Last month, we started a new feature on Neatorama: an open forum for Neatorama readers. In the blog post introducing the forum, I promised that the best posters will win a mystery prize, and since I'm a man of my words, here it is:
Congratulations to SparkS, blakdragon, and Johnny Cat for being the top forum posters. As my thanks, they'll get a free iPod shuffle (they even get to choose the colors!). The rest of the top participants in the forum, shown above, will get a free Neatorama T-Shirt.
Thank you again for putting in the time and effort to make the Neatorama forum an enjoyable to hang out and chat!
I was thinking the auction could be right here on Neatorama. Alex could start the topic and take only bids and let it run a certain preselected time. Seems simple to me. I do simple. GGGG Tell the truth I know zip about the iPod Shuffle. Is there only one version/model? I only need that so I can come up with a starting bid. It might not go anywhere since prices on the internet vary so much. But I think it would be fun and some wee ones can be the real winners. Alex could send it to the winner or to me and I'll forward it on. Doesn't matter.
Who'da thunk I'd win an award for being such a motor mouth. GGGGG
2D, I'm pretty naive but how will we know if you don't do that? GGGG
ted, you realize since my memory is as long as the hair on my head I had to go back and reread what I wrote. GGGG
Speaking of "holy cow", I just added some cable channels to my favorites. Past hour I've been watching Why I Ran on A&E. High speed chases and then interviews with the person they were chasing. Holy Cow! Is on 0400 to 0500 EST.
Seriously, thanks! I'll make sure not to wear it when I'm burping the baby... ;-)

I'm not sure what SparkS meant by auction, but I'll leave that up to him.
