Another hypothetical fattening prize

That's right, you could be the next recipient of a famous (though as yet, hypothetical) "flabbergasted" doughnut or cup of coffee. Just present incontrovertible proof that you were the 3,000 visitor (or the closest one to that beautiful number) to our blog.

  1. "Hypothetical" is right. Did Dr. Noland at least get his doughnut?

  2. So yeah, we're gonna institute a don't-ask-don't-tell policy regarding all doughnuts and otherwise aforesaid prizes, especially the redemption and/or payment thereof.

  3. Kaleb, you should make a goal concerning your blog. How about: 5000 visits before the end of the school year. Just a thought.

  4. Dude, you're going by Swedey now? I was kind of weirded out when I first saw it. I think we can totally hit 5 Gs before May. We just have to keep posting so that you guys have some reason to come. We'll see how that goes.

  5. Well, somebody made it to 3000, and it wasn't me. But they didn't leave a comment, so how 'bout i claim the hypothetical prize at 3010?

  6. Thank you, MPK. No, I did not get my crummy doughnut. But I do have the 3000 mark prize. That is, unless MPK took a picture of her screen with her camera phone with the same number. Also, I take great pride in the fact that I artificially inflated the number of hits by at least 18 with my rapid-fire "reload" button. And I added a few more just to be the lone winner (insert evil laugh).

    PS For some crazy reason, Blogspot doesn't like postings from a Mac.

  7. Hey, nice try Christian! But don't fret - I doubt you'd get a doughnut anyway. Your friends are all talk.

  8. Those who have been under the Omnibusian tutelage of the Rev. David Bryant will know what it is to promise a hypothetical doughnut(s). The aforementioned pastor/omnibus teacher would promise these doughnuts but hold off on fulfilling the promise until a Christmas/end of the year party (more likely an end of the year party). He did this at least once. I'm telling you, it's all in the technicalities people.

  9. I am not going by Swedey now, I was just doing that for the fun of it. half-hearted laugh...Anyways, you will definately hit 5000 if your Dad hits the rapid reload button everyday for a couple times.

  10. Concerning Rob and his "technicalities"--
    I don't think Kaleb is going to get out of this one that easy, with some Mr. Bryant excuse. On his own blog he said:
    "If you [the winner] are in Pensacola/Milton, I will buy you a doughnut at Milton Bakery COME CHRISTMASTIDE." He set a date and has already missed the time window. He therefore must place his only hope in groveling at Dr. Noland's feet begging for forgiveness and an extension.

  11. Oh, mpk. You missed the most obvious technicality of all. Did I specify which Christmastide? Exactly. I can wait till I'm old and grey to pay Dr. N back, as long as it's during the Advent season. The Rev Bryant would be proud.

    And if my only hope was in groveling at Dr. N's feet, I'd be in serious trouble. Those feet are 3000 miles away.
