It’s Tuesday morning and, like we promised, we held our drawing and we have three winners (we couldn’t find our Blaze The Balloon-Blowing Goat hat– we have a tendency to clean up from time to time and accidentally “hide” things on ourselves– so we downloaded a Random Number Generator from an Australian human resources website. We assigned a number to each entrant, inserted the high and the low into the RNG and POOF– we got our three winners!)
Here are the winners:
Tommy Fusco, Los Angeles, CA
Jerry (AKA Comedy King), Chenango Bridge, NY
Jouni Kallio, Jyvaskyla, Finland
Congratulations to all our winners!
Note to Mr. (or Mrs.?) Kallio: We’ll be using USPS Global Priority Mail to send your CD to Finland, but we’re not confident that it’ll ship without a hitch (customs and all that), so hang in there.
Note to comedians performing in Finland: Expect “Git ‘r done!” to sweep the Finnish comedy clubs! (Or perhaps a variation, “Git ‘r Finnish!” would be more appropriate!) Either one is likely, especially when one considers that the Finnish national drink, Koskenkorva (also known as Koskenkorvan Viina), is 38 per cent alcohol! To wit:
In the begining Koskenkorvan Viina was made only from potatos by distillation and sometimes from a potato-grain mixture, but nowadays the raw material is plain Finnish barley. Koskenkorvan Viina is distilled in southern Pohjanmaa, near Ilmajoki, Koskenkorva’s population center and is bottled in Primalco’s factory in Rajamäki.
Note to Jerry, AKA “Comedy King”: Is that you, Mr. Lewis? (It makes sense, really.)
