    That is some great swag indeed! Thanks to Shawn for hosting this awesome contest. I hope it becomes an annual event. It brings great exposure to all the blogs involved.

    It also gave me an excuse to bother my family and friends about my blog. :-)

    I really enjoyed reading all the other posts. I now have new fresh blogs to read in feed reader.

    Thanks!
