I'm now into the finals of Gavin's super contest for the Bargain Queen, aptly named "So You Think You Can Market?" (how the hell am I supposed to punctuate that?)
Go here to read, then vote. I fear I'm about to receive an ass-kicking of the first degree with this guy's army of classmates and facebook friends, but you can make my loss just a little less humiliating.
And because I have no photo to post, you can see what a bored Sunday afternoon will do. Here's my shitty music video for the Silver Arrows. Enjoy it. Or don't.
I'll miss you IPod Touch. We would have made a great pair...
Congrats and good luck man. In an interesting twist you're up against a college student that is in an Ithaca College course that has my blog(?!?!?!?!) on the required reading list. How am I supposed to choose who to support on this one? Well, I guess the odds that I'll be in Dallas and in prime position for a McEnany ass-kicking are better than the odds I'll be in Ithaca, so I guess that's that...

I think your strategy to drive more traffic to The Bargain Queen is a good one. A "send to him" button would be a win win situation for both parties: women don't have to get him to sit down and listen to requests and guys don't have to initiate the conversation. Plus you drive traffic to the site which is one of the measurable goals of the brief.
The social networking (?) application/widget is good but...I'm so over freakin SNS at the moment. Facebook is getting stupid with it.
Anyway, high five. Your solution gets my vote. I guess I should copy this and paste it at Servent....

The competition is hotting up! Make sure you all vote!

Greg- And you forgot my superior level of awesomeness. That's really why you should vote for me. :)
Erin- Thank you ma'am!
And everyone do what Gavin said!

Sorry I missed the voting, but I love your idea of having a "Send to Him" button. We women often assume that men can read between the lines and get our subtle gift hints. Personal experience with my husband has taught me otherwise. I now know that it's just better to make it ultra-clear in the first place.

OK I didn't vote. Well, give 'em hell, and punctuation never hurt anyone so don't worry 'bout it.
