And, all month, you’ll be given chances to improve your chances of winning!! Click the link for the early details, and keep watching all month!!
2. Some very interesting submissions and developments with last week’s Brain Teasers. See Various Answers for more details. Due to a typo in the Bonus Quickie, that BT is being left open ONE MORE WEEK. See #3 below.
3. Since we’re carrying over one Brain Teaser from last week, and since several of you seem to enjoy the mini-challenges, we’ll throw in some more to go with the carry-over. See Brain Teaser #6 for details. Each of these may make you think and/or may surprise you. 🙂 Be careful.
4. Folks seem to like the Krazy Pics, so let’s toss in another one. I actually took this picture on our trip to Scotland back in Fall ’01. What do you think – was the naming intentional? 🙂 See Krazy Pic 5. (FYI: Depending on your sensitivities, this could almost be labelled PG-13.)
5. We just got back from a week-long trip to Savannah, GA, and Charleston, SC. (partly Mary Kay reunion, all pleasure.) I suspect pictures from there will show up in Weekly Photos in the future, but for now . . . For you Forrest Gump fans, here is the spot where Forrest waited for the bus throughout the movie. (The bench is ‘gone’ – it was a movie prop – but this is where it was filmed.) See Forrest Gump.
Closing Update Note: The September Contests are finished! There were SIX entries to the most popular contest. Those entries are in the hands of our Panel of Judges, and all results, updates, winners, and prizes will be announced next week (during “It Could Be Verse” week, of course!) STAY TUNED!!
