Welcome to the Contest

Urban Honking community, 2007 is the year of the co-brand, the year of the collaborative promotional effort. This is why Universe, the Urban Honking overlords, and (unwittingly) TOMS shoes are pooling together to present to you this shoe-giveaway contest! Why? Because we respect the mission of this company, which, for every shoe purchased, gives a free pair of shoes to an underprivileged critter.

The rules are simple. To win a pair of TOMS shoes -- the color and size are your prerogative -- all you have to do is correctly identify the two objects below. Now, the catch is that the Universe Laboratory has magnified these objects 20 times.

The answers will not be revealed until the contest has run its course; over the span of the next several days, I'll post lower magnifications -- first 10x, then 4x -- until it should become obvious. Post your guesses in the comments section of this blog; the person who correctly guesses both objects first wins the shoes. The winner will be revealed Monday at noon, pacific time. You must provide a valid email address in your comment.

Let the games begin!
