As of this morning, we have a mere 537 comments to go in our quest for 35,000–and I’d like to see this done before we embark upon our Christmas Carol Contest.
Whosoever posts Comment No. 35,000 will win a dazzling prize! I can’t decide whether to offer a deluxe thoroughbred horse farm on the scenic Gulf of Ob, or to continue the tradition of the winner getting an autographed copy of one of my books.
The contest is open to all, and all comments are eligible, with the following exceptions: comments abusive to anyone else on this site; comments containing blasphemy or profanity; commercials disguised as comments; or words simply too inane to bother with. Other than that, anything goes.
Good morning, and thanks for the update. I think I would prefer the book if I should be lucky enough to make the last comment.
I was hoping for a planet; hopefully one with a bit less nonsense in the daily news. 🙂
On Mars they sell Bell Mountain Candy in the lobby at the movies.
A-a-are you sure??? Then I wanna go to Mars! Where’s my rocket? But I sure don’t want to encounter any “aliens” on the way! 👽🍬
I’m there.
And I was kinda hoping for a pet Indominous Rex… and an Indoraptor to go with it…
But there’s no better prize than an autographed copy of one of Lee Duigon’s amazing books!
Besides, I don’t want to get ‘eaten’ by my own prize. Getting an autographed Bell Mountain book is a couple thousand times better! 🙂
I was hoping for a jackalope but a book by you is fine.
The horse farm sounded good until I thought about all the manure. We get enough manure in our daily news, so I’ll forgo the horse farm. Come to think of it, I would have taken the book instead anyway.
You’d pass up the Gulf of Ob?
Man my overseas trip is going to curtail my ability to comment and win the contest!
I may be among the missing for a while — at least in the comments section — because I took a nasty fall Saturday morning, and I’m beginning to think I may have a slight concussion, not to mention a messed-up knee that I hope is only sprained and not broken. I may go over to urgent care later today, but meanwhile I’d appreciate some prayers. Thanks and blessings to all.
On a happy — or at least grimly amusing — note, I fell in church. When the pastor heard about it after Mass, he anointed me and prayed over me. If we’re going to be injured, church is a good place to do it.
Prayers coming right up!
