Thank You, 'Time' Magazine

As the year sputters to an end, we see more round-ups, countdowns and accolades. More often then not, they're pithy, inconsequential and arbitrarily awarded, but every now and then, they make the right choice. Like Time awarding me – a blogger, MySpacer, YouTuber and Flickrer (I think I got that one right) – their Person of the Year award. Finally, they got one right.



I, Wells Dunbar, thank you for my award.
