Every now and then I like to thank my readers with a lil something special and recently I held a contest giving away promotional items I’d received from AT&T (click HERE if you missed that).
Membership clearly has it’s privileges and StraightFromTheA.com reader Crystal Stewart of Indianapolis (pictured above) won the HTC One smartphone and Duane Harris of Atlanta (pictured below) won the Beatbox by Beats by Dr. Dre personally delivered by me… Continue Reading…
Summer is almost over but we can still take advantage of the great weather for at least a few more weeks.
That being said, AT&T has partnered with me to offer a few readers a nice end of Summer gift.
With the end of summer rapidly approaching, it seems like the right time to look back at what songs dominated not only music charts, but our playlists.
From Robin Thicke?s ?Blurred Lines? to Miley Cyrus? ?We Can?t Stop? (admit it… you love it!) and beyond, it?s pretty clear that our smartphones and iPods got a huge workout this summer.
So in celebration of all things music, I’ve been asked?to entice readers to share their ultimate ?end of summer playlist? for a chance to win two great prizes.
I have in my possession an?HTC One from AT&T?along with a?BeatboxTMPortable by Beats?to give away to two lucky winners.
[Sidebar: After all, smartphones and portable speakers are a great way to take your favorite songs with you wherever you go ? from the backyard to the beach and beyond. Right?]
But I digress… 😆

I revealed the finalists in the StraightFromTheA Derek J makeover giveaway?on October 25, 2012.
I’d received so many entries that I just couldn’t go through them all by myself, so I had to call in some reinforcement.
Since celebrity hairstylist Derek J was unavailable that night, my boo Funky Dineva stopped by last night in her best wig to help me weed through the entries.
We selected the top 10, but I decided it would only be fair for YOU guys to select the actual winner of the contest.
