We're trying to get Lawrence to the stage for his acceptance speech, but he's locked himself in his dressing room with his DVR. He's watching reruns of American Idol, Dancing With the Stars and America's Next Top Model and refuses to answer the door.

While we are waiting for Lawrence, let us take a moment to remember those we lost this year:


Broker 8-29-2008 to 4-13-2009

Thank you.

Please be patient while Highway Star tries to get Lawrence to the stage. This may be a good time to use the restroom.

Thank you! Oh! Thank you! I can hardly believe this! I feel so lucky! Today, I have a privilege given few expediters — the privilege of accepting the EO Leadership Award and I accept it with gratitude, humility and confidence. And this award (lifts it in air) - it, it's so heavy! Oh, thank you again!

I just want everyone to know that even in the early days of promoting EO on the CB, I never would have believed that this award could ever validate my ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder). And to the other super-amazing nominees, I want each of you to know how totally mega-pumped your crushing defeat makes me feel right now!

You know when they first told me I was nominated, I just had to take a minute and laugh about how many times I have had to use my "remove button" on Broker. I guess it all just makes me feel kinda like a Flying J Fuel Desk Clerk at 3:00 am.

You know, there are so many people to thank! First off though, I want to thank Humble2Drive and Captain O. who looked deep within their consciousness before giving me this awesome award! Also, I want to thank Charleton Heston, for being such a powerful force in my life. And to the my Jack Russell Terrier - Kipper, who taught me to take life by the day. And finally, to all the EO Nation - I couldn't have done it without you!

Thank you America, and good night!




LOL! LOL! LOL!


Thanks...for real! :)

We hope you've enjoyed this years EO Awards, brought to you by the revolutionary new web browser "What's That Supposed To Mean? 6.0".

Let the WTSTM 6.0 do it for you! This new browser can be customized to your particular sensibilities. Simply set the "pizz-off-protocalls" to suit whatever it is that gets YOUR panties in a wad! The WTSTM 6.0. Being a PITA just became a little bit easier.

For more info, go to majorhissyfit.com.

The WTSTM 6.0 has been endorsed by the Former Members of the EO Forum counsel.

These Awards should have been kept open a little longer, as it seems a few were missed. Important ones too!

"Most Improved Co-Driver After Receiving Proper Training"

"Kenzie"

Before... and after, excellent training from Cheri. Great Job Cheri! Congratulations Kenzie!

Haha - we just ran into Terry O'Connell, who gave Kenzie a dog biscuit, and she accepted it graciously, but wouldn't actually eat it, lol. Terry thought she's a prima donna, but she doesn't usually eat treats - she hides them. Preferably under a pillow, sigh. :eek:
Now, if I could persuade DOT that she's a legitimate codriver........

Another award:

The person who did the most innovations to the truck:
RLENT

I know that there are others with highly modified vehicles, but RLENT does all the work himself. Great fountain of knowledge he is.
