I know who won first place! I'm now officially half as good as Drummond Island Rocks. Juggler Guy is the new first place winner of the Worldwide Rock Tumbling Competition! Here are the winning entries: Feather River Lapidary and Mineral Society would like me to send them a picture of myself when I receive my trophy. Sorry, meviva, you're being replaced. My son just got his senior pictures taken, so I think I might need to hire his photographer for a photo shoot. My wife suggested that I get sponsors and plaster them all over my clothes like a race car. I might just have to get a shirt made. I promised johnjsgems that I'd tell everyone that I used his OMG2 polish. So that will have to be on my shirt. I'll work on a design tonight and post it here later.

Thanks everyone. I may get divorced over this. My wife is really sick of my celebrating. She claims that I jumped off the ground when I read the email. She said I almost did a leprechaun heal click while I was in the air. Here's a rough draft of the shirt I want to wear in my picture. It's very difficult to find nice, clean logos for lapidary companies.

If they do the same as they did last year, your name will be in their ad in Rock and Gem magazine. I think my name first showed up in the December issue and has been in every month since.

Your celebration was probably the unexplained light in the Eastern sky the other night. Good for you.

Congratulations Rob. I had no idea there was such a competition until I read your mention of it here on RTH. Way to go.
