Ahem,Dear fellow PYNG "First FAST-1 Mass Production Order" Contestants As Jack has just pointed out the "conditions" for the contest are very clearly spelled out in my previous message and to be fair "all" participants must abide by both the "format" and the "spread" in order to win the prize [ and some of our very deeply respected 'would be' contestants have erred on both counts]. That said, you should know that "winning" means sharing a table at one of Montreal's finer restaurants with u-no-who! For the record, a few of my associates have made the following rather rude remarks about me, some of which relate to "dining" habits: a) tends to eat and drink way to much [ known to belch loudly], b) tends to drone on and on ... especially about things like PYNG's Progress, c) has been known to slurp hot coffee or tea, d) gets snarlly if the service leaves something to be desired, e) is definitely "NOT thin" and has only worn a wig at very infrequent "costume" parties although the hairline is receding, f) tends to go to sleep if the "company" is male and somewhat boring g) has been described as a "handsome hell of a man" by a somewhat feisty grandmother before she finally had her eyes checked out and bought some glasses .....about 20 years ago I hope the above in no way diminishes any contestant's desire to win this contest. However, to try and spice things up a bit I have just thought of a neat way to improve the contest. By now, PYNG should be very aware of how many of us are rooting for the company on a daily basis. Would it be to much to ask that PYNG be a corporate sponsor for a "second" prize for the contest. By this I mean a prize which would go to the winner "in addition to" having a glorious feast at my expense. Perhaps PYNG could kick in say a 1999 Mercedes .... or if budget does not permit such extravegance .... a 1999 Toyota Tercel ...Still to much???....then how about a "mass produced" F.A.S.T.-1 mounted on a suitable plaque with verbege something like: "Presented by Mike Jacobs President and CEO of PYNG to ____________ the winner of the 1999 PYNG F.A.S.T.-1 "First Mass Production Order" Contest. It seems that when our "contests" hit the forum we see fewer and fewer posts from PYNG management. I hope the above will encourage a more relaxed atmosphere AND that PYNG chooses to accept our invitation to join in the fun. Just another thought, LOR Long Time FAST-1 supporter
