    Vote For My Wife!

    Hi all! My wife has entered a slideshow of some of the kilt hose she has made for me in an on-line contest. If she wins, she gets..... more yarn! Please take a look, give your vote, and maybe leave a comment. It's the first time she's done anything like this on line. Here's the link:

    Thanks, all!

    Wow those are nice, I did not see where to vote either, however if your wife wants to knit more let me know.

    Does buying a pair count as a vote? If so then I will do that! Otherwise... I can't figure it out either.

    Matt, I should be delighted to cast a vote, but I cannot see the slideshow, any way of starting it, or anywhere to vote. I found a small thumbnail of the three hose, by clicking on your wife's name, but when I click on the thumbnail I am returned to the description she posted! Help!

    Take care,
    Ham.

    Check the top right of the slide show. I saw a "rating" plus a number. Next to the number was a "+" sign to increase the rating. 3 seems to be the highest.

    I hope this is correct.

    Once you have registered on the site the "Favorite" button below the picture will become active. Click it to vote.

    Do the language laws in Quebec really require you to hire a mime who doesn't speak French if you hire one who doesn't speak English? Could a mime who doesn't speak either fill both roles at the same time? (Thanks to Calvin Trillin.)
