Contest Winners

After a bit of deliberation I am pleased to announce the winners of the Win "Like Vegas, with Jo-Jo's" T-Shirt Contest: Protest sign winners (2) Derrak Ostovic - "Impeach Josh, Vote for Kirsten" Jeff Rockwood - "Stop In-Law Workplace Harassment" Look for these shining new protest signs to be added to the header in the near future. Flattering Review Winner: Patty Moledor - it's such a nice review I'm not sure that she actually wrote it about this blog:

This blog is blessed with many great things. It's open transparency tugs at the heart strings. The humor is full of much fun and fodder. But best of all...God is always genuinely honored.
Scathing Review Winner: Jeremy Bear:
Josh’s lousy blog once did some plumbing on my bathroom sink. After it was finished, the leak was worse than ever and my cat was pregnant. Draw your own conclusions.
Referral Winner: Jeremy really captured the spirit of this contest and sent a lot of traffic to the site. In fact he sent over 20% of the hits - clearly making him the winner in terms of referrals. So, Jeremy wins not one, but TWO t-shirts. What he does with them is up to him. So winners - you should be receiving your shirts very soon. Merry Christmas and thanks for playing. For the winners, and anybody else that has a T-shirt - send me a picture, something fun to fill the flickr files.

Technology problems lead to low self-esteem?

After I ran the Christmas contest last year, a lot of people that read my blog said that they saw the contest and would have entered but for some reason or another decided not to. Apparently that is happening again. Now my pride tells me to not say anything about this and act like I had a bunch of people enter and give prizes to the few people that have entered. But for some reason I'm not going to let my sense of self-importance influence this contest. (Don't worry, I still feel self-important, I think most bloggers probably do.) This time I'm taking a knee and stating for the record that at this point I've only had two people enter the contest by submitting stuff, and two others by referring people. With five days left in the contest - I was starting to develop a bit of a complex. Then I found out my entry form wasn't working. So if any of you have tried to submit, and haven't had the form go anywhere - I apologize. So to submit your entry send an email to contest@gitgan.com. The field is wide open, anyone can win so, please submit your entry soon. Thanks again and sorry about the problems with the form.
