Simone's Thoughts - I have often times thought about completely getting rid of my desktop, but I just love my monitor size for my photo editing too much. That being said, I desperately need a new desktop, as mine has just been limping along for the past couple years. This is for a laptop, but maybe I could sell it and get a desktop.
Thoughts on the ever changing nature of our planet, the effects we are having on it, and examinations of all things science.

Simone's Thoughts - While I really don't care for NFL, I love college football season. Can't wait for my Horns to dissapoint me again, or maybe they will throw a curve ball and actually play to their abilities or beyond, who knows. Its still fun to watch and I would have a hard time giving this trip up if we won.

Simone's Thoughts - This sweep is a no go for us as we would have to pay for Max's airfare, plus there is little possibility we could get this amount of time off. For those who can though, it would be a trip of a lifetime. Plus the taxes are paid, so this trip is a true win-win.

Entry Frequency - 1x per person/email
Simone's Thoughts - I find it sad that tribal tattoos are so the norm now that they have become the epitome of 'poser', but if you really have the belief, then you might be able to honestly pull it off. This car screams 'small penis' to me, but it still is a Camaro. I would be praying that I could talk them into a cash option, but if not, it shouldn't be too hard to sell in my college town.

End Date - September 15, 2010
Entry Frequency - 1x per person
Simone's Thoughts - This one is a little confusing as it doesn't really specify in the official rules whether the boat is used. But it is a 2008, so I can only assume that Billabong has been using it as their promo boat and trailering it around the country - who knows how many actual running hours it has. Still its a boat and I figure I could always renege on the prize if I find out it is ratty and in horrible condition.
