THANK YOU!!!! ( & Whoo Hooo, Some unbelievable luck!!!!!)
I think I need to thank someone on here for entering my name in a free computer drawing, I think.
Apparently someone on here, or maybe some other person on the net entered my name to win a free computer to help me with my college work. Because last night when we got home from Billings, MT I found a large box sitting on my front porch, delivered via UPS. There was a letter attached to the box that read as follows: CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Mr Edwards, your name was submitted on-line to us ( Compaq ) to be entered in a free drawing for one of the new computer's we are giving away this holiday season, for educational purposes. And in our recent drawing your name was drawn to WIN!! You are now the proud owner of a new Compaq Presario. The following person(s) submitted your name and a short letter telling why you should be considered for this gift. You can thank ____(A_fellow_CHIEFS_Fan)_____ for your new computer from Compaq. Congratulations & good luck in pursuing your education. So to whomever submitted my name, THANK YOU. This Christmas season has renewed my faith in my fellow man. Between this and a few other things I have received this year from other members here on CHIEFS PLANET, who wish to remain unmentioned by name, this is truly a wonderful Christmas. THANK YOU ALL, AND MERRY CHRISTMAS. ALL of you will be in our prayers & thanks for a long time. And may the joy you have given to me & my family be repaid to you & yours many times over. |

It wasn't me, but that's awesome. :D There are some pretty great people in the ChiefsPlanet clique. ;)
|
You guys can argue over which one of you is the homoerotic film icon, but I'm the one who helped JOhn out ...
... at least until someone else shows up to take the credit. |

Wow. Merry Christmas JOhn... What a great story.
Very happy for you. |

fwiw, never admitted to being a spelling ace. :shake: Fixed, happy? ;) |
Your welcome, JOhn, you have been a good boy this year, Santa was happy he could give .......
Happy Holidays, Santa . |
I don't know who entered his name, but I work at Compaq and rigged the results. So please send all praise my direction. ;)
|
Whoever did it, I really wish you would contact me, so I can personally thank you. :thumb:
But if you wish to remain anonymous, I can respect that. I'm still blown away that someone would do this, and really am at a loss for words other than THANK YOU!!!!! |

Just teasing ya, bud. You have to admit, that was pretty funny. Congratulations, BTW!! :) |
JOhn - True gifts never have names. Be happy.
And to whomever did this thing, God bless you and yours. |

But being human, I think, always will wonder who it was. But I will not let the uncertainty distract from my heartfelt thanks, and joy. |
Good things happen to good people John. :thumb: I hope you and your family have a great Christmas.
|
That is pretty awesome. :)
Happy Holidays! |
Congratulations JOhn...couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
Class act by the culprit too. A shining example of the CHRISTmas spirit. |
To whoever it was that did this for JOhn:
Please enter my name in the "sex with Heidi Klumm" drawing. Thank you! Seriously though, awesome story. Merry Christmas to you and whoever did it. |
I'm thinking back about all the things I've used JOhn's name for, but I don't remember the computer drawing. I've used his name for Viagra purchases, internet porn registrations, price inquiries on cell phone plans, my purchase of a manhood enhancer pump, my OrangeMane account, and illegal software purchase sites, but I don't remember a computer drawing.

Didnt presarios hit the market about 6 years ago? You're gonna burn things up with 12 megs of RAM and that pentium clone with Windows 98. Go get em tiger!
:hmmm: :harumph: ok, I'm jealous as hell |
Congrats! That's awesome. Merry Christmas, JOhn...
And God Bless whoever was responsible. :thumb: |

Congrats on the new computer, that is great!
I didn't have anything to do with it but I did want you to know I entered you in the Trojan Used Condom drawing. Hopefully you win that one also. |
Maybe Compaq selected your name after watching the Chiefs game on Saturday and figured you'd need something to do in the offseason if the defense doesn't pull its collective head out of it arse. :shrug:

They work great, but it's mostly just swelling.

One thing we all know is that Brad Caudle is not responsible.:p

Whoever did it must know your address since they knew where to deliver it.

Yea, there's about 20 or so that do. :hmmm: But as Russ suggested, I will not inquire, I'll let them contact me if they wish. Or remain anonymous if that is their desire. Just wanted to know that I won it, and a BIG THANKS. :thumb: |

This is way cool.
My money is on the Pastor. |
That's great JOhn. However, IF the new PC was sent for your educational purposes, you should probably refrain from using it to surf the Planet and stay with the old P3 system for this place.
:) BTW, now you can point out to Cowgirl that HER computer is the slow one.;):D |

So I called the EX and she said If I wanted to give it to her, that would be great as she has a monitor for it. Gonna do so more checking for a used 20gig HD for it, and try and get it set up for her to use. She has been wanting one for awhile, and considering she is an Honor roll student, and is in the High Achievement classes, I think she will put it to good use. And yea, B has already tried to snag it. :grr: But this is just so fantastic, I really am still floored by the whole thing. It's gonna be great, as I have one course I'm taking over the net next semester, and I can sure use it for my Composition course also, without fear of lossing my work due to a system crash that has happened before. :banghead: |
So JOhn, will the video card in this new 'Puter handle all the air combat games you play when you're supposed to be studying? :)
|
Congratulations, JOhn. That's awesome. :thumb:

What a great story.
Congrats. And w/o reading through this whole thread---has santa's elf fessed up yet? |

Yeah right. This is JOhn we are talking about. You know, the guy that types like TK talks. Do you have any idea how illegible his typing would be if he had been drinking enough to forget entering a contest like this? :fire: |

So true. |

Is it just me, or has Papa been hanging with TK long enough that he's now not making sense? :shrug: |

BTW, has your faith in fellow man been restored lately? |
