The Bumper Stickey Finals!!

Ok folks - after a LONG absence, during which I am sure that 83.3% of my loyal readers (all 6 of them) have dissipated to MUCH more fruitful pastures, I have resurrected the Bumper Sticker Hurt and Heal Contest.

Here are the rules:

1. Read the submissions listed below (can't vote if you can't read! aw... discrimination!)
2. Each submission starts the contest with 10 points
3. You may spend 3 points total in voting PER DAY under the following rules:
a. you may vote to "Hurt" or take points away from a submission's total (3 max per day)
b. you may vote to "Heal" or add points to a submission's total (3 max per day)
c. you may vote a combination of Hurt and Heal to help a submission and hurt another (3 points total per day)
4. The submissions will eventually be eliminated one by one - all results determined by ME.
5. Vote by using the bumper stickers' nickname that is in parentheses following each submission.
5. I will update the standings on every day that voting takes place and will give credit to those of you who are responsible for "Killing" each submission.
6. If there have been no kills for 3 days - all submissions in the lower half of the standings will automatically be HURT be 3 points, and all of those in the upper half will be HURT by a single point (yes, the old "even that which you have will be taken away" deal)

Good luck and have fun! Here are the bumper stickers that made the final cut (in no particular order):

1. Save a cow, eat a vegetarian (Cannibal) - 10

Hey again :) I heard rumor that you were in the final stages of buying the clinic?? So you have closed? Ugh...nothing more stressful...and I can only imagine with a business. But if congrats are in order...congrats!! :)We are so happy for you!!!

Nice to hear you sent an email off to Eric :)...you may not hear from him alot...VERY important man busy :) But he loves hearing from people. You can reach me at enjatkins99@comcast.net. I am only slightly quicker than Eric at answering emails lately with the deployment,homeschool,college and all the normal daily stuff. :)

Hope you all had a GREAT Christmas and that 2008 is off to a wonderful start :)
