Hopefully tonight... I thought I would have a quiet couple of days but oops, wrong about that.

I do know the prizes are sitting in my office, however, waiting for shipment.

That depends on your perspective. If you are from Shongaloo, you may think it is the sprawling metropolis of Minden. Are you from that area?

The "Town of Minden" I speak of is in upstate New York, 50 miles west of Albany. I grew up there.

Mmm, I thought he may have headed for nearby No Man's Land! Just south and west of Shreveport/Bossier.

I was speaking of the town of Minden, Louisiana, which is about 30 minutes east of Looziana Downs.

Curious? Like you didn't tabulate every one's picks like five times.

About the prizes... Not about who won, I knew I won that day. It was not even close, I did not have to tabulate anything. I just wanted Travis to make it official, I cant declare myself the winner.
