I won a contest so why not a contest...

Last week, All Over Albany celebrated their third birthday (it was a good week for birthdays) and had a series of drawings. I happened to win on of them.

The prize...drum roll please...

$100 Gift Certificate to the New World Bistro Bar.

So, here is what I am thinking...this is the perfect no pressure date. No one has to worry about the picking up the tab, because the tab is already being taken care of, and it has great food, wonderful beer, and the ambiance is spectacular.

So...win a dinner date with...me.

The problem with this, is how do I select the winner (or loser, come on, let's be honest here, I am fat, bald, boring and incredibly douchey)?

What metric do I use?

More to the point, how to apply?

I am looking for help here, and hopefully, you will be able to provide the questions to be asked and the metric for deciding the winner.

  2. Jo, I would love to have dinner with you and your friends (was this the group that you get together regularly with?) but I have plans for Thursday evening already.

    Would another day be available?

  3. Hi Ned, Thanks for writing back, Just a group of friends I brought together to celebrate with. We'll do it again, (We all love this particular restaurant. We get large round tables in back & great service because there's usually 10 or more of us). Great music,good conversation & the food is the best asian food I've ever had)
    I'll stop by the bar & leave you a card.
    Peace, Jo
