The first officially sanctioned Spork contest/poll is now in the final stages, with bassist Mark Newman's nickname hanging in the balance.
Visit the polls right now and cast your vote for your favorite nickname. Remember, the person who submitted the winning name will received a shiney, new, old sticker to place on their windshield, 10-speed or trapper keeper. All delivered by the United States Postal Service - The greatest postal service in the world!
Through the magic of sophisticated nanotechnology, every vote will be counted, but only one vote per...person...will count. No cheating will be tolerated.
Call your friends, call your relatives, call your neighbors and your state senators, and tell them to cast their vote. Vote early, and vote once.
But please, in your haste to win the very first public Spork decal, remember that this isn't some trivia game. You have been entrusted with the task of providing a lonely bassist with a nickname that he will wear through the ages. Don't forget, amidst the fury to win cash and prizes, that Mark is counting on you to make him cool.
