Okay, here is the poll to determine how the majority of my readers want to receive their winnings.

Thanks for your participation.

Well, I think the idea was okay—just not the enthusiasm to win the $75. Six of my readers responded to the quiz, with no one scoring the requisite 75% or better criteria. I was to have given $75 to the 75th person who scored 75% or better on the quiz.

Here is another idea [your comments are welcomed].

• End this contest
• Add $25 more
• Open a contest for $100
• You determine what store [or cash via PayPal] the e-card or gift certificate comes from. This poll closes 10/15/2009.

The new contest: You predict the year, month, date, hour, minute, & second that this blog reaches the 100K milestone [hits or page views are visible at the top of the side-bar on the right of the blog]. The individual who submits the most accurate prediction with the oldest date wins the $100.00. The winner will be announced just after the 100k milestone is reached.

The mechanics:

• Poll to determine what store [or cash via PayPal] the e-card or gift certificate comes from
• Submission of predictions
• Reach the 100K Milestone
• Announce the winner
• Get the $100 to the winner

I’m hoping for a much higher level of participation. Thanks again for your readership. –jim
