GrandmasterB Featured on BuzzMyBlog

Monday, May 19th, 2008

My Monday could not have started of better…let me tell ya! Just two days removed from the two month anniversary of GrandmasterB dot com, I have been spotlighted as the winner of the Weekly Buzz contest on BuzzMyBlog. I have been reading Jeff’s blog for a long time now as most of my readers know and being featured as the Weekly Buzz winner is a great honor.

The 500 EntreCard credits that Jeff gives the weekly winner is a great prize, but the feature on a blog with a Google PageRank of 4 is like icing on the cake. I am very excited about the traffic that winning this week will bring. I could not have been chosen at a better time either. Jeff just had a great guest post published on ProBlogger yesterday and it is being well received by the community. If you haven’t read it yet, you should definitely give it a look.

In honor of winning the WeeklyBuzz and keeping with the theme of what the contest is all about I’m going to do something to show my gratitude. Since starting my blog I have received numerous tips from the great community of bloggers, so I’m going to give back to the community. I’m going to give away the 500 EntreCard credits that I won from the Weekly Buzz and pony up another 500 credits to give away to one lucky winner; which will be chosen by random drawing on Saturday, June 7th.

WIN 1000 ENTRECARD CREDITS!

Heads Up Seven Up Blogroll - May 18

Sunday, May 18th, 2008

What a weekend this has been for GrandmasterB. I’m completely wiped out from all of this weekend’s festivities. Last night my wife and I went downtown to see Brian Regan; who in my opinion is one of the funniest comedians around. The show was at the Paramount Theater in Downtown Denver; which in all of my years living in Denver I had never been to. The tickets I purchased online turned out to be less than stellar, but through a bit of luck we were moved up to better seats. Luck would have it they were filming the show for a new Comedy Central DVD and didn’t want any empty rows. You gotta love good karma! After the show we went to Pappadeaux for a late dinner. Not to go all John Chow on you, but I had a swordfish steak topped with mushrooms and crawfish tails and chased it all down with a Mango Mojito! Gotta say it was a great evening indeed…now, onto the blogroll.
