I won a CAR!!
I just had to tell somebody, anybody and everybody. I am so excited!!! I won a Dodge charger and they just delivered it this morning. The local newspaper was here taking pictures and they presented it to me with a big bow on top. It is soooo cool! I entered a contest on line from Newegg.com and I actually WON. Big hurky engine (5.7 Hemi for somebody that knows what that is) inferno red and cream leather interior. Now I got to go drive somewhere and show it off

Don't forget you will have to pay income tax on it.

First, CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!! THAT IS AWESOME!!!
Second, yeah, I too was thinking about how the IRS gets a piece of EVERYTHING
Don't want to take this thread off topic, but I read Monday that a guy had won a "Trip to Outer Space" through a major company (can't remember which one but there were well known). It had to do with the future flights that will take you into the stratosphere where you experience weightlessness. That day is not even here yet, but if the guy accepted the award, he would owe over $16,000 in taxes so he opted not to accept it. The company claimed the promotion was still "a success".
Anyway, hopefully they let you know what your financial responsibility would be and you can still accept it! Enjoy your new ride.

Yep, it means BIG engine and likes to drink (gasoline). So, it's not gonna be the car for long trips, but it sure will look fine driving around town
