Hein Turns the Table on the Anniversary Gift-Giving Tradition!

Normally landmark anniversaries means you give presents to the person(s) who achieved that milestone. Well, that not how the fine folks at William S. Hein & Co., Inc., see it. To mark the Company's 50th anniversary, Hein is offering the opportunity of giving you an anniversary present!

This year, in honor of our 50th Anniversary, we will be giving away a Chevy Cruze! Be sure to stop by booth #617 to enter to win. Drawing will take place on Tuesday, July 26, 2011 at 2:45 pm during the AALL 2011 closing reception in the exhibit hall. Winner need not be present to claim the prize. Registration, title, licensing fees, local, state and federal taxes, insurance and other unspecified costs associated with the vehicle are solely the responsibility of the winner. One entry per AALL member.

Call me a twisted sister but my first thought was that some WEXIS reps are AALL members when I read the following contest rule:

Winner agrees to give permission to William S. Hein & Co., Inf., for use of his or her name to publicize the winner of the drawing.

Would WEXIS AALL Members Take It If One Won? I think their corporate minders might say "no." But then I re-read the rules more closely and saw that "vendors" are not eligible to participate in the drawing. What the heck, some WEXIS reps may need to replace their high-end cars with a Chevy since their glam metal days are over.

So what do I do with the video code for Twisted Sister's classic, "We're Not Gonna Take It"? Why not post it anyway. This one is for Dick Spinelli. My hunch is he will dial up the volume to 11 and folks in Buffalo will congregate in his office for a good old-fashioned heavy metal sing-alone. "Sing it!" [JH]
