Both winners own working motorcycles; there is no provision in your contest for those of us who are "bikeless." You are heartless. I was hoping to sell the $50 meal card and use the money as a downpayment on a new bike.<BR/>Disappointed in DowningtownBMW-Dickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17923099195434220681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6428154721977251894.post-57603891415764267722008-09-09T21:45:00.000-04:002008-09-09T21:45:00.000-04:00Dear Dave:Russian alimony payments are made in one...Dear Dave:<BR/><BR/>Russian alimony payments are made in one pound increments of flesh.

Something must have happened on the way to the UPS forum. It's either a liberal definition of "gift card", or a mix up of my package with a Russian alimony payment. The box I received contained a half-eaten box of crackers and a poorly written manuscript entitled, "Road Kill, Not Just For Breakfast". Maybe I'll mosey on down to the local soup kitchen, ...see if I can get something to go with these crackers.<BR/><BR/>(I'm kidding, of course. The card came as promised. Now all I have to do is locate the nearest "Chuckie Cheese") ;-)DChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03498134535687220175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6428154721977251894.post-15036238638853884842008-09-09T11:10:00.000-04:002008-09-09T11:10:00.000-04:00Why am I not surprised that the link for the conte...Why am I not surprised that the link for the contest 'rules' does not work?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
