Quest for $10,000 part 11

Contestant's Log, Stardate; -308755.59

Here it is, the penultimate post. T minus 9 hours and change until we find out who (me) wins Ten Thousand Dollars! We also find out how the hell they're gonna determine who wins (me again) while the rest leave empty handed (not me).

Quest for $10,000 Part 10

Contestant's Log, Stardate; -308758.33

Well here it is. Day 14 of the HitsFM $10,000.00 TShirt contest.

With it comes my antepenultimate blog post about the contest, cause well, it'll be over. Why antepenultimate you might ask? What the hell does that even mean? Stop using big words Steve! Well, simply, it means this is the third last post about the contest. I still have another entry to make tomorrow morning, as I've been doing with all these posts. Then after the winner (fingers crossed me) is announced, I'll be making a last entry with pictures and such from the finale on Monday afternoon

Quest for $10,000 Part 9

Contestant's Log, Stardate; -308761.13

It's the morning of Day 13, just two more days to go. Well, 3 really for most people because you have to count today, but I'll be asleep for a fair bit of the day. Actually no, I won't be. Despite my usual nocturnal nature, I'll be up and about today. I've got a meeting at 4:00pm in the lobby of the Holiday Inn for Sci-Fi On The Rock. So it's home, sleep for a couple of hours and then become a day walker for a bit.

Quest for $10,000 Part 8

Contestant's Log, Stardate; -308763.61

Allegedly, the TShirt Police exist.

Allegedly, they came to my workplace on my night off

Allegedly, it's not a ploy to incite paranoia like I thought.

Allegedly, they do check up on you by surprise.

Allegedly, they were going to come back at some point this past night

Quest for $10,000 Part 6

Contestants Log, Stardate; -308769.35

Here I am in the morning of Day 10 of the HitsFM $10,000 TShirt contest. Still going strong after what was a pretty uneventful Day 9. Still no sign of the so called TShirt Police, though I did roam the city today since I was off. If they find me, they find me, if they don't then I'm sure I'll see them all on Monday the 31st at the finale.

Quest for $10,000 Part 5

Contestant's Log, Stardate; -308772.31

Well here it is, Day 9! Woo! The shirt is still in great shape and smells faintly of Irish Spring. Not funky in the least. This despite what was a most energetic end to Day 8.

We had snow! I know, not that uncommon an occurrence here in Newfoundland, but the main thing of note is that myself, along with a lot of other contestants out there had to shovel/snowblow/clear our driveways while sporting the ever popular Ten Grand TShirt.

Quest for $10,000 Part 4

It's Day 8 and this still really isn't much of a challenge. Wear a tshirt they said, have a chance at ten grand they said. This is probably the easiest contest I've ever entered, I've only had to endure a little bit of cold when I go outside...

outside...

outside...

Finally! I've managed to overpower the human's consciousness! Contest Tshirt #93846 reporting in for the first time. I would have reported earlier but this human isn't so easily dominated. My gods he's a nerd with an overactive imagination. Such random brain patterns are hard to sublimate with my own.

It's Day Seven, the halfway point in this ardu... fun contest. Things continue to be pretty uneventful, no problems with the shirt and no issues adhering to the rules of constantly wearing it.

Quest for $10,000 Part 2

Contestants log; stardate -308780.43

It's Day Six of the HitsFM $10,000 tshirt contest and I'm still going strong. The shirt is holding up well and is still stain free. Doesn't even smell to bad either, but let's face it, I don't take part in many strenuous activities. It has stretched a bit for more comfort, but it had to, I'm a big boy and it's an XL shirt. It has two choices, stretch or rip and thankfully it's chosen the former.

Quest for $10,000

Contestant’s Log, startdate

It’s Day Five of the HitsFM $10,000 TShirt Contest and I’m still doing well. After all, I’m just wearing a tshirt, I do that on a daily basis anyway. The challenge is to keep the thing clean, I had a close call on Day 2 with a rogue dollop of ketchup, but thankfully it missed.
