Another random contest (possibly apocalyptic version).

Thursday, December 20, 2012
EDIT (12/22): The winner of this contest (picked via random.org) is Ashley! Like her, I wish our troops could be home with their families. Please email me at tymberdalton AT gmail.com and let me know what email address to send your Strandbucks code to. :)

(Note: I announced the winner of the last contest in that post.)

*singing* It's the eeeennndddd of the wooorrrllddd as we know it...

Naw, I don't believe the apocalypse hype. Frankly, my worry is about the asshats who want to make sure their world will end tomorrow and take as many others out with them as possible in the process. THAT'S what I'm worried about.

I know there will likely be a LOT of 12/21/2012 books in the discount bins in bookstores on 12/22. LOL

So what's today's random contest, and what are you playing for today, kiddies?

Well, you're once again playing for $10 in Strandbucks, good at Siren-BookStrand.

Today's fun and frivolity is a hypothetical question. In "Christmas Vacation," Clark Griswold wanted his boss delivered to his living room, tied up with a bow, when he realized he got stiffed on his annual Christmas bonus and was given a membership to the Jelly of the Month Club. (It's the gift that keeps on giving, Clark.)

So what item do you wish could be delivered to you, tied up with a bow?

Personally, I'd like a Bugatti Veyron. (Where's Cousin Eddie when I need him to play fetch???)

I'll pick a random commenter via random.org to win. Good luck, and have fun with this!

(And, oh yeah, stop by tomorrow to visit with my next holiday guest, fellow Sirenista Michelle Graham. That is, as long as the Mayans weren't right!)

    Mmmmm.....I want Channing Tatum dressed with only a red bow and his Magic Mike body. Yummmmy!!!!

  1. Lisa G said...:

    My first thought is Hugh Jackman, but both my husband and his wife might have a problem with that, so I'll go with a Mini Cooper.

  1. Bonnie C said...:

    I'll take an Escalade, thank you very much. :)

  1. Ashley said...:

    I have some family fighting overseas. Would love for them to come home safely!

    @Denise and @Ashley...hope your wishes come true.
    Mine should 'theoretically' be easier. I'd like some sleep! Not alot of that here with a new baby gradaughter ;)
    Scratch that...I love having her here and she completes our family very nicely. I am so blessed that someone more deserving can have my Christmas wish.

  1. Tina D said...:

    Oh the choices well I know I want a couple of men that are into each other as well as me. So that leaves out the Hemsworth boys.I may have to get back to you on the hotties.

  1. RoseRaven said...:

    If we are being entirely fanciful, I'll take Sean Connery with a bow.

    However, realistically I just with I was with my kids on Christmas. I'm in Fl and they are in Chicago, Il and Columbus, OH.

    Denise - I hope your husband comes through this doing well.

  1. SheriV said...:

    Can I have a job for my husband please? Or if not possible how about a new Toyota Highlander. :)

  1. Denise,
    Sending you love, thoughts and prayers and a bit of wolf magic to your hubby, you and family..*S*

    Well, I would love to find my son and his daughter (my grand daughter she's 2&1/2).
    Their in Fairbanks Alaska, and we don't know when we will see them for a awhile.
    Thanks for the contest, and looking forward to catching up on my books of yours soon...*S*

  1. tozan said...:

    I think maybe a new IPad! Merry Christmas everyone

  1. Unknown said...:

    One of my job applications to bear fruit, a new job would be nice, one making enough to pay all the bills. Enough money to buy a few books for me would be very nice. (All nieces, nephews, etc are gettting books this year)

  1. sarah said...:

    I would like my favorite part time job to become full time. I only need two more hours. And a snazzy boy friend. But quite frankly the job thing might prove better.

  1. Doll said...:

    Jason Mamoa and Maksim Chmerkovskiy tied up... bow optional :p

  1. sarenan said...:

    Lawn service for at least a year.

  1. My family totally healthy.

  1. Unknown said...:

    I would love to have an all expense trip to Italy and then Greece than to Scotland and Ireland...that would be my dream

  1. Kimberly said...:

    Wishing that Denise's wish comes true!

    My own wish would be a (last version with the normal charger, not the new one with the wonky charger) iPhone with a paid data plan for life!

  1. Debby said...:

    I would like my adult children happy and with a bow.

    Time enough to sit and get through my TBR please--oh wait--someone's going to give me a clock, wrapped up with a bow, right? :)

  1. Angie M said...:

    I would love to find Antonio Banderas under the tree! My second wish would be for my family to be with me for the holiday. Hope everyone gets what they wish for!

  1. sammycat said...:

    I'd love Sullivan Stapleton who plays Damian Scott in Strike Back on Cinemax!!! yum

    How about a set of Hot Twin Cowboys?

  1. Ann said...:

    a signed, sealed, and delivered assault weapons ban

  1. SusieJ said...:

    For Denise's wish to come true.

    For myself...Matt Bomer in my stocking wearing nothing but a red bow (use imagination here as to where the bow is tied)....and, yes, I know he's gay but a girl's got to have a dream to hang on to.
    Hugs xx

    Kevin Nash (Tarzan from Magic Mike)
    ;)

  1. Unknown said...:

    I like Doll's idea - Jason Mamoa and Maksim Chmerkovskiy tied up... bow optional or Pagan Lady 0505's Dom of my dreams...or Christian Grey...but in a pinch I take Ian Somerhalder in jeans...no bow needed. ;)

  1. For me it would be a bad to the past and change an event in our lives that has impacted my family forever. I want that with bows and lots of glitter.

  1. Sarijane said...:

    For me a new vehicle for the family or a home of our own fully paid for.

  1. Unknown said...:

    A plane ticket to USA in 2014 in May to be able to attend RT, holding this ticket would be a Man for me...

  1. TTN said...:

    I love and want everyone's wishes above.

    For me, I like a surprise with a bow. Maybe a magic wand to grant everyone's wishes?

  1. jen geary said...:

    I would like a job and a car that runs since that won't happen I would be happy with Alexander Skarsgard with a bow.

  1. Anonymous said...:

    For my 2 daughters to be healthy again

  1. How about a never ending gift card, so I could get all the books from my favorite authors ;D that would be the best present EVER!!!
