Winner! Winner!! The Underground Gives Stuff Away

by Tom Chandler on March 30, 2008 · 2 comments

If it’s one thing the Underground’s all about, it’s our committment to delivering better than you puffs deserve lots of free stuff.

Kerplunk by McManusAfter I put an extremely valuable well, free copy of Patrick McManus’ Kerplunk! on the line, we spared no expense in our search for a cheap and easy unimpeachably fair method of determining a winner.

Once again, I ended up at Random.org — the free online random number generator which costs nothing uses atmospheric noise to generate truly random integers (a rarity in the computer world).

I carefully removed the duplicate posts, fired up Random.org, and picked the comment posted by Alert Underground Freeloader Reader Mad Dog.

[sfx: crowd going wild, confetti being thrown, Hooters Girls running on stage, ballons popping, yadda yadda...]

And that’s not all:

Final “Has the Recession/Gas Prices Affected Your Fishing Plans” Poll Numbers:

Yes – 77
No – 111

There you are. Free literature and quality public polling data. Clearly, it’s Pulitzer Year at the Underground, baby. A Pulitzer.

Hooray for TC,

The Mad Dog says thanks…

Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach a person to use the Internet and they won’t bother you for weeks.

At least nobody’s screaming “fix” this time. That’s an improvement.
