Today on the Shark Blog, we are launching a new feature called "Blog of the Day", where each day we acknowledge one of the many fine blogs that share our blogosphere.

DISCLAIMERS: Although the Blog of the Day designation does not come with a trophy, new car, cash prize, or anything of the like, it is a tremendous pat on the back for writing a fine blog. Because of the enormous prestige value, Blog of the Day designees may go on to win lucrative book deals or breakfast cereal endorsement contracts. On the other hand, the sudden fame might go to someone's head and they end up hurling themselves into a downard spiral of self-destruction. In either case, I accept my fair share of the credit but none of the liability. Undoubtedly, competition for this honor will be fierce, so here are some more disclaimers. (1) the decisions are made in my sole discretion, therefore my friends and relatives and people I want to suck up to are all eligible (2) all decisions are final, but hey, there's always tomorrow (3) becoming Blog of the Day is not unlike getting elected Pope. You may campaign for the office, but only by appearing to be humble and indifferent to it. The only sure way to take yourself out of the running is to ask me to consider you for Blog of the Day.

With further ado, the first Blog of the Day winner will be announced tomorrow. I know who it will be, but you don't, so please, no wagering.
