e on Video: The November Contest Winner & the December Contest Prize Revealed
Hello my dear friends -I thought I would take advantage of my beautiful Island-like vacation surroundings and conduct the drawing for the November contest winner on video. (Something about doing it from my condo once I'm back to cold, dreary Chicago didn't seem quite as fun.) I didn't venture too close to the camera because I'm giving Kate a running for the nickname of "Freckles" right about now.

The October Contest is Here! (But Maybe I'M the One Who Needs a LOST Calendar?)

Congrats to the September Contest Winners... See, the Numbers AREN'T Always Bad!
A few weeks ago I posted a contest based purely on luck. Those whose comments landed in positions 4, 8, 15, 16, 23 and 42 would win a set of Dharma Beer koozies -- all they had to do was list their favorite Lost character.Here are the lucky winners:4. Dolce, wh
