Number One in 2007
 


San Felipe, Baja, Mexico
San Felipe Magazine

 

During 2007, The Baja San Felipe Magazine had a strategy (it came late in the year so managed to avoid being a 12-Step-Plan) to determine a number of 'San Felipe Bests for 2007'. Ballot boxes were established in prominent locations in town and covered 60 categories, from Best Architect to Best WiFi location (with beer). The editor of this web site regrettably informs you that, despite a public plebiscite and impartial ballot-counting (unlike one other peninsula over 400 miles long), Blueroadrunner was chosen San Felipe's best web site.

So what went wrong? In a country where bribes, nepotism and corruption rule, how did a little guy manage to bob to the surface of an e-pond filled with larger cyberfish, each with much deeper virtual pockets?

Is it possible Blueroadrunner's victory owes a debt of gratitude to G.W. Bush? Is it possible the man's ability to inspire loathing compelled the deciding 'Best of San Felipe' voters to board earlier planes for Iowa and New Hampshire, determined to keep a Republican blight from again settling on the tired shoulders of a weary American electorate?

It's nice to think this may be a viable explanation. It proves the SOB was good for something.

Blueroadrunner wishes to thank everyone who voted for it. And for those who would have voted otherwise but had to leave beforehand to cast their ballot for Obama, Richardson or Kucinich, --thanks for saving America.
