"Coompatishons?!?
Coompatishons are fookin' shite, eh! Ah've ney fookin' time for coompatishons
like. I'd sooner set fire to a sack of cats than do a fookin' coompatishon. Fookin'
bullshit man! Purely shite." | Lunar
Module Pilot, Col. Buzz Aldrin. (extracted from his book "Coompatishons") |

When
Buzz Aldrin wrote these words, he was an angry, volatile man. Now, some three
months on, Buzz has seen the value of competitions and has given up on a life
of vice and debauchery to focus solely on his life long passion of entering competitions.
Like many of you who entered the Run Potato Run Competition, Buzz jumped at the
chance to guess what exactly was chasing the little guy. Sadly, Buzz's entry had
to be removed for legal reasons and he is now under investigation by several government
agencies who have seized his hard drive. But
as for the rest of you, thanks very much for all the entries. There's been some
great stuff and some real shit. All of it much appreciated. There were several
who thought they might win with just a witty text based entry. You were wrong!
I printed them out and used them to pick up the discarded faeces of other people's
dogs in the park. It was a drawing competition! You never stood a chance! But
for those who did make the effort of creating the vast array of massive bmp files
I received, well done. So first up, here's what the runners up thought was chasing
the Potato...
Also,
there were a few animated entrees. Some didn't seem to have much to do with the
competition, but here are a couple that did and deserve a mention: No.1
by Linsey Miller & No.2 by David Pirnie
And finally, the winner of the Run Potato Run Competition:
| 'Your
Mum' By Neil Macleod | |

writes "I think I know what's chasing the potato, it's a big ugly dead woman.
Probably your mum." Thanks
Neil, that's just super. I liked the pic because it managed to be both pretty
good and pretty crap at the same time. Like a Skoda. So
well done Neil, now just choose yourself a T-Shirt from one of the lovely selection
on my T-Shirt page by clicking
here. And remember to send my love to your big faced, one leg, no teeth,
hair-lip, gypsy-porn-queen mum. Thanks
again to everyone who entered. Can't be long now before you get to find out what's
actually in pursuit of the Potato... Brian.
