misstiatomorrow our second contest of the month will be starting!! ADS WITH MEAT!!!
the rules, i know i know, i don't like rules either.....
1. submissions MUST have at least 'contest' in the subject header....i will not count votes on any entry that does not at least have 'contest' in the subject header....
2. print or youtube ads are fine
3. all regular rules apply---on the community's info page, really, check it out....though i would highly suggest you only post one entry per post for contests....
4. VOTING, yes i always bold it, but yes, there's always queries.....you vote for an entry via putting YES in the comments of the post....i count all the YES votes to determine the finalists....i don't count 'i like this', i only count 'YES'.......and yes, you can vote for your own ad....
5. of course other ads are welcome during our contest!!!!!
6. and is there usually another rule? i dunno.....it's like 100 degrees and day 1 of a 7 day heatwave and i have zero clue how i'm gonna make it.....i have an AC in my bedroom but i try to stay out in the rest of the house with my critters during the day to empathize with them (yeah, there's something wrong with me).....brain not working!
i'll post the winner of our FIRST contest this month (vacation ads) tomorrow morning!!!

Coffee is Serious Business, Part 2
Jul. 18th, 2011 07:58 pmwrite-light.livejournal.comThe Pan-American Coffee Bureau didn't give up when the League of Honest Coffee Lovers disbanded. They hired a truly evil and demented-looking woman to peddle "the friendly drink of good neighbors." But let's be clear about one thing...
COFFEE SETS YOU RIGHT!
( BUT THAT ISN'T ALL COFFEE CAN DO! )
