and the winner is...

ME! For the second year in a row, I won the shoebox float parade. The competition was pretty stiff this year, shaking my confidence a bit, but I managed to pull through. 2007 floats include:
"Float" float by Jeremy
A highly conceptual float in which the shoebox was meant to float.

"Jason's midget story" by Scott
An amazing visual execution of an even more amazing story about a heroic rescue of a leather clad little person who's Camero got stuck in the mud after a night of clubbing.

"Two girls one cup" by Britt
A brilliantly executed still replica of a popular internet movie.

"Motor boat float" by me



A tasteless representation of a popular activity performed by fraternity boys and gay men.

"Winter" by Amy

An enchanting prelude to this year's ski season.

"My view" by Todd
A float depicting the Lake Union view from Todd's apartment complete with sea planes and foliage. Stunning.

"America under seige" by Mike
This was the most perishable float by far and included cultural American items floating in red, white and blue jello.

"Cookie Monster" by Diane (and maybe Jeff)
Unfortunately, this float was not pictured due to the photographer being over-served. An entire cookie monster was constructed on top of the box. An impressive first time entry.

A good showing by all except Jason and Brad, who redeemed their lack of float construction by Jason's trivial pursuit showing and Brad's badly dubbed Kung Fu movie impressions. Good stuff.
