I just missed out on the book rampage, but I would be soooo in on the basket give away! By the way, Notes from the trenches led me here. And just so you feel special, this is the first time I've ever left a comment on a blog.
Random info: I used to be a Carni. Now I'm a room mom for my son's 2nd grade class. I guess I'm OVER qualified to run the ring toss at the school carnival, although drunk rednecks and kids hyped up on candy really do have alot in common.

i picked a very unfortunate time to go missing from the internet.
dammit.

my hand weeps too - just seein mah name in your handwritin, your bloodsweattears dollin.what could i do but feel a bit verklempity.
and offer you a blogher drink ticket next year, least i could do since i'll prolly be there finally sans lamprays.

I didn't win but I see my name on the sheet! Makes me feel all special and stuff :D

Your son is adorable. Congrats Procrastamom!

*sob* I wanted to join in...... but those damn spammers stopped me.

But it is OK, some solictior in Jamaica is going to share his fortune with me. He emailed me today saying someone died and he needs me to help get the money out of the country.... so I can buy my own book ;)

Oh my gosh. You are AWESOME! :) Now THAT'S dedication to your readers.

Your son is too funny!

Can I make a suggestion for *next* time?? (I haven't read through comments on the other posts, so forgive me if it's already been suggested)... perhaps c/p all the comments into a word doc, then cutting, or typing the names then cutting???

i don't know. Just a thought. You ARE dedicated though. I'm duly impressed.

Now THAT is true dedication. I'm Sally Fielding it right now.

I'm satisfied. I would have liked to see you break the 200 mark but this will do. You get a pass since you asked Ethan to pick it.

Hahaaaa you so hate me right now don't you. :D

Out of kindness I didn't comment last post. One less name to write! (I deserve a prize for that, right?)

My hand hurts just looking at all that!! WOW!

Paige- The reason I wrote them out by hand was because it was a deal I made with Kathy (one of the authors of the book). in order to get another book to give away.

Omg, you're insane. lol. Bring over some bean dip, I've got an ice pack.

OMG, how cute is your son? Answer: so, so cute! :-)

I SAW MY NAME ON THE LIST.........GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw my name too! Exactly how many names did you write?

I saw my name!!! It's right there in front! Squeee!

That is almost as good as winning the prize!

Congrarulations to Procrastamom!

Thanks for including me! I see my name! I am a ROCK STAR OF TEH INTARWEBZ!!

Aw, I love how happy he looks for picking the winner. And! I see my name! That just made my day.

I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who got all kinds of excited when I saw my name in Y's handwriting!

Aww! I found me! LOL. Super fun.

I missed it, because...well that's a story of it's own do you think you could just write me name and take a picture so I can feel all famous and mushy like those other gals?

or even my name.....it's been a very long day.

I see me! I see me!

Holy crap, I am easily amused.

:(

I don't see my name. Waahhhh.

So sad.

wow woman!!!!

I saw my name!

Thanks for doing ALL that writing!

Next time you can enter numbers instead of names, draw a number & count down the comments to the winning number. Also there must be a random number generator on the net - tell them you want a random number between 1 and 187 (or whatever) and have the computer pick the number. If you have the guts to have another contest.......

Pioneer Woman is having a photo naming contest - as of last night there were over 1600 entries!

Major suckage. I don't see my name anywhere. Good that he didn't draw out "Pachina", though. I'd have had to demand volume on the video so I could hear you 'splain that away!

Aw, man, I missed the second book giveaway.

But my webbed toes made the list of favourite random facts so, all in all, it's a good day in a "I'm a Circus Freak" sort of way.

PS: I like your blog.

Oh my God! What a stupid time to decide to give the internet a break and actually do some work at my job! I frickin missed this!!! I haven't looked at mah blogz for a day and a half (yes I hyperventilated a little).

Thanks Y, you rock!

Heh your son really got into his job - he's got the thumbs thing going too.
