in no time.


We do ask that you dont use the #aaac hastag on your tweets, and try to remove it from retweets. Please. Thanks.

For those of you new to TweetGrid here's a quick tutorial.  Go to Http://Tweetgrid.com then when you are there, click on the Tab that reads  1 by 3. This will open three windows on your screen. On the top of each window is a dialog box you can enter text into. On the FAR LEFT one, enter the word pawpawty and click on search. This will show you EVERYONE that is pawtying.

In the MIDDLE BOX enter the letters aaac and this will be the screen where you watch the ceremony unfold.

In the RIGHT BOX enter your twitter name without the "@". For example, I would type TheNascarKitty. This will be your quick reference box, where you can see Tweets directed at you.

ABOVE the three boxes there is a Dialog box where you can enter your email Username and Login, and also the hashtag pawpawty. When you tweet from this box it automatically adds that Pawty hashtag.

It's pretty easy. But if you are nervous why not practice early , like at #NipClub on Friday night. (see schedule below).

AnipalAcademyAwards/Pawpawty/NipClub Schedule: July 16 and 17, 2010

Spend the rest of the weekend pawtying your tail off. 

Dont forget to visit @JavaTheCat's Zazzle Store for souvenir t-shirts, hats, bags, etc. and please donate to the Charity which funds Animal Cancer Research.

And Most of all: HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!
