JOIN BOSSY'S OLD SCHOOL BLOG ROLL!

i am bossy

This Very Bossy Contest Brought To You By Bossy’s Quick Thinking Daughter.

The other day, Bossy’s friends at Saturn sent her a care package of goodies:

loot

Here’s the deal: Bossy’s Excellent Road Trip will take five weeks, and during her journey she will drive each of Saturn’s five models from their Hybrid line.

In alphabetical order, those cars are the Astra, the Aura, the Outlook, the Sky, and the Vue:

hybrid-sampler

Can you guess in which order Bossy will receive the Saturns? The person who guesses all five correctly will win this 1/24 scale die-cast Saturn Sky collectible. The doors open and shut and it gets 1/34 miles-per-gallon:

saturn-sky

If more than one person guesses correctly, Bossy will draw the winning name from a hat. The very hat Bossy will be wearing on her Road Trip to cover the hair that is too short. Good luck!

    Just a guess and not sure of the exact path you’ll be taking, but I hope you get the Sky in a nice climate so you can take advantage of the convertable!

    bossy’s husband thought the pen was a vibrator? I’m embarrassed to say I thought the flashlight was…just for a split second.
    Bon voyage!!

  10. Sky, Sky, Sky, Sky, Sky… wait, you have to drive the others, too? Dang.

    I’m still bummed that I’m stuck in Jury Doody when you’re in Seattle. Hey, wanna write me an excuse to get out of it?

    Um, is Saturn going to auction off the cars when you’re done driving the wheels off of them?

  16. I am going to take a stab at this Bossy!

    Using my amazing powers of WONDER – my CORRECT guess is:

    Aura
    Outlook
    Sky
    Vue
    Astra

    I am HOPING you are in that Outlook while in AZ – because the snowbirds are still flocking and they drive exceptionally dangerously.

  17. 42. The answer is always 42. 🙂

    And I’ll arm wrestle you for that vibrator — it’s adorable. (Can you see my eyebrow wriggling?)

  24. I’m going to go with:

    Sky
    Aura
    Astra
    Vue
    Outlook

    See, I think Bossy will leave home in the sleek hot car, ’cause she won’t have tons of stuff. But she’ll have to have the bigger cars on the later end of the trip since clothes and stuff seem to expand like magic on trips.

  25. Aura, Astra, Skye, Outlook, Vue.

    My first thought, like Hotdog, was that it was a trick question. My second thought must have been psychic because it was the same as Foolery. And I swear I thought all that BEFORE I read the comments.

  32. Logically they should give you from smallest to largest since I would guess you might accumulate stuff on your way. So.

    Sky
    Astra
    Aura
    Vue
    Outlook

    Although they should let Bossy use the Sky whenever you want so Bossy can pretend she’s Tim Gunn.

  33. My scientific method of picking them out of a hat says:

    Astra
    Vue
    Sky
    Outlook
    Aura

    Only I don’t have a hat with me and put scraps of paper in my hand.

    Looking forward to meeting you next week!

  37. I think you’ll drive “up the chain” of fanciness so I guess:
    Astra, Aura, Vue, Outlook, Sky

    Best for the last sort of thing….

    P.S. Five weeks on the road, and Bossy should have a vibrator!

  39. Seems like Bossy fell into the sewer and came up with ice cream in her mouth. Saturn is awesome. I hope they get lots of bloggy customers from this.

    Reply

  40. Given the hybrid nature of Saturn’s sponsorship, if it was a vibrator, it would have to be solar powered or at the very least be a wind up.

    Mr.Bossy is so silly.

    And, short, smort, I wanna see the ‘do!!!

    Reply

  43. Heh heh, she said Ass-tra!

    OK, my guess, because my boys would so love that model car:

    Vue
    Aura
    Sky
    OUtlook
    Astra

  55. That Sky is super sexy! I’m wishing I could see you in Orlando!!!

    I’m telling you – if you have the Sky when you’re in Florida it’s a CRIME not to drive down the Keys in it…

    Reply

  57. All I have to say is:
    Sky
    Sky
    Sky
    Sky
    Sky!
    And in that order… it’s a road trip for crying out loud!
    ps.. Hmm… I’m thinkin’ your husband has size issues!!! Unless of course, he meant ‘compact’ vibrator!

    Reply

  60. What ever order … we’re all excited you’re coming and we just want you to drive safely =)

    You are going to have a fantastic road trip girl!

  63. Are we in any way jeopardizing Bossy’s road trip sponsorship with vibrator talk? Or maybe it helps to create BUZZ?

    I am so gonna get it in the next life.

    Reply

  65. Astra
    Vue
    Aura
    Outlook
    Sky
    Because it’s almost like a sentence directing you what to do on the trip:

    At’s’yer vue, or’a outlook the sky.

    A stretch, yes, but I have to find a way to make sense of the gamble.

