Congrats to andy with:

Runner up to o2bncdg with:

“Wait!! We have stuff for the war effort too”

Honorable mention to kardinal with:

Local Man leaves Staples Office Supply with new bulky chairs, wondering how to get home. Was pleased to learn: “there’s a MRAP for that.”

And don’t forget you still have a little time to enter to win 2 tix to the Lissie concert at the 9:30 Club on Sunday.


Wow, it was a lot harder picking a winner than I thought.  Dr. Dog is playing Friday Jan. 28th and Saturday, Jan. 29th.  Tickets available for purchase here.

Congrats to subpolka who wrote that they wanted to go to the show:

“Because I’m having two cavities filled that morning and will spend the better part of my day in a state of numbed, drooling misery. Dr. Dog is the only thing that could conceivably ease my suffering.”

I feel your pain. Congrats please email me directly so I can get you +1 on the Will Call List.

Next 9:30 club ticket giveaway coming on Monday.

Congrats to C Money:

“Missed Connection: Red line, 5 PM. You were wearing a red coat and were quiet and motionless, yet clearly having a great time. I was the guy in the black jacket with a mischievous grin. E-mail me?”

Runner up to Epsom:

“Maybe it would make more sense to stand.”

Honorable mention to MSF:

“I never should have gotten talked into the full body botox treatment.”


Here’s the second of the many new features being announced this week. Like Pablo’s photography tips, this one was a no brainer.

Simply leave a comment about why you want to go to the show and I’ll pick the winner (+1) this Friday Jan. 21st.

And from last week while I was away – congrats to Eckingtonite. I don’t know the reference but it made me laugh:

“Come and live with me in peace and safety, away from all the Wangdoodles, and Hornswogglers, and Snozzwangers, and rotten, Vermicious Knids. Also, I have my left hand on your breast and you have not noticed.”

Runner up to MFJ with:

“Despite her smile and gracefully-staged dance move, Rita was desperately trying to free herself from the clutches of an OK Cupid first date going horribly wrong. “He didn’t look like a Harley Davidson-riding Willy Wonka in his profile pic,” she thought, “why do they always seem to want to show off their inner Oompa Loompa when they take me out in public?” And that’s precisely when she knew it wouldn’t last…”

Please email directly so I can get you your t-shirts.
