Cracks me up! You and I definitely could be pals! I take out the trash, and attempt to do stuff around the house. But honestly, please ask me to be your sniper in Halo before you ask me to nail up the baseboards in the living room (which haven't been nailed up for quite awhile) ...

So far, all I've had are books. Since I LOVE books it's great to get freebies to review. The fantastic thing about getting goods for reviewing is I feel no obligation to actually LIKE the product or to review it favorably. The point of them giving me the product is so I can form an honest opinion for myself. If they feel their product is the best thing since sliced bread they can do that, and I can disagree in my review if I want to. ;-) I don't think I would feel the same way if I were paid cash for reviews. While getting books to review is fantastic, I'd also join you in your invitation to Sony and Microsoft. I'll add Canon, Apple, and any whitegoods company to the list too. <abbr><em><abbr><em>Rebecca Laffar-Smiths last blog post..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TheWritersRoundAbout/~3/6lo02-ruiEA/add-spark-to-your-writing.html" rel="nofollow">Add Spark To Your Writing</a></em></abbr></abbr></em> I LOVE it when I get goodies to review.

CK Lunchbox - LOL, I WISH I had been offered that. It would have made for a more entertaining post. Jen - Well if your husband has a PS3 or XBox 360, I'd love to meet him! As for the flat screen, I didn't want to press my luck. Plus, I'd have to clean my office to make room for a large screen TV and we already know how I feel about housework. Writer Dad - LOL! Awesome. Tracy - New and "Improved" pickle pops? Who thought there was room for improvement? Love the new site name, but the url will be a bitch to type in. Dave - Maybe you should email CK Lunchbox and ask him for his contacts. Marc – Maybe if it’s a Cat Straight Jacket.
