    I hope that I have done this right. I have been looking at the Saddleback bags for over a year. As a poor teacher this would be so cool to win.

    Am I the only person out there who could care less about Twitter? Blogs are boring enough, now I need to know every little thing someone does?

    I hope you change your contest methods at some point. How about just an email?

    I read the review of another bag (and the company) a few days ago. Being from SATX and knowing of Chuck Bowen, my enthusiasm is full-blown. The website for the company is an awesome example of writing copy that connects. Cool, I want one (or more).

    Why I should win the Saddleback Leather Laptop Bag?

    I blogged about this on my personal blog about a month ago*, but basically I need the perfect laptop bag for my new job. Don’t worry, I’ve done my research and have unequivocally decided that this is the bag for me. After looking through the Saddleback website, it appears that I’m definitely a Light Tobacco Brown personality.

    I appreciate you and Saddleback coordinating this giveaway, and look forward to hearing if I am the big winner.

    Hi Julie. Great review — your pictures help get the scale. The Saddleback folks at EDCF sent me here to see your reviews of their bags, and the contest. My Twitter name is wenestvedt, and I would *love* to win the bag. :7)

    @Darin111 — I have the briefcase, need the laptop bag. Clever contest. Of course the more people who see the tweet, sign up, then retweet only reduces my odds of winning. Darn it. Post your numbers when you’re done?
