I entered an online competition for a technology reviwer website called the Good Gear Guide here in Australia and the question was:

"If you travelled far back in time, and you could take only one item back in time with you, what would it be?"

My answer was "1.21 giggawatts"

And I came second! winning:

Maxtor 1TB external HDD
Netgear wireless HD media streaming unit for home theatre
and the fully licensed version of Adobe Photoshop Elements.



I am so happy! And this is just after I ordered my new computer system!

W00t!!! [thumbup]

Dunno, might find out eventually. I think the prize was a laptop, a phone and a copy of Asassin's Creed.

Wow! Some major prizes there! Congrats [thumbup]

Very nice, very nice. Never hurts to enter free contests and drawings. What have you got to lose?

My story: I entered an Adobe survey and won a 2GB iPod Nano. This was like 2-years ago. I sold it on Craigslist for retail price because I do not listen to music.

I do not listen to music.

You have no soul.

Where you just mocking around when you typed you answer and wasn't expecting to win?

I still remember when I was a little kid I used to be an *ss and purposely push buttons on the vending machines for no reason whatsoever. Than one day I pushed a button and ran off because people don't like it when you did that and I heard two clumps. I looked back and two cans of coke fell out of the vending machine. I was so happy[thumbup].

Dr. Emmett Brown: Marty, I'm sorry. But the only power source capable of generating 1.21 gigawatts of electricity is a bolt of lightning.
Marty McFly: [startled] What did you say?
Dr. Emmett Brown: A bolt of lighting. Unfortunately, you never know when or where it's ever gonna strike.
Marty McFly: We do now.
