Comment Contest!
Alright, it seems a number of Blogathon participants are running contests, which is a cool idea! I think I’ll take that idea, repackage it and make it seem brand new… 
Introducing the Blogathon 2006 Second Mouse Comment Contest! That’s right, you can win just by commenting here! I’ve got a number of fabulous prizes to give away to winners in the following categories:
- Most [new] comments [overall] (spam will be baleeted, and won’t count toward totals)
This award goes to whoever (”whomever”? I can never remember which is used where) post the most new comments in my blog during the Blogathon (9am-9am Eastern, July 29th-30th). The winner in this category will receive a complete set (volumes 1-10) of Mickey Mouse Adventures! - Most thought-provoking comment
This winner will receive a copy of Walt Disney Treasures Vol. 1: 75 Years of Innovation! - Most unrelated comment
Um, this winner gets a postcard. Unless it’s my little sister, in which case she gets to see her nephew again.
I’ll pay the shipping (USPS Priority Mail) on all of that stuff. 
So how come I’ve got so many Disney comics books to give away? Well, I’m the Disney Comic Books Art Director at Gemstone Publishing, and these are my comp copies! That’s how much I love y’all. Or comments.

And just so you know, I’m not stamping the postcard.

[...] 1) Travis is having a huge comment party over at his blog. He’s got some great prizes! Go check it out! And I do not think he means the person with the most comments on that one post. I’m pretty sure he means overall. (= Comment Party!! [...]

Hey cool! A contest!
And what?!? I’d expect some sort of “cheese” prize for the person in second (Cheez-its! Cheez Whiz! …… mmmmm…. cheeeez whiz)

I’m giving away almost $100 in comics, and you want second-prizes?!?! The nerve!
I can tell from your recent comments, Josh, that you’re going after all three prizes (okay, maybe not #2)!
So I don’t see what you’re wanting more for…

Ha ha, I wasn’t going for all three on purpose! Honest!
And I’m just sayin….. with a blog name like “Second mouse gets the cheese”…. you’d think there’d be a cheesy prize!
Viva La Cheez Whiz!!!!!!

Yeah, yeah… I brought it on myself…
…but there’s plenty of mouse in my prizes! Maybe I’ll include a slice of cheese inside each book! Thanks for the tip, Josh!

[...] I wanted to get this done sooner, but I’ve been rather tied up… and it required some heavier analysis than I was able to provide at first. [...]
