The Portland Beavers baseball team are running a promotion (explained below). One of the people picked as a finalist is back from around my hometown and is a standup guy, is even a chaplain at the local hospice. Also has big love for working on these cars we love so much.
Anyway, if you feel so inclined take two seconds and vote for Bob Leroy Head from Maquoketa, IA.

In February, the Beavers, known for an impressive list of creative promotions over the years, invited anyone legally named Bob L. Head to apply for this unique honor at www.portlandbeavers.com. Each registrant was asked to supply a list of basic information and a short essay on why he – more than any other Bob L. Head out there – is most fitting to receive this honor, one of the most coveted in sports-memorabilia circles.
As part of the promotion, the first 2,000 fans in attendance at the Aug. 18 game will receive an official Bob L. Head bobblehead as the Beavers, the Triple-A, Pacific Coast League affiliate of the San Diego Padres, take on the Las Vegas 51s, the Triple-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers. For his part, the winning Bob will receive red-carpet treatment before, during and after the game, including an all-expenses-paid vacation in Portland, the chance to throw out the first pitch, media opportunities and all the fame and glory associated with having his own bobblehead.
