We Have a Winner!


Hola Bitches!

♫ Guess who’s back, guess who’s back, guess who’s back ♫

Well last week was a fun time. My sister and her husband and Cosette were here. I thought I would still have time to do some blogging and commenting, and I did. The problem was I just didn’t have the energy to do much of either.

Most of the week was spent hanging out around here, over at friend and one day over at grandma’s house. And, just for the fun of it let’s review my dinner selections for the last week or so, shall we?

Sat: Spaghetti
Sun: Spaghetti
Mon: TV Dinner
Tues: Fried Chicken and coleslaw
Wed: Chili w/ Fritos
Thurs: Pizza
Fri: Leftover chili and Fritos

Vegetables? I don’t think so.

We also enjoyed a bottle of $4.50 Merlot, some Columbia Crest Riesling and Coppola Merlot. Aaaand a bit of Bullet Bourbon.

And of course Cosette kept us entertained the whole time ...

In other news I finally did the drawing for the book. And of course I did it on video so you could see it ...



So a big congratulations to Dana! For those of you who didn’t win, Dana will be holding a drawing when she’s finished with the book too. Hopefully we can pass this book all around the blogosphere.

The Contest Ninja

It's not my style to brag but ....

Once again I have put my amazing Ninja-like mind skills on display for all to see. For the second year in a row, I fired up my ultra-competitive spirit along with lighting fast mental reflexes and WON the second round of Tink's 3rd Annual PB Contest last Friday. The contest being the big closing party of her 3rd Annual Summer Extravaganza.

I tell ya folks, I should have video taped myself winning that contest. It was something to see. I think that video probably would have become the standard for how to compete in blog contests. That video would be broken down and analyzed by people all over the world. Teachers would use it to inspire school kids and it would be used in seminars to teach business leaders how to use their analytical skills. They would probably be featuring me in the "Society" section of major newspapers and somebody would make an hour long special about me to be broadcast on CNBC or The Learning Channel. Maybe Discover Channel too, if they could squeeze it in with all the shows about animals killing and screwing.

But since there is no video the story of my legendary victory will have to be passed down the old fashioned way from generation to generation. Mothers and fathers will have to gather their children around an all-meat pizza, a case of Lone Star Beer and a bottle of Cabo Wabo Tequila the fireplace and tell them the inspiring story of my victory.

I do want to give a shout out to one of my competitors though. Fiwa fought hard and is certainly an impressive advisary worthy of my respect. Especially since I beat her in round two. But, I will be honest with you. Had I gotten the word verification wrong, Fiwa would have won that round. When I hit "publish comment" and the comment box reloaded my answers to the questions and Fiwa's popped up at the same time. Luckily mine were in front of hers so I won. I think that just adds more luster to my victory. It was so intese and close! But, congrats to Fiwa for coming back later and winning her own victory in the Surprise Round. That was a very impressive win. Well, as impressive as any win can be when I'm excluded from competing because of the fact that I had already won a round. haha ;-)~

Don't forget that tomorrow is the WWC. The words are High and Low. That is also hosted by Tink. You know, it's starting to become rather obvious to me that the blogosphere is pretty much Tink's world and the rest of us are just paying rent. That's okay though. She's cool.
