I checked my email this morning, as usual, just as I am rolling out of bed (on my phone that is; no, I do not sleep with my laptop next to me.... I slide that underneath my bed ) and found that I won the April 2008 Community-Credit Award! (For more information what it is, go to www.community-credit.com).

Here is what they had to say:

Congratulations. You won 10th Prize in the April 2008 Contest. As you may know, a lot of people competed, but only a few won. Nicely done! Please also keep in mind that your prize is not just a stupid, geeky gift, but it's also a symbol to represent your contributions to the development community. When folks ask you how you won, you can tell them that it was by helping out other geeks. Be proud and brag.

I am now officially a geek!What did I win? ...a Star Trek Classic Communicator!

Captain Kirk is known for many things; one thing is being prepared for anything. Whenever Captain Kirk left the Enterprise, there were always three things he made sure he was equipped with. His Phaser, a tear-away shirt, and his Communicator. 

Now I too can talk to the Enterprise no matter where I am. Just flip up the grill, and I'll be greeted with the lights and sounds you've come to know and love. But not content with mere beeps, the UFP has packed this replica with voice clips from the actual series. Delight as I hear Mr. Spock ask me if I want an armed party beamed down and thrill as I call the Enterprise and hear Bridge here, Captain. So now I am equipped with the Communicator that futuristically prognosticated the invention of the cell phone, and I am ready for a communication . . . from the stars.

Good lord I am a geek!