    Reply

  68. As much as I would like to play, if we welcome one more die cast model into this home, I will be forced to leave. Good luck all and I’ll cheer for the winner and hope that you don’t end up with a bazillion cars in your future.

    Reply

  72. I’m not playing because I’m hopeless at this sort of thing and even though I know I’m hopeless I get all hopeful that maybe I was right and then start imagining my life with the prize, even if it is a pen impersonating a vibrator, only to be totally deflated when I don’t win anything. At all.

    But I will say that this sponsorship has already done it’s job as even though we don’t have Saturn cars over here I now know they produce five hybrid models and lo, it came to pass that a company I know nothing of now has good standing in the corporate ethics component of my brain.

  73. 5 cars AND a vibrator? gah i’m so jealous!

    ok, since you’ll be in TEXAS (where it will be nice and warm) at the beginning of week 2…hang on let me get my calculator out…

    Astra (because it’s totally a yankee car)
    Sky (to take advantage of the southern weather…and take biddy for a ride)
    Aura (to make you feel grown up)
    Vue (i got nothin here)
    and finally, the Outlook (to accommodate the plethora of shit i’m sure bossy is going to accumulate over 5 weeks)

    Astra, Sky, Aura, Vue, Outlook. whew…

    Reply

  75. You are the *BEST*!

    I don’t care if I win your contest but I will enter just in case Karma decides to pay me back for helping old ladies across the street (ok – for wishing someone would help that old lady I saw, while on the bus the other day, cross the street. But I totally would have done it myself if the bus would have stopped) and clicking on random banner ads on different websites (Bloggers gots to eat too, ya’ll!)

    But more than winning I wanted to say, yay you! Great blog! Fantastic, fun, entertaining and engaging writing and visuals. I enjoy your site, and not just because it kills a few minutes of my work day. I read in my ‘off’ hours too!

    So, keep it up. Happy trails on the road trip and never stop sharing it with us. (‘It’ being the entertaining fun shit. If ‘it’ starts to encompass, you know, your bowels, religion, dog, depression, ohhhhh wait a minute…sorry I was thinking of another blog – disregard last comments I was thinking of one of the repetitive ‘Mommy Bloggers’….) You just keep on, keeping on with this shit. It’s fun.

    Oh and order is:

    Vue, Outlook (love it!), Astra, Aura, Sky

    Reply

  77. Outlook
    Vue
    Astra
    Aura
    Sky, which has to be last, because would you ever trade it in for anything else?

    Also, as a bonus, if you make it to the Hudson Valley, I’ll let you drive my Ion.

  79. This is made more difficult by the fact that I don’t seem to know where Bossy is starting from (not Canada, I gather). So weather is not going to help me. OK then.

    Sky first, for the sexy photo-op of an unencumbered, free and easy Bossy, brought to you by our sponsor ™.

    Astra, then Aura, for the boring middle parts (deserts, plains) where they don’t have the internets yet, so fewer stops.

    Vue, because the presents and memorabilia will begin to accumulate as you travel. Plus running over all those pushpins Bossy will need a sturdier car.

    Outlook last, because it looks the roomiest, and Bossy will have to bring home a lot of groupies and plaster casters, people who want to marry one or the other of her children (or, from Utah, both) and all those heavy clothes she had to buy as she went through various global-warming-induced weather episodes.

  92. I couldn’t decide if I should go with my first instinct, which was alphabetical order, or the one I HOPE is the case, which is that you’ve got the Sky while here in California. You’d be hot cruising PCH in that ride. So, I’ll do what is always wrong and go against my first gut:

    Aura, Outlook, Sky, Astra, Vue

    Reply

  94. Well, you HAVE to have the sky when you’re in California, so that has to be third. By process of elimination, putting the two SUV’s far enough apart:

    Outlook
    Aura
    Sky
    Vue
    Astra

    Have a sweet ride!

    Reply

  96. Oh! Oh! I know.

    No, wait. That was the last competition. This time I see:
    4 x box on wheels
    1 x cool car

    So my guess will be: Sky, Sky, Sky, Sky, dog hiney.

    Am I close? Huh? Huh?

    Reply

  98. No guess. I just want to say it’s freaking hilarious that you got your trip sponsored by Saturn.

    Maybe on the way home Marquis Jet will step up?

    Reply

  104. Saturn is very generous. If it was up to me, my fantasy guess would be sky, sky, sky, sky and sky.

    But my real guess is:

    Aura
    Outlook
    Sky
    Vue
    Astra

  107. Here is the order: the first followed by the third, the third preceded by the second, and the fifth preceded by the fourth that follows the third. The one you like the best is the one you’ll spill the milkshake in.

    Reply

  110. I already have a full-size Aura (which I love) and not one, but TWO of the Sky models (one red, one black). OK, technically my kids each have a model but since I’m already all Saturned up, I’ll pass.
