The winner's name begins with the letter 'W'. The boss is giving everyone a hint as to who won.

Swami, your boss might have been simply giving you a hint (as MM said) or your boss might have been referring to a specific person who is known as "W" (pronounced "Dubya"). George W. Bush is well-known for his "Bushisms" and has recently become the talk of the town once again because he was overheard saying the word "sh*t".

Hi Swami

Do you think there might be a third or even a fourth possible explanation? What do you think your boss was trying to say?
