CNET's U.S. offices are closed today, but we have a special episode for you. We had so many great submissions to our 1,000th episode that we couldn't fit all the clips in the show and do everything else we wanted. So, today you get all the clips--or at least most of them. Every clip sent to us that is usable is in today's montage. We've credited everyone who sent us a clip, even if there was a problem with the submission and we couldn't use it. You're too cool BOL audience. Thanks for listening! And believe us, we know it's long. You don't have to listen to the whole thing if you don't want to. We'll be back with regular episodes Monday.

We asked for submissions from our fans for the podcast art that would be attached to the MP3 file for episode 1,000. We received a number of awesome submissions, but alas, there could be only one winner. Here is a slideshow with the winning submission, as well as the rest of the pack.
Congratulations to Emmanuel from France for such a creative (and nerdy) take on the BOL logo for episode 1,000. And as always, thanks to EVERYONE for taking part in this.
