Yes, it is the time of year when I ponder on the cornucopia of candidates from which will come the winner and runner(s)-up of the Twerp of the Year Awards, the antidote to the self-publicists, boasters etc who actively seek to receive an award. I discovered recently that there are organisations that work to boost the chances of a person receiving an award. You have to pay for the service of course. All rather pathetic.
