- I Walk the Line

In addition to giving away a song to everyone who comments we’ll be giving away the Johnny Cash At Folsom Prison (Live) album from iTunes to three random commenters. Go tell your friends and spread the Johnny Cash love.

You’re not too late, we just posted about 30 minutes ago haha. I should have clarified and said 12 AM CST on the 27th. That leaves approximately eleven and a half hours for anyone to comment. :P

Hey Linda, I sent you your song, and by some sheer coincidence you were randomly selected to receive a album as well. Let me know if you got both of them this morning.

Hey, thank you so much! I did get them. Will put them on my ipod later today! That’s great, I really appreciate it.
I thank you kindly!
I feel lucky; a two-time winner! Maybe I’ll get a lottery ticket on the way to work today. I’m on a roll!

Congrats Linda! That’s a really cool contest idea. I was referred here by Kevin @ CU, and I’ll try to get the word out about this place.

Spread the word, this is a nice place to spend time. I always learn something when I come here, and the comments are thoughtful.
