You’ve been waiting to hear who would win Secondary Road’s contest, Blogosphere’s Got Talent I. Before the winner is announced let’s review the entrants in this fabulous contest:

Lin

Her talent is dancing. She sent a picture of her square dancing with Joe. Did you notice that they are out of step with each other. In the second picture she sent, she is doing a solo Lithuanian rain dance while decked out in waders and long rubber gloves.

Clara

My Sister is a quilter and her links show bed covers and other projects that she has completed using her fabulous quilting skills.


Pricilla

Entered her friend Harry the Goat. Harry jumps from hay bale to hay bale. These bales are much larger than little bitty Harry. And that’s why it takes talent to do what he does. He also has good looks and charm working for him — as do all the other contestants I hasten to add.

Sharkbytes

Crochet is her game and she shared an afghan that she did. A very talented gal this one. She must do this in the winter when we Michiganians like to spend some time inside. The summers are far too nice. Right?

Ida

She is an actor. Okay she didn’t end up in New York City or Hollywood, but she’s had her starring roles. Give her a curtain call and a dozen roses.

John

When he revealed his talent for optimizing programs written in machine language, he even received a vote from Clara. Yes, she understands what that means.

That’s right! In a very close, hotly contested contest, Lin the gal garnered one more vote from Secondary Roads readers than Pricilla’s friend Harry the Goat.

Take a bow Lin. If you can in that fancy dance costume.

As the winner, Lin is entitled to eternal fame (or at least until next week). She also receives 1000 EC credits and the highly coveted Tommy Toe Award.

The Tommy Toe gets its name from what my mother used to call this wonderful fruit that makes such wonderful sandwiches with bacon and lettuce. The BLT was one of my mother’s favorites. Every year when fresh tomatoes were available in the garden, she would get together with a friend and they would make BLTs for lunch. I remember those days well, and I still consider the BLT to be one of my favorite sandwiches.

Congratulations Lin, and thanks to all of our participants. You are all winners in my book. Very special thanks to you dear readers who took time to leave a comment. You are very much appreciated!.
