My 100th Post Giveaway!



Yikes! It's my 100th Post! Yes there will be a giveaway, and no it won't be cash. But I got your attention didn't I? Sorry. (We are in a recession here, people!) Before we get into all of the details, such a glorious occasion deserves a well-written speech. I had my speech writers over at Academy Awards Acceptance Speech Generator throw a little sumpin' sumpin' together. Since they didn't have anything remotely associated with 100 Posts in blogland, I had to go with this:


Acceptance Speech for the Outstanding Achievement in Gaffing Oscar:

Thank you! Oh! Thank you! I can hardly believe this! I feel so lucky! And this statue - it's so shiny! Oh, thank you again! I just want everyone to bow down before me and accept that even in my wildest hallucinations, I never could have imagined how this would validate my mediocrity. And to the other second-rate nominees, I want each of you to know how totally saddened your lackluster applause makes me feel right now!

You know when they first told me I wasn't pretty enough, I just had to take a Xanax and obsess about how generous my thighs have been. I guess it all just makes me feel kinda numb

You know, there are so many obsequious little people to thank! First off though, I want to pay off the esteemed people of the Academy, who looked deep within their lint-encrusted navels before giving me this fantastic award! Also, I want to thank Charleton Heston, for being such a powerful force in my kitchen. And to the People Under the Stairs, who taught me to take life by the horns. And finally, to all the personal assistants I fired - I couldn't have done it without you!

Thank you America, and good night!

(cue orchestra music)

So......for those of you who are still here. You too can write your own Academy Awards Acceptance speech (it's a little like playing Mad Libs), or you could just bag that and enter my giveaway.
Since I am at a loss for what to offer you for your devotion to me and my ramblings, I will go with the generic "My Favorite Things Basket". (I will post a photo tomorrow.) Trust me, it's gonna be exciting!

To Enter:
Leave a comment on this post. You can enter as many times as you'd like, but only once per day. Entries will be accepted until 11:59pm March 16th. The LUCKY winner will be announced on St. Patricks Day.
