Well under normal circumstances I'd say......"dude, you stole my thread...." But since you're offering better prizes and apparently less controversial than a cat dipped in any hot substance...you got it.

I kind would like to win that picture of ME though.....hmmmmmmm

I could through in a picture of me (myself...not to be confused with the proper noun..ie Kev's ME) getting out of a pool, but it my be easily confused with one of those right whales grounding itself. When I go to the beach children frequently yell.."throw water on him and call Sea World" when they see me lying there....

[8D] Oh Dan - send the Mookie a picture! She just loves Sea World! Besides, I am collecting them.

And you will also get a 8" X 10" Picture of my Girlfirend in her Bikini gettting out of the pool, yes it's autographed.

i'd love to offer that to you, BUT it won't fly, at least i don't think it will, but hey i'll ask.. it costs nothing to try.
