I am trying to visit the Maker's Mark distillery tomorrow as I head toward Nashville to speak later this week. If I am able to make it there, I will be purchasing two bottles of Kentucky bourbon whisky and hand dipping them myself. One bottle is mine because after all, AG gets her drink on from time to time and it's good for luring PhDs with southern accents into my world. The other bottle can be won by those 21 years of age and older and all the other legal risks that come with accepting and consuming alcoholic beverages. (Brandeis continues to reduce my chances of y'all taking my land in a court case!)
Here's the contest deal: I have been asked to play a critical role in the bioethics debate currently ongoing in Washington and across this great nation. I will be writing about the reproductive debate in and how it has been shaped politically, what this means for women, and what the true results are now and in the future. I will need a blog title and slogan. The best title and slogan will win the Maker's Mark. Get witty, get crazy, and take no prisoners!
The rules:
1. You may enter as many times as possible through 15 October 2009.
2. A winner will be determined by Brandeis and one of his Facebook friends, selected by him and approved by AG. (That means KPP is out.)
3. If you win, you must be 21 years of age or older, drink responsibility, and accept the gift of your own free will and legal responsibility once it has been placed in your hot little hands.
4. You must be willing to arrange for delivery of your gift. In other words, Fish should not enter unless he's willing to meet Chuckles or some other DC area blogger. AG will spare Mrs. Dr. Fish the divorce if he met AG. (Fish, still enter!)(AG is not as AG in person so do not be scared. I've been told of this by many and those who would say otherwise are RLAs who aren't worth the DNA excised for them.)
5. I don't want to hear about who hit who, who cheated by sleeping with the Rude Pundit for ideas (That's AG's employment for the month), or whatever crying games you dream up about who wins and who loses. Kindergarten rules will apply.
6. Internet traditions except for those noted in 5 apply liberally.
7. The submission must be your own original work.
8. Extra points will be granted to single, Jewish, doctors or doctorate contestants that are schtup worthy.
9. Extra points will be granted if #8's parents are deceased. (With all due respect given to those who have lost their parents, I have suffered enough with the in-law game over the course of this lifetime.) Goyim will be consider if they are easy on the eyes and witty. AG is looking at MdH!
10. Why are you still reading? Get your creative juices flowing.
11. Maker's Mark is not sponsoring this contest. They are welcome to do so, however.
