UPDATED - DECEMBER CONTEST DISCUSSION THREAD

Since I have far too much time on my hands right now I'll be able to step in and handle running the voting for the December photo contest.

In light of Christmas being in just over a day, submissions will be extended until Friday December 26th at 8 PM EST. If anyone wants to submit an entry they can do it in the submission thread here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/103638525 Voting will start the following morning (Sat. Dec. 27th) and voting will end at 8 PM EST Sunday Dec. 28th. If there are 10 or fewer entries there will only be one round of voting, if there are more than 10 entries there will be 2 rounds of voting and the final round will begin on Monday morning (Dec. 29th) and end at 8 PM EST Tuesday (Dec. 30th), at which time the winner will be known to the world and they'll take over for the January contest.

SO.... anyone wishing to comment on the contest or entries feel free to do so here.

with piece of old furniture from my childhood, glasses and china, really personal history, and new blue candle because blue is my color so I bought it! Composition best I could do, not happy with lighting, but did try.

I want to thank you for stepping in and solving a glitch we created by not paying enough attention. Reminds me of the midterms, and Democrats not stepping up to vote
LOL

Excellent, and thanks again for simply handling it!

I'm sitting around the house bored out of my mind right now anyway.

And I hadn't thought about the analogy of the midterm elections, but you're absolutely right.

Please use the cropped photo # 5 in the submissions, not the one you have in your original post.

Thanks!
