[Last chance to enter The Contest. Post your entries by midnight tonight, Pacific Standard Time, and we’ll put up a poll this weekend to determine the wiener. –Bunk]

[UPDATE: THE CONTEST ENTRY WINDOW IS NOW CLOSED. Voting shall commence this weekend. Film at 11. –Bunk]

I want to thank all you folks who helped reseat the header beam over the stairs to the basement last Saturday night. When I went downstairs to bring up a fresh keg, the floor and wall were throbbing to the music, and not in a good way.

Coulda been very dangerous, so we reseated the header and installed drag straps and hold downs. We’ve moved the main sound system to the basement, and  installed a bar down there as well. We’re thinking of installing a dumbwaiter for nachos and poutines. Oh, yeah, there’s a new potty room right behind the bar counter.

Not pointing fingers at all, stuff like this happens. After all it’s an old house that was never designed for an Overnight Open Thread.

A Call for Entrees

[Note: this is NOT an Overnight Open Thread.]

After a lot of head scratching, tooth grinding and butt itching, we’ve decided to conduct a joke contest.

This is a competition for all loyal Blogmocats. There is a nice award to be had at no cost to you, but we can’t tell you what it is. All we can say is you’ll like it, because the winner gets to choose from a wide variety of awesome prizes (and that’s a big ‘ol honkin’ hint right there.)

Here’s the deal:

Submit your best one-line joke in the comments on this thread.

Originality is a definite plus, so claim credit; but if it’s not yours, at least quote the source. Post your best one-liner here, on this thread, and the admins will pick their favorites for a greatest hits poll vote next week.

Keep it clean. –Bunk

[Update 27 September: The prize is being sponsored by CafePress, and as part of the deal, we agreed to post this advert:

You can find millions of personalized gifts, hooded sweatshirts and 2011 wall calendars at CafePress – for any topic, interest or brand!

So there you go. The wiener gets to choose their own prize up to $30!]

[UPDATE: SUBMISSIONS ARE NOW CLOSED. CONTENDERS SHALL BE ANNOUNCED SHORTLY! BAIT WITH WEIGHTED BREATH!]
