Contest - Free Cards?? Who is not up for "FREE CARDS"

Just wanted to broadcast this contest that 'The Hamiltonian' is hosting on the hockey portion of their blog. I am by far not the wittiest person out there it the ether. I have read contributors, and I have the Root Beer laden keyboards to attest to the fact, that there are some funny-ass people out there.

Check out the contest

Put my sad, sophomoric contribution to shame. Let's get some funny stuff going.

Don't think creativity is not rewarded? You can win a SWEET, SICK, MOJO, (insert adjective here) jersey hit from an amazing product.

Put my entry to shame.

Cheers,

Winter Olympics Contest.......update.

Yesterday I claimed my spot in JD's Wild Cardz Winter Olympics Contest.

All of the countries are randomized and assigned a number. I decided to see what would be revealed behind Door #1.

Who did I get? Well...........................


After some researching about who exactly India were sending to the Winter Olympics I am looking forward to rooting on "my team". India's contingent for the games consists of 8 people all together with 3 of those being participating athletes. I will be watching excitedly now to see how Shiva Keshavan does in the Luge, how Tashi Lundup will do in Cross-country Skiing (this is event along with the Biathlon are actually two of my favorite events to watch) and I will be watching for Jamyang Namgyal tearing up the slopes of Whistler in the Alpine Skiing events.


Thanks to JD's for running this contest and introducing a welcomed addition to who I will be rooting for these next few weeks.

On a bit of a down note, while reading about my new team it seems that the two skiers, who are part of the Indian Army, arrived to the games greeted by news that 17 of their colleagues were killed in an avalanche while on manoeuvres.

Also giving me reason to cheer is that India has yet to medal in the Winter Olympics since first competing in 1964. THEY'RE DUE!!!!!!

If you have not already, and provided there still is time and slots available, got to JD's Wild Cardz and enter the contest. Whatever the prizes it will be fun all around!!!

Cheers,

Winter Olympics Contest

Who in their right mind does not like a contest?

Everyone loves a contest.

Now, consider a contest that is based on a contest.

That is just CRAZY, you say?

Well, follow the link on over to JD's Wild Cardz and get in ont his Winter Olympics contest. All you have to do is pick a number, watch the Winter Olympics and you could walk away with FREE CARDS!!!

Yup, you read that right. Pick a number, sit on you a$$ watching other people do stuff and you could get free cards.

While you are at JD's blog check out this post about an incredible, well-deserved prize for being a super-smart-code-breaking wizard. Leave him a comment telling him just that too!!

Go.

Now.

Stop reading.

GO!!!!

Self Serving Post.....I am embarrased

I began by feeling guilty about posting this simply to enter a contest. Almost two weeks without a post, neglected 'Mail Day' thank-yous on top of it. Then I realised, there may actually be some wayward soul out there who has not heard of/read Trader Crack's Card Blog. If you have not then I suggest you get over there RIGHT NOW and start going through the archives.

When you have a spare second then enter the more than generous contest that has been offered.

Some people are simply generous.

Hammerin' Hank Global Contest

In perhaps what is the best giveaway I have witnessed in my short time here among you all, Mario over at Wax Heaven is giving away a Hank Aaron #/49 Autograph Card from the 2009 Razor Sports Icons.

I think Joey Styles sums up Mario's generosity perfectly;



Take the time, drop by Wax Heaven, learn something and leave Mario a thank-you.
