Kind of like I heard a guy saying the other day... he was yelling at the EH&S manager where I do a lot of subcontract work... He said...

"I EXPECT TO BE RESPECTED IN THAT RESPECT..."

Needless to say, I busted out laughing when I heard it but, after reading what I typed, it's not too far off of that pace...

That's funny RP.

I worked with a guy who got a burr under his saddle about something, he said "I LIVE IN A GLASS HOUSE AND I THROW STONES!"

I thought to myself I work with a professional stone thrower. I couldn't help but laugh.

So when does the next contest go up? How long are we typically going to have for voting?

God willing, we'll have it going next week. Should typically have the majority of the month to vote...

How about reserving January for the TOTY winner instead of having TOTY and TOTM in one month?

A fair idea... that could work or, we could have two simultaneous votes that are ongoing for TOTM (Jan 2010) and TOTY (2009).

Since there's so many darn nice trucks being nominated what do you think about giving the nominee's some sort of little icon for honorable mention if they don't win?

I like the idea but, to be frank, I don't want to lessen the winners' perk of getting the TOTM trophy.

How about a Wild Card? I don't wanna win, just nominate

All good ideas and I sincerely appreciate them coming in but, I think we're going to stick with the current paradigm...that being that the winner picks the next month's nominations.

Can the winner forfeit his title to second place?
