After agonized deliberation, I have made my 5 choices for recipients/victims of the Power of Schmooze blog award.
I understand that this is not supposed to be a mere popularity/friends list, but rather to reflect wide-ranging blogs and bloggers who reach out to the blog community.
Thank goodness several of my would-be choices have already received the award, so I don't have to worry about leaving them off. Thus JMC, The Ladies Way (aka Story Fairy) and of course, Heart.
I award this honor first to: Woman Gods Masterpiece (womangodsmasterpiece.blogspot.com), a team of bloggers with a great community and a sublime message to share.
Then, in random order, I select Adena (ilovesquishingants.blogspot.com), who is young but bright, and whose blog now and then delves into philosophy and various matters of science. Be prepared for a little rage and salty language, but toknow Her is to respect Her. She's recently expanded Her blog output and deserves credit for that.
Lance (toughmindwarmheart) also deserves this award as a propounder of deep philosophical treatises but also one who answers every comment to his blog and deserves wider recognition. I can't keep up with him intellectually.
Chase March is a compassionate school teacher who intends to see his writing published and will surely achieve that goal. His link list is small but he is very dedicated to and thoughtful of its members. Check him out at chasemarch.blogspot.com.
Amarpreet (aka Empress) writes passionately of social injustice, without being dreary -- indeed, She has a gift for disguising truth beneath light banter. Another worthy recipient.
Dawn loves dogs, as the best people always do. She also has built up quite a following on Her site, which is an indication of a blogger whose messages are worth reading. (http://www.dawnsdoghouse.com/b2evolution/index.php)
Certainly, there are other worthy recipients on my radar screen, but people who are better at math than I am, will already have realized that I have exceeded my limit. Stick around in blogworld and your turn will surely come.

I'm also supposed to post these links, for those folks curious as to the origin of all this:
