YellowDay Giveaway

Category

As other people are giving away stuff for Yellowday why not me.  So here it is, I will give this one of a kind R5 beanie bear to the person that can post the best reason on why they should get it.  This bear has a hand stitched R5 Logo (Mum you say I keep too much stuff anyway so don't be mad I'm giving it away), and is about 6 inches tall, perfect to sit on top of a screen or some where else on your desk.

Gravatar Image1 - My son would love it, he love stuffed animals (despite the fact that he just turned 8). And what better way to get him indoctrinated this young? Emoticon

Gravatar Image2 - @1 Oh God, some of these are going make me feel like crying, I can see it coming.

Gravatar Image3 - This may sound sad or funny, depending on the view, but your bear would sit nicely between the dom.doc monkey, the buzzing IBM bee, the IBM racoon(emea, go figure), and some other misc. similar ones, oh and the yellow "tux" with linux on his tummy.
or the Kstation, whatever it was, wait a panda bear maybe?

Gravatar Image4 - I'm prepared to offer an exchange for a mouse from Bagpuss..{ Link } heeeeve ! heeeeve!

Hang on - does it smell of dog?


Gravatar Image5 - How 'bout:

"Because it's my birthday, and I wants it my precious??"


Gravatar Image6 - Zen has volunteered to play the roll of "Mr Owl - the wise old bird from the Tootsie Roll commercials". In this capacity, Zen promised to give empirical data as to how many chews vs head shakes it takes to spill the beans.

Gravatar Image7 - I believe I should have it because I think it will be precisely the type of irrational thing that may convince some of our 4.5/4.6 customers to at least upgrade to R5. Please ship it to 1701 Barrett Lakes Blvd, Suite 400, Kennesaw, GA 30144.

Gravatar Image8 - I can't belive your giveing this one off bear away. I think I should be on the panel as to who get's the bear. As i put all the work into him Mum XX for the bear.Emoticon

Gravatar Image9 - Men crying over a stuffed bear. Must be all that rain.


Gravatar Image10 - You should send me that bear. It would be a great influence on the other teddy bears I have at home. They aren't very tech-savvy and just stare out the window all day - I bet they're secretly Sharepoint devs.

Gravatar Image11 - Blogmonkey wants the bear.

Blogmonkey needs the bear,

I promise pictures of the hilarious results


Gravatar Image12 - @8 OK Mum, you are now the official judge.

Gravatar Image13 - What's the closing dates for entriesEmoticon

Gravatar Image14 - @13 Let's make it August 18th

Gravatar Image15 - @3 We need to see pictures of the existing family...

@4 Will the mouse fix it? No Dog smell, it has only been eaten and passed 5 times and washed after each visit.

@6 Ouch

@7 Too presumptive maybe Emoticon

@9 Just cos Arabs eat bears and babies for breakfast!

@10 burn them at the stake! or see if they can swim, if they can swim them bears are SP devs, if they sink and drown they were obviously OK.

@11 My Mum doesn't know who blogmonkey is...




Gravatar Image16 - I have an extensive collection of bears. I can't tell you how many I have. I lost count years ago. It started when I was in college with one gift bear, and it just kind of kept going. Some might think it got out of control. I think it's just right.

The bears in my house range from smaller than your R5 bear up to a near life-sized panda. They include expensive Steiff bears, less expensive every-day bears, jointed bears, plush bears, carnival prize bears and rescued bears. Not to mention bear art (including a Yogi and BooBoo cel) and bear figurines.

My license plate is BEARCA. It's New Hampshire, and we don't need that final "R"! It is BEARCA because when I was first dating my wife, her year-old daughter called my house the "bear house" because so many bears lived there. She called me "bear" because I lived in the bear house, and she needed something to call me. She called my car "bear car" either because it was mine, or because of the bumper sticker with dancing bears on it, and so I obtained the license plate at next opportunity.

That one-year-old daughter became my daughter when I married her mom and filed formal adoption papers. She is now about to be 18 and will go off in just a few weeks for her first year of college. I can think of nothing better that this bear can be than my gift to her.

I will give her the R5 bear as a present for her dorm room. He will serve to remind her of her dad while she is away. He will guard her MacBook Pro when it is not with her in classes, and he will protect her from all the things that bears protect little girls from. (Even though she is in fact no longer little, it's all the same to a bear.) And when they come home to visit, he will have plenty of friend bears to play with in the bear house.

Gravatar Image17 - @16 Oh My, your first half of that comment was describing the spare bedroom in my parents house. With the right kind of thunder storm and lightning, it can be a very scary room to walk into...

Gravatar Image18 - @17 Then your Mum should recognize me as a kindred spirit, who will be sure to give R5 bear a good home. And as my bribe, I promise a donation in the name of Carl's Mum to the Good Bears of the World ({ Link }

Gravatar Image19 - @18 You better watch out, she'll be coming to visit if you're not careful Emoticon

Gravatar Image20 - Hi Carl's Mum, I think it should be given to Ms Morris as a love token from Carl to positively influence and expedite the inevitable marriage of the couple Emoticon . Whilst I do realise that Ms Morris would be more influenced by a 2 carat diamond Emoticon, it would at least be a start in the right direction Emoticon

Gravatar Image21 - @20 You think that's funny Ricey! Hopefully my Mum will not put 2 and 2 together to figure out who Ms Morris is.

Gravatar Image22 - Oh I Know who Ms Morris is - All northern girls are niceEmoticon I'm still waiting for a visit from her.Emoticon

Gravatar Image23 - The result is in.
After careful consideration of all the entries I have to award the bear to Bearman (Richard Schwartz). I hope the bear along with his daughter will receive a high class education at college and be prepared for the big wide open World. GO R5 BEAR - be a brave bear now and behave yourself at college.
