Sorry, I'm late, but I had trouble getting my Passport in order for the flight over in time for the ceremony!

I'd like to thank everyone who voted for me in both categories, and in each I was honoured to be placed with the other nominations. Also, in both the intelligent and informative categories, I'd like to say that there were several forum posters not nominated who were just as worthy as those that were - some of them being quite recent additions to the Ultimate Disney family.

But a note to everyone for next year: "Intelligent" does not mean "Opinionated" keep that in-mind when you vote :)

Personally my biggest pleasure comes from the fact that my thread was Disney DVD was voted Thread of the Year. At the time, I didn't think this thread may much impact as posts and poll entries soon trailed off. I'm pleased it was well regarded though, and I hope that if BVHE-Rep is reading this, he keeps that fact in mind.

Finally – I don't know what honours me the most, winning the highly coverted Golden Mickeys or the fact that Escapay remembered my Betty Boo obsession…

Thanks once again to everyone who took part, especially Aaron – who is Ultimate Disney's own single-handed Academy of <strike>Motion Picture Arts and Sciences</strike> Forum Posters.
Most of my Blu-ray collection some of my UK discs aren't on their database

:lol:

I had never even heard of Betty Boo until you mentioned it (I think in that "Which Celebrities Have You Crushed On?" thread) and now every so often, I remember the song and it takes forever to get it out of my head!

Hello Everyone:

Yes Disney Guru and The New Guruettes just arrived we know were late the Guru had some problems with his cosmetics.

Now a word from our darling manager The Guru:

"Would like to congratulate all of you darling wonderful people that won this year and to Escapay my dear boy, you have done it again what can I say we all love you darling hugs and kisses xoxo.
And to Luke, what can I say Luke i've been a member of this site for what is it almost 5 years Lordie where has the time gone your a doll sweetie, keep up the good work."

Now for the moment you've been waiting for the Guruettes new tune:

(to the tune of The Brady Bunch Theme:)

Here's the story of a guy named Luke
Who has produced a wonderful lil site
Which has been online for 5 years this year:)
Called UltimateDisney.com

Here's the story, of some Disney Fans.
Who constantly tried to find info on Disney facts.
But not really much luck at all due to lack of info.
So they kept on dilligently searching.

Till the one day when these fans found ole UD
And they knew that it was much more than a hunch.
That this group would somehow form a family.
That's the way we all became the UD Gang.
The UD Gang, THe UD Gang.

That's the way we became the UD Gang.

And also folks tonight a special guest star my favorite and yours Zsa Zsa Gabor direct from her Bel Air Estate:

Zsa Zsa: "Dahlings I am so happy to be able to talk to you tonite from my home, my sister Eva always loved Disney, you know
Disney this Disney that etc.etc ever since she made the 2 Rescuers films, and The Aristocats. So in honor of this being the 5 year
anniversary I decided to make an appearance of some kind, and in rememberance of my dear sister Eva who has been gone for 13 years.
And tell all of you dahling people, you are vonderful dahlings keep up the good work, and remember Marriage is a 50/50 proposition
he should be at least 50 years old, and have at least 50 million dollars. And last but not least my dahlings Zsa Zsa loves you :)"

Third Place for a Special Category: Forum Member You'd Like To Have A Brain Transplant With So You Can Acquire All Their Knowledge And Fun Little Quirks?!

NO WAY! I actually got nominated for such a great award, and THIRD PLACE? This is so surprising and wonderful! Thank you to everyone, for putting me in, and voting, and allowing it all in the first place. Special thanks to Julian Carter!

Thinking about the category and that I was considered for it is just such an honor and happiness, thank you all!

I'm glad that everyone seems to have enjoyed the awards... there was a noticeable increase in participation this year. I was really, really happy to see that; it makes it all the more worthwhile... so thanks to everyone for that. Thanks also to Disney Guru for another rockin' performance with The New Guruettes!
