Snowball is in a contest...

So, I signed Snowball up for a photo contest.  It's Bissell's "Most Valuable Pet" Photo Content.  And you can vote for him by click any of the pictures below.

Here's the TinyURL to share with friends and family:

We did have some better pictures of Snowball, and I thought that I could change it after I uploaded it... but, apparently, you can't.  So, here are some below.  He also has a flickr photo set.

The weekly prize is a new vacuum, the Bissell's Pet Hair Eraser...  which is something we need as that our old vacuum isn't working anymore.  {sigh}

From all the weekly prize winners, a grand prize winner is picked.

Bissell's grand prize:

  1. Pet's photo placed on Pet Hair Eraser vacuum and package
  2. $10,000 Donation to Pet Cause of winner's choice!

If Snowball wins, the $10,000 donation will be given to the Capital Area Humane Society

And remember kids...  don't forget to control the pet population be getting your pet's spayed or neutered.

Hey, here's something you can do...

...click on a link to support the fight against Breast Cancer.

Every year over 40,000 women die from breast cancer... one in eight women either has or will develop breast cancer if their lifetime.

If detected early, survival rate is increased dramatically. So, the reason for this post is that I committed to telling at least 10 people, at least once a month. The goal is to continue doing this until I run The Columbus Race for the Cure in 2008.

So, Please tell ten friends to tell ten today!


The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman.

It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on "donating a mammogram" for free (pink window in the middle).

This doesn't cost you a thing.
Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising.

Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know.


If you're curious as to whether this is really spam or not... check out this site for more background information: http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/charity/mammogram.asp
