FROM TOM LOVINGGOOD, February 27, 2008:
"I vote for Tom Lovinggood
Tom Lovinggood"
TO TOM: Bravo! Blog Contest Committee rules that voting for self is legal, however, winner must win by more than 1 vote. Lobbying is encouraged - recommend you make personal calls or e-mails to many Tick-a-lo's to promote your candidacy.
BALLOT RECEIVED FROM VINNY STARR, February 27, 2008:
"Larry:
Some good laughs there. A job well done, except for the obvious exclusionery error. See attached to rectify this error.
Vinnie
P.S. I vote for 1st place - Doug Campbell, 2nd place - Mark Hektner, third place - Van Sayler"
TO VIN: Glad you had some laughs. Laughter is underrated. I'll try to post your attachment, if possible.
BALLOT RECEIVED FROM TISON KEEL, February 28, 2008:
"I really want that dinner at Rotier's, especially on Bozo. I vote for Tison Keel as Randy Travis.
But not as Too Tall Jones"
TO TISON: ILAMNATOB (I love all my Narcissistic ATO Brothers)! It takes one to know one, as they say.
I get a lot of Dr. Emmett Brown references these days... the ill effects of age are setting in. Marty Feldman, RIP. I go with Phibes, Fotch, and Conrad the Magnificent, in that order.
