I’ve done this twice before, and the mail order CD club continues to send me music two months after I’ve closed my account and specifically asked them to not send me stuff. I have their assurance (as well as a confirmation number) that my account is closed, yet I received another shipment. Apparently, I have their blessing on this.

Anyone who wants either Keane’s _Hopes and Fears_ (I already have it) or John Legend’s _Get Lifted_ (never heard of this guy), please post to this thread with your preference. Monday night I will pick a winner out of a hat, or a shoe, or a box…it doesn’t really matter what I pick the name out of…contact that person via the e-mail in their profile asking for shipping instructions and post to this thread. If I get no response in 24 hours, I will draw again, same deal.

That’s it. No strings attatched. I will not spam you, I will not sign you up for a mailing list, I will not have 50 pizzas delivered to your house. Unless you want me to. Let me know if you do when (if) I contact you.

[Keane, _Hopes and Fears_](http://fm974.ent.tom.com/img/assets/200405/2004052110190831117hy827.jpg)

Eligibility deadline is Monday July 11, 8:00 PM Eastern. The post’s time stamp will be official. I’m defaulted to show Eastern time. Any protests will be taken up with my dog, and his decision is final.

Yanno, the last time you did this, I sat through the whole condo spiel and didn’t win anything. You think I’m gonna fall for this again? 😛

A-HA! I knew you skipped out early! Had you been there like everyone else, you’d have enjoyed the round of skinny golf we played after lunch. Nobody left a loser that day, my friend. Some had holes in one, some had ones in holes, it was a ribald time to be sure.

Put me in for the Keane album. I’m practically obsessed with the song ‘Walnut Tree’, so I’d love to hear the full album.

Also, you are a very attractive person, Casey. 😛

I have a feeling this is an inside joke, but it reminds me that I _completely_ forgot to suck up to **Casey**! :smack:

Less than 12 hours to go. Final bump.  
Looks like **klintypooh** (er, his gf 😉 is the only one other than Mrs. Legend to hear of this guy.

Congratulations to you both. I have sent an e-mail to you both linking this post.
