Basically I’m thinking this contest is a ‘grass-roots’ advertising campaign for the publication: get as many people as they can to log on and check out the site. I mean, hey, if that’s what it is then that’s what it is; the prize is still very real, and would still mean a lot to my sister’s family.

Again, I thank you all VERY much for your support!

Have a great day!
Well, if THAT'S the case and it's just a ploy by the web designers to increase their hit count, I've got several different IP's and MAC addresses that I can vote from so I can vote several times. Yeah, that's probably cheating too, but what the heck.
