Hello all. Hope this post finds you in good cheer. It most certainly does for me, seeing as this is my 500th POST!!!
Anyways, enough with the pretenses and onto the main event. I’ve got a stake in a big blogathon over at “He Shot Cyrus;” it’s the first time I’ve ever really gotten involved in one of these things. Fellow bloggers are submitting a piece that they believe to be either their best or their most underrated.
It’s definitely worth a look; after all, it’s all your favorite bloggers (including myself) presenting their best work. What’s not to love?
The piece I chose to submit was my feature from a few weeks ago “More Reflections on Avatar.” I spent a lot of time writing it, and I do think it has a lot of good analysis and some of my deepest thinking yet. I’d love for you to give it a second glance. It may not be the best thing I’ve ever written, but I’m sure it’s one of my most underrated.
And don’t just go and look at my piece. Look at everyone’s stuff because it’s all phenomenal. It’s a great way to remind yourself of all the talent there really is out there, and I’m proud to cohabit the web with them. Today is the second day of the three day event, so be sure to head over and do some great reading. You might wind up discovering some new sites, much like I did.
And a big thank you (or perhaps “muchas gracias” is better) to El Gringo, who wrote some very nice comments about the post and the site in his write-up.

Congrats on making it to 500…I oughta get to 1000 by the fall.
Also happy to be in the same post as you form the “My Best Post”-a-Thon. While I’m sure I read this when you first posted it, I can’t wait to give it another look!
Congrats! great work
We loved Avatar… and we hate the haters. It bugs us how people bash the simple plot, but we believe sometimes films are stronger when they aren’t trying so hard to mess with your head and give you unnecessary twists and turns and subplots.
And yes, this is sci-fi Pocahontas… but what’s so wrong with re-telling a story? Hollywood does it all the time! And this one is retold in a way nobody has ever seen before. It was more than telling a story – it was the creation of an entire world.
There. I feel better after venting my two cents.
