Giveaways! This week saw the return of the Tokyo Flash Treasure Hunt. I'll slide the winners' names in here as soon as I get them.
Another prize giveaway is still open for entries. Read the instructions for What's In The Box? Transformers and you might win some nice movie swag! At least, that's MY guess as to what's in the box...
This week's What Is It? game came up a day earlier than usual, and we got a winner faster than usual.
Ladybuggs knew this was a knife designed to be used in a life raft. Here’s the description from Rob at the What Is It? blog:
A US Navy life raft knife, part of the survival kit on a life raft, cork handle so it floats, holes make it lighter, rounded end so it won’t puncture the raft, painted orange so it can be seen if lost overboard, also a lanyard to tie it to the raft
The Professor had the funniest answer -a hedgehog quill-scraper! Both winners will receive a t-shirt from the NeatoShop!
