A Contest for Feraud!

[Hemingway Jones]

Some of you may have noticed this in Feraud's signature line:

lacking a snappy signature line.

Well, we cannot allow this to continue.

So, A Contest! Come up with a snappy signature line for Feraud!

Write one yourself, use a quote from a movie, a song, your grandfather, whatever. Try to capture some of the style and substance of our own Mr. Feraud.

All entries must be in by Friday, June 8th. The winner will be judged by a super secret panel. (Actually, We'll put up a poll of the top 5 lines at the end and let you all vote on which one you think is best. )

The winner gets... well, I guess they get to have him agree to use it as his "snappy signature line," at least until he comes up with one on his own. Also, there will be a special prize to the finalist, unless it's me, then it will go to the runner up. lol

Hmmm...

Feraud seems like a "Bored of the Rings" (Harvard Lampoon book) kinda guy to me...

Two, four, six, eight... tiptoe, sneak, and infiltrate... cha, cha, cha...

Who needs to win with the strength of thirty, when we can win by fighting dirty!

On second thought, it may be hard to beat "lacking a snappy signature line" as a snappy signature line.

'Tis a fine line that separates the eccentric from the genius! lol
