Kevin Graham -- Winner!

Kevin Graham returns for a visit to the Search123 Snuggery
Kevin earns the Top Ramen just for stopping back by.  Is there a better way to honor what is the life and legacy of Search123 then to stop by to say hello after you've left the company?  I hardly think so.

He also said he's going to take pictures with the Zephy Cup and send them back.  So that's cool.  This represents the first time the Zephyr Cup has left the building in the care of a non-ValueClick Employee.  We could think of no one better to have that honor than Kevin.

Kevin, no matter where you go, may all that the Top Ramen award represents be with you.  (Unless you go to Bakersfield.  Then you're on your own.)

UPDATE:  Kevin has posted the photostream of the Zephyr Cup's tour of Silicon Valley.  DO NOT MISS THIS:

Robert Lungfish's Troll Collection --Winner

Look how happy those trolls are!
There's nothing that helps assuage the presence of Robert than the ever-present presence of those friendly trolls on his desk.  Sometimes, you don't even know he's there.

It's not that we don't like Robert.  Everyone likes having Robert around.  It's just that things are better with "Robert and Trolls" as opposed to just "Robert".  This is not really that unusual.  Who was Abbott without Costello?  Could there be a Penn without a Teller?  A Phineas without a Ferb?  What about "Siskel and Ebert" or "Sonny and Cher" or "The Captain and Tenille"...  Ok...  so its not always true...

But in this case, let's all raise our Ramen Bowls to Robert's Trolls!

The Kevin Graham Memorial Jester Hat - Winner!

Jester Hat modeled by Dave Hampton.  NOTE:  Dave is not a winner.  Just the hat.
Although Kevin has left, his hat was bequeathed to the the care of Dave Hampton, who is now the official keeper of the Hat.

Amazingly the Jester Hat has won for what it has accomplished on its own.  I refer to its magical and amazing properties.
"I put $5 under the Jester Hat [located on Dave's Desk] and my rheumatism has completely cleared up!  It's a miracle!"
Susan, Accounting
 "I didn't beleive in the Jester Hat, at first, but after putting $10 under it - I met the love of my life!  And now we are getting married!"
Bob, Facilities
"I've been sad ever since Mittens [her cat], passed away when I was 7.  I put $20 under the hat...  AND MITTENS CAME BACK!  I LOVE YOU MITTENS!"
Jane, Technology

Way to go Jester Hat, keep taking in the dough and granting wishes.  Way to earn the top ramen!
