You read that correctly, folks. To commemorate the beginning of what I'm absolutely positive will be the very long life of this forum, I'm giving away a toy blimp. This is one and only chance to get a small window of insight of what it is to be Mike_v_s!!!!
The rules:
This is an essay contest. To qualify, I'll need you to submit at least 250 words (via PM) on why you think you deserve a toy blimp. The more words, the more serious I know you are. The essay that strikes me correctly will be the winner. Only 2 entries per contestant and they must be submitted by midnight on Thursday, April 8, 2010. I'll announce the winner whenever I get around to it.
Mike

|  | Yeah, I've got the moves like Jagger. | | Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: G.R. MI | | | Before I begin working on my submission I'm going to need to know where this toy blimp has been kept in relationship to your pants.
You gotta check the carfax before taking ownership of a slightly used toy blimp you know.

I want a damn blimp.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jul 2004 Location: an ignore list near you | | | Gentlemen. The blimp will be new when it gets to my house. After that I'll need to make an adjustment or two before forwarding it on to the winner. It will not have touched my pants (unless the winner specifies this request). I'll need your pleading in the form of AT LEAST a 250 word essay to consider your entry. Thank you.
