File this under “careful what you ask for”. My friend Edie and I thought it would be fun to ask a few folks what she should name her new baby donkey. So we ran this contest<\/a>, with a “Got Mule?” t-shirt<\/a> going to the winner. And I ended up spending more than a few hours sifting, sorting, and spread-sheeting (yes, it’s now a verb) all the submissions.<\/p>\n

And the winner is…Molasses (or “Moe” for short) Plus, it works in the meaningless bonus points for having “ass” in the name. This was actually suggested by six different people, but JoAnn K (of Muldrow, OK) got her entry in first and gets a “Got Mule?” t-shirt. Jeff S (Santa Cruz, CA), Gail H (San Jose, CA), Pete K (Redlands, CA), Lisa M (Orlando, FL), and Misty P (Azle, TX), who sent in “Molasses” after JoAnna will get a few MP3s as a sort of runner-up prize.) Big thanks to everyone who entered. This was a fun little exercise (spread-sheeting notwithstanding, of course.) I’m sure I’ll do something like this again in the near future.
