"My husband, the jury for this contest, liked the idea that the beads would be
going to another country to someone that really doesn't have the same access to
things like we do here, or even other countries."

I can think of at least a *dozen* people who have this problem -- in England,
Finland, Switzerland........This is not even remotely unique in the sense of
deserving the prize. But your husband probably has no idea. That's okay! I
can live with it.

I'm curmudgeonly. You can say it.

Ha ha. No, I know exactly how you feel. You should have read all the
entries...location ain't got nothing on some of the other people that could
have won. It's a much different situation when you know a lot of the beady
people nominating and being nominated, and then someone who doesn't know
makes the decision.

I hate to say it, but it was hard to go along with his decision since I know
many of the entrants, and this one I didn't...but that's what I said I'd do,
so I did. It's probably better that way though because I wouldn't have been
able to narrow it down! I wanted to pick them all...and I'm getting my way
anyway in a round about way.
