BenSpark’s Big Box of Awesome!
By Drew | December 5, 2008
Sure, that could describe the box that is sitting in the back seat of my car right now. That would be my box of Transformers and other toys from my desk at work, see Wednesday’s post.
No, this is a box of mysterious stuff that I collected, amassed, was given, begged, borrowed and stole. This is a box of Awesome that I am going to give to one lucky reader. I’ll be revealing a few of the items that are in the box in the next few days. There is a lot of stuff in the box. You can already see that there is a T-Shirt in the box. Are there more? What else is there? How can you win?

If I had a second on hand that would certainly be a great addition to the box, however. I don’t, good guess though.

I am guessing a IZEAfest coffee mug :)

You are very warm on what is in there, how did you know about the dingo?
December 6th, 2008 at 11:06 am
Corrin,
Maybe….
December 6th, 2008 at 11:07 am
Tracye,
That would be awesome.
December 6th, 2008 at 11:25 am
I just thought of something else that could be in there. Pens or pencils, or both. lol Oh and that dingo might chew ‘em up so watch him. The baby needs some formula, so get on that before it starts to cry… lol :)

December 6th, 2008 at 1:26 pm
I am guessing there is an IZEA pop can holder. I forget what they are called but they keep your soda cold and keep it from dripping onto the end table.
December 6th, 2008 at 1:51 pm
Karen, you are right on the money one of those is inside, that is called a koozy or coozie or any variation on the spelling.
December 6th, 2008 at 2:51 pm
Is it cheating to say I saw on one of your other blogs that there’s an XShot in there? Also, I was hoping for one of your I’m not a famous blogger t-shirts, but I saw that’s a bad guess.
How about one of those awesome calendars? That would be a good addition to the box.

A calendar is a great idea for the box. I haven’t received them yet but once I do I think one might make its way into the box. Good suggestion. And no, it is not cheating to look around my other blogs for what is in the box, that is encouraged.

December 8th, 2008 at 7:52 pm
OK – first… the guess.
Well…
I’m thinking there’s a shirt that says “I talk to strangers”. Underneath that shirt is an Xshot, a dingo who is eating all the pencils, a camera memory card, a Christmas ornament (tis the season, right?), some dingo poop (hey, when you gotta go, you gotta go), and lots of love from Drew. :-D

Melissa,
Nope but a good guess. If I had spare time that I didn’t spend on the internet or on facebook, finding old friends and posting old photos, not to mention playing tons of games, then maybe I’d have some time for a rubber band ball. :-)

December 10th, 2008 at 7:49 pm

AVCr8teur,
There is an Xshot and some IZEA goodies, the T-shirt was a no go because the only one that exists is mine. A calendar might make it in though.
December 10th, 2008 at 10:54 pm
T-shirts..obviously! Maybe some computer software, dvd’s, flash drives, key chains? Socks? LOl!
December 10th, 2008 at 11:50 pm
Is Santa in there?? Oohh…or a puppy?? Just kidding…I know you won’t throw anything alive in there. My real guess is a Photo-A-Day Calendar?
My sneaky adventure post is linked to this comment.:)

Computer software, possibly. We shall see.

Mo,
A calendar would be awesome. One might make its way inside the box. I’m following you on twitter. I think either me or Allison told you all about it and therefore need to follow you to make sure you use it for the powers of good.

Too Funny! But no, I am not in the Box.
December 12th, 2008 at 2:00 pm
Are there empty McDonald’s containers in the box?
December 12th, 2008 at 2:11 pm
I’d say there is a notebook computer! Wishfull thinking!
December 12th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
I think you have a Wii fit in the box (or maybe I am just projecting my fondest wish…)

A netbook? This is a box of awesome! not a box of I’m putting myself in the poorhouse. :-) Maybe if I get a sponsor I can give one away sometime.
December 12th, 2008 at 3:46 pm
Vikki,
A wii fit, well for the amount of time we actually use ours it should be in there but alas no, no wii fit.

This is a family blog. But in case you were really wondering, no there are no sex toys in the big box of awesome. What you do with the contents however I cannot be responsible for.

Hi Julie,
No chocolate unless I decide to add some at the last minute. No keychains either and I get tons of them yet none hanging around. IPhone, I Wish. Good guesses though.

Not that I need a pair!
December 13th, 2008 at 12:10 pm
I think there is a t-shirt for sure. LOL and some pens. And photography stuff.

I am going to guess there are drink mixes to make your own pina coladas.
December 13th, 2008 at 3:59 pm
Mik,
No handcuffs, fur lined or standard issue for that matter, in the box. Good, yet disturbing guess.
December 13th, 2008 at 4:00 pm
Rachel,
Definitely some T-Shirts, yes multiple ones. Good Guess.
December 13th, 2008 at 4:02 pm
Cherie J,
No pina coladas or drink mixes. I was thinking of sending something that was a powder (insta snow) but I feared my big box of awesome would become suspect.
December 13th, 2008 at 4:53 pm
A chicken? Does the box have air holes?
December 13th, 2008 at 6:03 pm
There’s nobody here except us chickens. But they are not in the box. Good guess.

I am guessing you might have a Ted Hat in there.

No ted hat nor hooter’s shirt. Good guesses though.
December 15th, 2008 at 12:35 am
ummm let me guess. An orange safety vest? OK, I peeked.
For some reason this vest really makes me want to win and I have absolutely no idea why. I just sat looking at it thinking “wow! a safety vest!” Not that I think I would ever wear it. Or want to be seen wearing it. I think I just want to own it.
