Posted by Les on May 4, 2012 at 11:35 AM


Greetings Manic Fans.  Les here with the assistance of the OBotW committee to bring you the Outstanding text and video blogs of the week for April 22nd to April 28.  As always, you all posted some really awesome stuff that made it hard to select a winner.  Here’s a big list of Honorable Mentions:

Text Blogs

Les and Dark Jak posted a nostalgic collaboration:  Les and Dark Jak’s Top Ten Live Action Disney Films  4/27/12
And even this list doesn't reflect all the wonderful blogs that were posted this week.  But now we must present the winner:
Jason on the House 

Who posted a courageous veil lifting open letter to the site membership in:  Confessions of a Blogoholic  4/27/12 


Confession/apology blogs are difficult to do, and Jason on the House, confessing to actually being Lindgren was a very brave article to write and make public after leading the secret identity for so long.  The public response was forgiving and supportive, and affirmative of everything Manic Expression stands for.

And so, my friends, lift your glasses for the traditional OBotW toast.  "To Lindgren...er...Jason on the House(sorry), May you continue in honest, down to Earth blogging that expresses who you are, unashamedly proud."
