It’s More Than Just Music To Your Ears
It’s time to play the music. It’s time to light the lights. It’s time to win backstage passes to a Broadway show tonight. That’s right, you can win a chance to peel back the curtain and see the magic unfold right before your eyes when you are backstage at one of the hottest Broadway shows.
The songs, the stars, the glamour…this sweepstakes has it all. Each month Verizon will award 3 lucky winners:
2 tickets to a Broadway show: Godspell, Memphis or Rock of Ages.
2 backstage passes

I’m especially interested in the Verizon Contest. I enter lots of contests and haven’t come across this one. As far as the baby name thing, we kept ours secret until after the baby was born, but I guess it would be an easier way to do it, if someone wanted input.
Re names, certainly not Ham.
Kenda Smith – I’m a big fan of quid pro quo. I almost always have a reason for doing the things I do and this has been nothing but helpful for me. I don’t put everyone in it of course, probably not even 1/10th of the stuff. Go for it, you can name it anything and do it on any day. How about Caffeinated Communique?
Val, this is brilliant! Ooooo I would so steal this idea if I was a woman of lesser morals
