It's over! A winner must be declared, and that winner is the Pumpkin! Long rule Pumpkin, most beloved of the gourd family. I'll keep the poll up for a little while, but for posterity's sake, King Pumpkin won with fifty percent of the vote, a total of six people. Watermelon came in second with three votes, or twenty-five percent of the vote. Zucchini was third with two votes for sixteen percent of the total. Calabash received a vote for eight percent. Cucumber and "my favorite isn't listed" didn't receive any votes. Funny side note, if you add up all of the percentages you'll notice that we only get to ninety-nine percent. I'm not really sure how that happened, but maybe I'll just give that extra one percent to cucumber because I'm feeling a little sorry for the poor guy.
Now that the gourd issue has been resolved and order has been restored to the universe, I've placed a new question on the site. It's something I've been pondering, but I'm not really certain what the outcome would be, so I'm soliciting your opinions on the matter. Perhaps we'll reach some sort of consensus. So vote now and let your opinions be heard. The new question is, "If Godzilla fought LeBron James today, who would win?" I think this is a compelling and pertinent question. If you would like to comment on it or to lobby for an answer feel free to use the comment section of this post to do so. I think an argument can be made for all of the selections. Would it be the cagey veteran in Godzilla? The young phenom in LeBron? Would it be the residents of the great city of Tokyo who would most likely host the event? How about the viewing public, this kind of spectacle doesn't come around very often? You also know that wherever such a major event is, you're going to find corporations trying to exploit it. Would Nike be able to score a major advertising coup? Would ESPN be able to turn this into the ratings bonanza of the century? When contemplating this question, I think the best way to break down the problem is to think about who would be the biggest winner out of this whole thing. I think there can be multiple winners, but who is the biggest winner?
