Once upon a time I got talked into buying a longboard. I mentioned it once on this blog, right here. Long story short: I only bought the dang thing because this loser I knew talked me into it. I never liked boarding anyway and now everytime I look at it I remember the kind of low-life people I once associated with. Besides which, I hate all things to do with sports or sporting. All the board does now is sit in a corner collecting dust. Such a waste. And I really hate it. So, the longboard needs to go.
And who better to give it to than you, my lovely readers? Here's the deal. If you want to win this exact longboard, just leave a comment on this post. It doesn't even have to be a good comment. It doesn't even have to be relevant, you can just say hi for all I care (just make sure you leave at least a first name). Seven days from now I will close the comments. Then I'll use a number generator to randomly select the winning comment and boom, there you have it. If you live far away I'll even pay to ship it to you (I really want this thing GONE, in case you couldn't tell).
What are you waiting for? You don't longboard, you say? Good grief, then sell it on Ebay, duh. Or give it to someone you like (or don't like) as a present. Or chop it up and use it for kindling, as I was planning to do.
Ready, set, go.
PS: You can only comment once. Sorry.
18 bits of feedback:
Really, Lorena? Why don't you just give it to Scott? That's what I'm going to do with it if I accidentally win. Mostly I just wanted to comment.
Hi, for all I care. (That's what I was supposed to say, right?)
My athletic, skateboarding son would love this longboard, and probably ride it with much less bruises, scrapes and head injuries than you got. :-)
But I sort of gather there's some bad karma attached to this longboard for you. And that's got to be an interesting story in and of itself.
First of all, I would like to say that I think Mike deserves this longboard. Because he has a kid. And getting things for your kid is always better than getting them for yourself.
Also, that I think your dad might like this longboard. He was riding it around like a 13 year old in Burley if I remember correctly.
But I'm entering. Because you told me to. And I'm afraid of what will happen to me if I disobey.
Lorena, you're supposed to say you're gonna split the longboard into pieces and give each piece to a select few, than I would pipe in and say how I care too much about the longboard to be cut into pieces and to give it away to someone deserving..that way you would see that I am the TRUE and rightful owner of said longboard.
I have been exhorted to enter this contest. I already have a lnogboard that i don't use as often as i should but whats a contest with only 4 entrants right?

I'll put in for it. I once got ticketed for longboarding on a date. (By the police) I think if I owned one I might try to be arrested this time.
I want. I want!! Sisters get first dibs!!
:) Hello, Lorena. When Becca called to tell me about this free longboard, I went from sounding extremely bored and tired to sounding like a ten-year-old in a candy shop with a sign in the front window saying: Going Out of Business, All Inventory Free. So you should just give the longboard to me.

This comment is actually my third (I deleted the second one). However, it is not for me.
Dad: "Hey LoLo, can I have your rockin' longboard? Riding on it would be far out! I would just trip if I win the drawing!"
Instead of a long board, can I win a romantic evening alone with you...maybe some wine glasses with crangrape?
Love,
Michelle
Lorena - you make me smile! I'm leaving this comment, because not only do I like free stuff...but this would be an AWESOME prize to use in TaVaci as an incentive on Ticket Day. =] Thanks for the chance!! Jill

This is Trev. Michelle told me to comment so Justin would have less of a chance to win.
I'm Nate.
It would save my feet from being sore in the Philippines. :)
I would love to. Win the longboard! I will decide if I win to either learn how to surf or sell it on craigslist and buy cases of wine.Thanks! Erin D
