"It's a major award"

    
I'm one of those people that doesn't win contests. Probably has a lot to do with never entering any contests. But a few months ago I was flipping through an issue of Surfing Magazine, and decided to respond to their 'Theme Issue Challenge'... basically, choose the editorial theme for an upcoming issue. I was more interested in pretending to be a surf magazine editor than I was in the prize itself—a surfboard.

I suggested the 'Secrets' issue... secret surf spots, performance secrets from the pros, secret travel tips, etc. And today I was informed by Managing Editor Travis Ferre that I won. They are going to run the Secrets issue. What do I win? Apparently, one of Josh Kerr's custom Rusty surfboards. I don't know what I will do with a potato chip of a board, but I'll worry about that later.
