I got up at about 4:00am east coast time to pee, and did my ritual. I'm not sure if I go back to sleep, if I do it again, but why not?
Now, let me share my luck that I've had over the years. At various conventions and trade shows, they have drawings and other ways of winning different things from various vendors, some by dropping a business card in the fish bowl etc. Lots of small things like MP3 players, but the following is a list of trips won. Not the sleezy time share where you have to sit while they pitch you, but real, all expense paid trips (with a 1099 at the end only)
Trip to Maui at the Four Seasons hotel
Cruise to Alaska
7 day trip to Costa Rica
7 day cruise around Tahiti islands
Baltic cruise including Estonia and St. Petersburg Russia
South Africa--safaris, Cape Town, Johanesburg, Krueger reserve
Caribbean cruise
Rio De Janeiro (won, but sold the trip to a friend)
Again, these were won by me, not someone who knows someone. I have pictures to prove it. So I will continue my 5 second annual ritual and wish for continued luck.

IBDave's been known to hang around am-pm's for other reasons, some nefarious and salacious, as well as solicitous.
