**********************************************************************

It's time to vote for the winners of my latest contest! I am asking you kind people to help select the first, second, and third place entries from those below. I have included the rules and a list of everyone's entries below. Thank you to the nine participants for their great entries; this was fun, and EVERYONE's idea brought me a great deal of joy.

VOTING GUIDELINES:  Please vote by leaving a comment on my journal. You may vote only once, listing your favorite entry. Entrants can vote for their own entries if they so desire.   The entries with the most votes wins, with second and third place entries following in descending number of votes. Voting ends on December 31st. Thank you, in advance, for your assistance!

CONTEST RULES:  Below are links to my "Mmmmm" series. In it, different objects are thrown or fall into the water and the local sharks check out the items.

All you have to do to enter the contest is to suggest a creative object that falls into the water. I will draw the top three ideas in future entires in the "Mmmmm" series. Clever variations on the theme are most welcome!   You have until December 1st to submit an idea. Winners will be voted on by deviants in my journal.



Good luck and have fun!
