“On, King! On you huskies!”

I am busier than a one-legged man in an arse-kicking contest these days, but I wanted to slap this up as a reminder that if you’re interested in entering Thrilling Days of Yesteryear’s Sergeant Preston of the Yukon Arctic Odyssey giveaway, you need to get an e-mail to me at igsjrotr(at)gmail(dot)com before the Friday February 3rd deadline of 11:59pm EST (just make sure you put “Sergeant Preston Giveaway” in the subject header).  As an added incentive, I managed to acquire an additional copy of this 8-CD set (thanks to the folks at Radio Spirits) so it’s almost like your chances of winning are doubled—but keep in mind I’m not a mathematician, so what do I know.  I’ll draw two winners via Random.org on Saturday morning and with all deliberate speed get their prizes out to them without a team of Huskies.

The winner of TDOY’s last giveaway, Ellen E., e-mailed me the other day to inform me that she was out of town at the time her name was called and was stranded in beautiful downtown Smyrna, GA without e-mail access.  Smyrna, if Google Maps is to be believed (and if you dismiss Atlanta traffic as a fiction…which you most assuredly cannot), is only 70 miles from Rancho Yesteryear…so if I had contacted her sooner she might have been able to stop by and say hi-dy.  But that’s as may be: a package containing her prize will soon be winging its way to her home environs in Louisiana (or as we say here at the Ranch, Loo-siana) next week.
