Photo-A-Day #789 06/06/07

I understand that today I uploaded a bunch of Peace Globes (one for each of my blogs) and my photo today is of a robot from a warring faction of an alien species. And on a day when we are posting messages about peace, why would I also post about a war. Well despite it all, I believe that the Autobots stand for peace, they always have. Optimus Prime stands for peace and he fights for that, “Freedom is the right of all sentient beings” is his motto. Yes I do believe that sometimes you do have to fight for peace when it is called for. But I’m not going to go get too political. Peace is the ultimate goal for today.

Well Thanks, Everyone!

That would be thanks to everyone who voted for me to win the coveted Feasting on Asphalt DVD set with Viewmaster accessory. I am very excited to have won. Christine was totally fair about everything too because she ended up giving away two prizes. One to me and one to the runner up Angie.

For anyone who was confused about what I ended up winning let me break it down for you. From the Food Network website.

Food Network store exclusive!

Alton Brown’s hit show is finally available on DVD! “Feasting On Asphalt” is where the rubber hits the road. Alton and crew take to the roads in pursuit of the best food finds and dining gems in the country. Join them as they strap on the chaps, jump on their bikes and travel the highways, byways, back roads and side streets of America searching for some of the best dishes to be had! This three disc set contains four episodes plus a special bonus disc with over two hours of never before seen footage! And as an added bonus, you’ll receive a free “Feasting on Asphalt” Viewmaster with the purchase of the Season One DVD! The viewmaster contains seven fun images of Alton’s culinary adventures from the show.

Free Viewmaster offer available for a limited time only, while supplies last.

Disc One:
Episode 1: The South Shall Fry Again
Episode 2: I Smell Pork

Disc Two:
Episode 3: High Plains Feaster Episode 4: California or Bust

Disc Three:
Bonus footage and commentary from Alton

I certainly hope I get the free Viewmaster too. One of the reasons I loved the show was the photographs that were taken on the ride. I would have loved to be a photographer along for he ride with Alton. I hope supplies lasted long enough for me to get one of those viewfinders.

I am thinking about doing my own contest here on the BenSpark. I have an idea on what to give away too. I just need to get things together to make it work.
