WINNERS of 44th Birthday Sweepstakes!!

These are the hands of the Man!

They are the fierce hands of the man trained in hand-to-hand combat.

They are the mighty hands of Lt. Commander By, The Black Rambo!

By can knock a fool out cold with a single sucker punch... then pick him up, and knock him out again!

And he can also pull the names of the winners of the 44th sweepstakes, which is more important than hand-to-hand military combat.

So Mrs. By clipped his nails and moisturized his hands up extra special for the drawing. She knows us ladies don't like no rusty ashy man. Thanks Mrs. By!

Here are the names of the commenters.

276 entries. That's a whole lot, a world record of sorts. Well, it's a lot because the sweepstakes was extended due to the bad weather.

I cut those pages up into strips.

I shuffled the strips and cut the individual entries up. And I placed them in a cup. And I placed that cup in the hands of Lt. Commander By!

We decided the cup was too small for the entries.

So we threw the names in a bag.

By shook up the bag, and commenced to pulling names...

And the winners are:

Dorothy!!

Honey, your second comment on "Snow Jam 2014... ATLien style" on January 29th won you a $44 gift card!  Go girl!!

And since the contest ran long, I mentioned there would be a drawing for a second winner!

And the second winner is:

Moe!!!

Girl, your comment made on the February post "Celebrating Black History" made you some money, honey! A $44 gift card, just for YOU!

And here's By doing what he does best... verifying the winners by writing their prize on the back.

Now on to the prize for winner of the most comments over the Birthday Sweepstakes time period.

There were 5 of you in the running...

And here's the tally.



As you can see, the winner is Sasha!

It was close, wasn't it?  Shai needed 3 more comments to win.  But Sasha wasn't having it!

Congratulations, Sasha! You win a $44 gift card.
