For those of you that follow along print media, you may have noticed that the Transworld Awards happened this past weekend. The show went off, and the pro’s were all hyped as the honors went out to some unlikely and some obvious winners. I’m not sure if I agree with the Habitat team winning best team, but to each their own.

Greg Graffin of Bad Religion fame is going to be awarded 2008 the Outstanding Lifetime Achievement Award in Cultural Humanism from Harvard University. Simply because he’s been a long standing voice in the atheist community for a long time. Regardless of your personal religious leanings, this is a huge thing for a punk rocker, who paved the way for many melodic punksters that formed a band, lost their hair, and became college professors…all while still touring the nation.
Interesting sidenote: While I was in high school, Bad Religion asked a classmate of mine to use their home for a music video shoot. They declined and voiced their righteous decision in front of my class. I booed her out of the building, since it was stupid to decline their video shoot…considering there was money involved, and I am a huge Bad Religion fan. Even though I don’t believe the same way.
Congrats to Greg on that huge award.
