I think I may be the Hardee's Burger Slayer for October 2006!

If you go to burgerslayer.hardees.com, you'll note that the picture labeled "Burger Slayer of the Month: October, 2006" is my picture. I've been checking the website periodically since the end of the month to see if any updates have been posted. Until yesterday, that spot for the October winner was blank, but now it's got my picture in it. I was actually out geocaching with yarbiedoll last night when I got a call from my parents to let me know that I won. It was really cool.

Now, I'm not counting my chickens before they're hatched, because I haven't been notified by Hardee's that I'm the winner. I sent them an e-mail earlier today to ask what I needed to do to claim my prize -- I hope they get in touch with me about it soon. I guess I should start deciding how I'll answer the Burger Slayer questions that they're going to ask me for my bio.

So here's a big "thank you" to all of you for helping me achieve this honor, with a special thanks to yarbiedoll for noticing the contest and snapping the picture. I wouldn't have had a chance without all of your help. If you want a position in my benevolent Burger Slaying regime, let me know and I'll see what we can work out. First, I'm going to have to see if I can use my new position to get rid of DST.

Let's celebrate by going to Hardee's!
