			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Continuing my fine tradition of only posting when I&#8217;ve created an embarrassing video for a video game-related contest (in this case, for a trip to E3 sponsored by 1up.com), I submit to you the following:</p>

<p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Bcdn2eaWB_8&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Bcdn2eaWB_8&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p>

<p>This entry did not win. <a href="http://www.1up.com/do/blogEntry?bId=8989286&#038;publicUserId=5899732">This entry won</a>. To be fair, Mr. McWinnerson had a precocious child, a mushroom costume, and public shenanigans. But then I&#8217;m pretty sure that I missed the finalists selection either because I violated the rules of the contest by using images that I didn&#8217;t have rights to, or because my video was in a page linked to from an otherwise sparse and unpersuasive <a href="http://www.1up.com/do/blogEntry?bId=8989334&#038;publicUserId=5674981">blog post</a> that was probably supposed to be the heart of the entry. Or because the video itself wasn&#8217;t available until the day after the contest ended. Psh, details.</p>

<p>Regardless, we <em>all</em> win when I make a fool of myself on the internet. Except for me. I remain a big, stinky loser who isn&#8217;t going to E3, and even worse, who just ate soap because he didn&#8217;t rinse his lunch bowl out well enough.</p>
