These contests were of the nature "change one letter of a 'famous' phrase to make it funny (ex. CHOCK FULL OF NUNS THE HEAVENLY COFFEE)." Well the response on them were very favorable. As a result I am going to experiment with the FIRST NET CONTEST. THE RULES: 1. All entries MUST BE MAILED to me, NOT POSTED TO THE NET!!!!!! 2. Only one entry per person. Sites can have multiple entries and multiple people can contribute to an entry. 3. People who call themselves OZ will be disqualified. 4. The judging will be done by certain select people who happen to walk into my office while I am reading my mail. THE CONTEST: Write a "shaggy dog" story where the punchline contains the following pun on a famous "mouseketeer's" (now Skippy peanut butter spokes person) name: A NET FULL OF JELLO I will post the "best" and most imaginative answers to this challenge in about two weeks. This contest void where prohibited by management, or good sense. OZ seismo!rlgvax!oz
