250k Contest Winners

Ok, here's the folks who submitted screenshots for the contest:

DeltaT, HeroJR, ATC, Jawgoosh, and Speedbmp.

Here's the methodology of the drawing. I wrote down the names of the entrants in no particular order. Then I asked a co-worker to randomly assign them numbers, 1-5.

After that, I asked TaxiSquad to pick (3) random numbers (without knowing who the numbers were assigned to).

Here's how my Co-Worker assigned the numbers:

ATC - #3

Speedbmp - #4

Jawgoosh - #5

DeltaT - #1

HeroJR - #2

250k Contest Prizes

Ok...  I've been super busy this week, as you may have noticed from a lack of blog posts.  But I hadn't come up with prizes for the contest yet.

So, here's what I'm thinking:

1st Place - An unopened Microsoft Office 2007 Professional, or an Xbox game of your choice, or a 1 year subscription to Xbox Live for 1st place.  I'm hesitant to give the Office 2007 away, but at the same time, I'm not sure I really need it.  I'll let the 1st place winner know what I decide when I contact them.

2nd Place - $25 Gift Card to Game Stop or 1600 MS Pts.

Home Shit Home

Well, I finally made it home last night. I almost wish I never came back. The heat here is disgusting. I came home, and my thermometer read 108 degrees. I didn't even check the heat index. I came from temperatures that read in the 50s in the morning and evening, and it was a dry heat, not this sticky shit here in Texas.

The final tally for the trip:

Days on Vacation: 10

States driven through or visited: 4

Miles driven: 2,500

Kidney stones experienced: 1

Number of times the dog shit in the car: 1

Relatives seen/visted: 20

Griswald Adventures

Summer vacation.  What can I say?  It's possibly the first time I've took an entire week +1 day off for a vacation.  Unfortunately, like previous "vacations", it really isn't a vacation, as family is involved for the majority of the trip.

The Bill of Rights

If the Bill of Rights were put to a vote (under a different name and slightly different wording, of course), it would probably lose in a landslide. Seems about right.
