goats: the listmania contest entries

Back on 02/11, we announced the Goats Listmania Contest. We surveyed the entries, and thought long and hard.

After having determined that that hurt, we instead decided to pick a winner. When we still couldn't, we picked three units of winners, each of whom will be recieving a free copy of the book in question. They were:

• Sam McCollum: Riding a Tangent Around Goats
• Chad Peterson: My Life With Goats
• Ryan Waddell: Die Die Fornicate 666

Although we don't know numbers that aren't three, we received entries which didn't fit within that unitage. For your perusal, we list them here:

• Tommy D: I signed up and thought I should do something

Lastly, among the entries we recieved, there were some books that stood out as either having been picked more than others, or just plain being cool. So we decided to list those here for you separately, in case you're too lazy too appreciate the creativity and efforts of your fellow readers.
