Wow!

I can't for the life of me decide which of the three entries to vote for. Congratulations to all three of you! If I were in charge you would all win this months FOTM contest. I'm really going to have to think about this for a bit.

Had to use my three headed coin this month!

All are equally deserving of recognition but I finally made my choice.
