In honor of all of this, I want pass on a few things to the blogosphere. I'm calling it a "kind of giveaway" because I really wanted my first giveaway to be something huge or special, like a million dollars, so this doesn't count for my first giveaway. But it's still a giveaway, in honor of Labor Day. Here are a few things that I want to let one of my bloggie friends enjoy:
#1--a coupon for free POMx tea. Janny from POM Wonderful sent me a few varieties of this product to try, and I really like it. It is not as tart as the the straight pomegranate juice, and it tastes really great. There are 8 different flavors, all anti-oxidant super teas. My favorite is the Peach Passion. It is made with hand-picked, whole-leaf tea, is low in caffeine, and is packed with POMx (a blend of anti-oxidants made from pomegranates). This coupon is good for a free bottle of POM Tea, any flavor.
#2--a poken. Yes, a poken. What is a poken, do you ask? It is basically a digital business card. It's a USB social networking device. You enter your information--email, facebook, twitter, etc--and then if you're out and about and meet someone that interests you, you can touch your poken to theirs, and you exchange information. You can find out more about them here. They are really big in Europe, but haven't caught on in the states yet.
#3--a book--an autographed copy of "The Runner's Guide to the Meaning of Life." This book is signed by Amby Burfoot, one of the editor's of Runner's World magazine and winner of the 1968 Boston Marathon. Nice little read, as Amby reflects on 35 years of running.
#4--a couple of sample of Anti-Monkey Butt Powder, that I mentioned in my last post. You can try it out for yourself.
So there you have it. A few items for one lucky winner.

Enter by September 11th, I will announce the winner sometime next weekend.
Have a great labor day everyone!
