[QUOTE="hiho, post: 1047478, member: 21869"]Who, me? Sorry for the delayed response, between putting up the Christmas tree, a 16 hour adventure when my wife supervises, and fixing my son's laptop (new hard drive), also a 16-hour process to restore all of his old files, I have had precious little free time lately. I won't even mention the piles of leaves that need to be bagged [U]before[/U] it snows. Back to the contest, the best I have seen here in quite some time. I never thought I would win but honestly thought I might make top 5. Here were my picks... 1) [B][U]Siggi Palma[/U][/B] Fantastic Photoshop skills, and I am pretty good myself. I once put my bosses face on a can of Chef Boyardee spaghetti and printed it out in color, lifesize on nice paper. It hangs on his refrigerator and makes him laugh everyday. I also made him the Pope, as seen here... [IMG]http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j181/hihoaudio/petethepope.jpg[/IMG] Fortunately my boss has a good sense of humor. Siggi's photo of himself with Jack and Robert Kennedy was worthy of an award. It made me smile. 2) [B][U]Texmech[/U][/B] Funniest post on the thread. 3) [B][U]Race Bannon[/U][/B] Coolest post #1. I really thought that this was the winner. 4) [B][U]JallenGomez[/U][/B] Second coolest post. I really thought that this was the winner too. At the very least we have a man, who obviously loves his coins like the rest of us, who also appreciates the fact that time spent with your son (or sons) is a window open for only the shortest time before they grow up and become men. Very smart! 5) [B][U]Dok U Mint[/U][/B] Always clever, never boring. Possible 200+ IQ. 6) [B][U]Lucyray[/U][/B] Best fish. A million thanks to [B][U]ikandiggit[/U][/B] for both an interesting contest and for some of the best prizes I have ever seen here on CoinTalk. I collect both US and Canadian and my supervisor at work is also Canadian friendly with almost a complete Newfoundland collection, so nothing will go unappreciated. And I still love paper money. I promise a similar contest next year this time. And you can hold me to that. And if I didn't mention your name here sorry, I'll get you in 2011! [SIZE=4]HiHo :D[/SIZE][/QUOTE]
