    Did we ever see a winner on this one?

    Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.

    I emailed them 11/30 to ask about the winner, but they have not responded.  Do you suppose they're welshing on the deal?
