100 Things 100 Readers 100 Comments $100

I am a little late in acknowledging my 100th post milestone. Better late than never, they say. In honor of this achievement I am having a contest. If you want to win $100.00 try this on for size:

1. Subscribe to me in your reader. For the contest to work my goal is to gain 100 readers by the deadline. If I do not have 100 readers by the drop dead date, no money.

2. Comment on this post. For the money to be given away I need 100 comments by the deadline.

Some of you might be saying to yourselves, "She is bribing us", "She is buying us". Yes, some may look at it like that. Others might say "Who cares, I could use 100 bucks!".

Since I am a conformist and do what everyone else does, I will add 100 random things about me for your amusement. Enjoy.
