Today was crazy!!
So, my day started with a bit of a downer. Yesterday I received a note on my door saying I had to go to the post office to pick up a certified letter. In my experience, these sorts of things are generally bad news. The only certified letters I've ever received have been bills or legal documents. I took a lunch from work today in order to pick up said letter. I just threw the letter in my passenger seat, and went back to work. Once at work, I peeled open the envelope and read what turned out to be great news. The letter read,
"Congratulations! As the independent judging organisation retained by Intel Corporation, we are happy to officially inform you that your entry video has been judged to be the Grand Prize winner in the Intel "Best Office Pranks" Contest!"
The letter goes into a lot of legal detail, but the basic idea is that I've won the following items.
Panasonic TH-50PZ700U 50" Plasma TV - 2300
Onkyo TX-SR605B Home Theatre Receiver - 350
JBL Cinema Sound CS6100 5.1 Home Theatre Speaker System - 1000
Panasonic DMP-BD30K Blu-ray Disc Player - 500
Universal Remote Complete Control MX-350 - 250
HP z560 Digital Entertainment Center - 750
Monster Power Home Theatre Reference HTS 2600 MKII PowerCenter - 250
Sanus* LCD Wall Mount - 70
Monster Cable 127632 XPHP advanced speaker cable - 70
Monster Cable male RCA to male RCA subwoofer cable - 30
2 x Xtreme cables, braided HDMI male to HDMI male cable - 30
An Amazon giftcard worth $500 dollars - 500
According to Intel the approximate retail value of the Grand Prize is $6,926.72. Oh yeah, and I got a raise at work today. This was just an awesome day! And how did I win the contest? LOL, for pranking my boss and posting the video on Youtube. You can see the videos at the locations below...
