Somehow I got roped into this blogging competition, The Great Blog Off, with three friends of mine: Adam Loewen, Alan Schram, and Tony Bookless.

I think that blog-off sounds like a British swear.  I can picture Gordon Ramsay yelling, “Blog off you bastard!” and then throwing someone out of his kitchen.

Anyway, if I understand it correctly, The Great Blog Off works like this: You join the facebook group and read as many articles as possible in all four blogs.  At the end of the month, comment on the facebook group saying, “I vote for Jeff” (you could say something else, but I suggest that one)

All three of my competitors have their own advantage:

- TONY is the comic threat (plus he makes friends as fast as Jamison Dick… if you don’t know either of them, it’s a bad sign)

- ADAM is the creative threat (he did all the photography and production for my album)

- ALAN is the intellegent threat (plus I think he’s a hacker… he’ll find some way to rig the vote)

- ME, well… I’ll probably just lose… :(  …vote for the underdog!
