If you haven't voted for Karen yet please do so now. She's fallen behind but there is still hope! Go Karen!

How can that be??? She was WAY ahead when I voted, and her picture is the only one that's funny. Don't these people know good humor???

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN!!!

Well, something smells rotten in denmark. But who am I to cry foul? It was just weird to hit refresh every 5 minutes and see someone's percentage go up up up over the course of an hour. Every 5 minutes there were 5 or 6 new votes and they were all NOT for me. I went from a 21 point lead to a 9 point deficit in that amount of time. Seems odd.
I had my way to win. To blow the contest out of the water. And I passed on it. I'll blog about my thought process AFTER I officially lose (probably tomorrow). But, I did the right thing by not pulling off my surefire win. For me, and for the kids.
I thank you all for your votes. I totally agree with Stacey, mine BY FAR was the funniest picture. People just don't know funny, I guess.

Karen - even if you didn't win the contest you are still a winner in our book!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN!!!

Awww, thanks. My mom just emailed me this exact same message. I'm writing my concession speech right now. And I'm good with it!

 

[ohiominnie]

My concession speech is up. And I sent congratulatory remarks to the winner.
Whew. Glad that's done with!

Happy Birthday to Jay & John!

Thanks for the reminder, Stacey. Don't have the handy dandy list anymore.

So glad Virgil and Frances made the ship, sounds pretty great so far. Too bad we couldn't all go too.

Kevin has been entering the photo contests here on the DIS boards, and he's won a couple. I don't think he actually won anything, though, just bragging rights. But then he doesn't even tell us about it, so he's not using his prize.

Sorry for the Belated Father's Day for all the Dad's, but the DSL is down at the house (again!).

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO ALL THE DFs....

Hope it was extra special.

 

[chip&dale&fun]

You're awesome. I happen to know someone who voted at work and at home. I must send Mike into work today on his day off to go vote!

Sorry that we were down and I could not get Sam to vote, but Hedgie and i did.....

Hey, found out good news today. I won third place in the "This Blog Blows My Dress Up" contest. I submitted my story about Mike's kitty litter kidney stone and won third place!! That's cool.

Way to go Karen... or should I say, Way to go MIKE!!!!!

Oh think what you could do at the Apple store.

Maybe Virgil could organize something in the internet cafe on the ship.

If the damn internet worked on board - I would......

I just looked a while ago and he said he couldn't upload pictures. What am I missing? Or is Karen trying to make everyone look????
