Flip SlideHD Giveaway

The good people who make Flip video cameras have offered to let me give away one of their new SlideHD cameras for Mother’s Day.

To get in the running you just need to leave a comment on this post about your mom. I don’t care if she was the biggest bitch in the world or turned you into an Eagle Scout with the magic of her homemade chocolate chip cookies, just tell us the first thing that pops into your head when you think about her.

Please just enter once, as multiple entries will be deleted. Comments must contain a valid e-mail address. The winner will be chosen at random and announced on Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 9, 2010 at noon Pacific time. No purchase necessary! Void where prohibited! Etc.!

Thanks for participating because no matter what, we really want to hear about your mom.

UPDATE: The winner of the camera, per Random.org, is AmandaC! Congratulations, Amanda, and happy Mother’s Day.

Day Eight, No Matter What

The master gives himself up

to whatever the moment brings.

He knows that he is going to die,

and he has nothing left to hold on to:

no illusions in his mind,

no resistances in his body.

He doesn’t think about his actions;

they flow from the core of his being.

He holds nothing back from life;

therefore he is ready for death,

as a man is ready for sleep

after a good day’s work.

FUCK YOU, BLOGGER.
