While I'm a little late on this, and if you didn't read the instructions on the last 1amgeek [contest], it is indeed closed. The winner was...

The Contest (5)
Get excited folks, another contest is here so soon. I gave a hint in the results for the last contest that this one will deal with TV. So what exactly is the second 1amGeek Contest...

The Reason
I'm sure there are people who are wondering why exactly I am doing these [contests] and giving away all this free stuff. Why? To be honest, I know a lot of people who find alternate ways to watch movies without paying for them and I figured this is another way that people can watch these movies and not have to pay for them, but the money can still get where it's meant to go. I know, I sound like a lame puppet for the entertainment industry, but hey, if you don't want to pay for it you don't have to, I'll do that. Being someone who is actively pursuing trying to get into the entertainment industry (and by actively I mean underneath all of the other stuff I am currently working on) I'd rather not see parts of the industry fall apart. Hate me if you want, but let's be real, I'm offering you the same stuff, probably at better quality, for the same price. And, it's completely legal. What's there to lose?
Plus, I like giving things away. I'd give you a list (which is clearly my new favorite thing) of stuff I've given away before these contests got started but there's no need for that. Giving is fun. It puts a smile on someone else's face and one on mine as well, so why not do it more? The result is these giveaways. So please, take advantage of it. It's not hurting anyone, and it's awesome. And Free.
I'm done with preaching or explaining myself or whatever it was I was doing above. My ultimate philosophy is to not damage your philosophy if that's what keeps you going. But just one more thing to note about the contests, I've already had one entry for the current one, and the last one had the most yet. Just have fun with it. If you're at work and really don't want to do work, pull out a pad and scribble out an entry. It shouldn't take too long and it's free stuff. How many times do I need to say free before it sinks in? FREE! Okay, I'm done. Enjoy your weekend, and enjoy your life.
Move along, move along.

The Contest (4)
Hello ladies and gentlemen, are you ready for another contest? I sure am. This will be the first 1amGeek Contest. What exactly does that mean for you? Well, not much really. I just thought it was a cooler name. Why 1 am? Well that's usually when I'm up coming up with these ideas. Also, the am could stand for archymedi modus, or mode of archymedius, but that's just me trying to make use of three years of latin. Anyway, the contest and the free stuff, that's why you're here. This week's contest is...

The Contest (3)
Bruce Willis and music. Together at last.
It's time for another contest folks. This one will be different and easy. Inspired by the musical [vice] I posted about earlier this week, all you have to do is comment on this post with what you consider the most embarrassing song in your music library. That's it. Give the artist and title and you're done. Your entries will be tabulated and fed into an anthropomorphic algorithm and determined which is the most embarrassing. In other words, I'll be choosing which one appears to be most embarrassing. Because of that you can throw in a story, or a link to a YouTube video of you dancing to it, whatever you think could help me make my decision easier, do it. The winner will get a copy of Bruce Willis' latest release Red, featuring Morgan Freeman and John Malkovich, on release day January 25 (I hope).
The contest is open now until Wednesday January 19 at noon. That gives you just about five days to rack your brain and search your library. Good luck.
So...what's your most embarrassing song?
Dream on.

The Holiday
Tomorrow is Christmas Day, so like most of America, I'll be taking that day off from posting and from most other things besides eating, drinking, and being merry. So this is my short post to everyone out there: Thanks for reading thus far. There is more to come in 2011and hopefully improvements to make this something that you'll definitely want to stick around for. Plus, more contests, more news, and just more of everything. Spread the love this holiday season folks.
Happy Holidays!
And just so you know, you all now have less than 24 hours before the contest ends, so get to it! I'm also glad to see that Sean Connery is your favorite Bond.
Dream on (of sugar plums and whatnot).

The Contest (2)
You know, it's the holidays, and in the spirit of giving I'm going to be giving a bit more than usual. Two movies? Try three. This contest prize will be the original Star Wars Trilogy. That's right, three of your favorite movies in one contest. But don't think you'll get off with an easy five question quiz on this one. This time around, try thirteen. But, as an early gift to you all, I've decided that there won't be super personal questions anymore, however, there will be questions that can be answered by looking through previous posts of this blog. As always, those questions will be at the end (this time it's the last two). Get ready, and may the Force be with you.
Dream on.

[INSTANT TRANSMISSION]
For you sci-fi fans out there, in case you haven't heard the Stargate franchise will be coming to an end in 2011 due to Syfy canceling SGU. You may have no experience with the show firsthand nor know much about Stargate, but sci-fi fans should stick together, especially when TV shows are endangered. So head on over to my rant and my petition and sign it to convince Syfy to bring the series back and help prevent this happening to other beloved franchises in the future.
