I can't remember the last time I won something at a raffle... at least until Friday night's company xmas party. Our company gave out 19 holiday baskets, the last (containing a 1Gb Mobi-blu MP3 player) going to my co-worker and friend [Geis](http://www.flickr.com/photos/geis/). With all the baskets already given out, he got to draw the ticket for one of the 5 vacation days donated by the company to help raise cash for Make-A-Wish. My manager bought a ticket for me, one of 383 in the bowl. When Jim got back to the table he mentioned that he failed to pick one of Linda's tickets (we bought a bunch of tickets for a coworker who does a particularly good job of looking out for our team, especially when it comes to the availibility of free food in the building.) I said "Well, you could have at least pulled my name... you dick." He did. A free day off for me!
