Collideoscope

When we began our search for the perfect blog name, Bradley had the idea of opening it up for suggestions from you in the form of a little contest. Kent, Denelle, and I agreed and thus the contest rules were rolled out.

We received many great suggestions and we thank you all. As it turns out the winning blog name was coined and crowned by us, the bloggers.

But in the spirit of great competition, we still wanted to reward one lucky contest entrant. And so, after due deliberation and much conjecture, we decided that an award should be granted for The Most Original Suggestion. And the winner is.....

Chantell Smith for "The Third Triumvirate"!!!!!

Here's what Chantell said about her suggestion:

During the Roman Empire days the First Triumvirate was Julius Caesar, Crassus, and Pompey. The second was Octavian, Lepidus, and Mark Antony. So the Third could be David, Bradley, and Denelle! And since you are doing this Western Culture commentary thing, think about it-what civilization is known for being the founders of Western Civ as we know it today? The Romans.

As it happens, Chantell was the May A Month In My Life blogger. You must know that her status as free lance contributor had nothing to do with her winning. She resides in Alabama, Denelle lives in NYC, and Brad and I live Louisiana. We have no close association with Chantell that would have swayed the judging in any way.

We just thought Third Triumvirate was quite creative.

So, way to go Chantell! Enjoy the 3 cds from Brad's Goth collection, the phone call from Denelle, the autographed poetry collection from me, and the Ninety and Nine t-shirt!!!!
