    I'm pretty sure, though, that this would be technically impossible. The system has no way of knowing which story you wrote.

    Just to answer the questions regarding the polling issues, votes are not annonymous as a precaution as in the past there have been attempts to rig the polls. If the poll is annonymous, there is no way for us to see who has voted in the poll.

    After voting, if you clicking on one of number of showing the number of votes, you should be able to see everyone who has cast a vote.

    Hope this help put these issues to rest.


    I would like to thank everyone who has already voted!

    I was really surprised to see so many entries this time. It took some time to make my decision as I was caught between two of them. Anyway, I'd like to congratulate every writer as each of the story has something special about it.

    Impressive number of votes. 18 already! Complete months go by and we still don't get these many votes. And this time we're just 9 days into the month. Awesummm!

    Splendid writing, folks. Keep on keeping on, and keep on writing – it’s selfish of me but it helps with my addiction: I’m a short-fiction junkie. Tough choice this go-around.

    But, Sancho voted!



    So, what’s wrong with this picture?

    Well, I’ll tell ya what: All I’ve got is this piece of dry white toast, but what I really need is a COOKIE!

    A WW sultana and cinnamon cookie, that is low in sugar, fat and calorie... And probably in taste too but, hey, it is healthy!

    Even if they're absurd on some level, this reader loves these competitions.

    Well, who couldn't?

    Incidentally, are there any cookies which are like, normal? Like, made the normal way? With sugar and butter and pieces of REAL chocolate?

    Here we go:




    This used to be our usual cookie until Sancho expressed a concern for weight gain so we had to switch to healthier options.

    Thanks, Scher, you’re always watching out for El Sancho’s wellbeing.

    But the thought has come to mind that I may have used the wrong Comedic Duo for the dry-white-toast bit.




    Jake: Bring me four fried chickens, and a Coke.

    Mrs. Murphy (Aretha): You want chicken wings or chicken legs?

    Jake: Four fried chickens, and a Coke.

    Elwood: And some dry white toast please, ma’am.
    Uhhhh...

    Three way stalemate and one story without a single vote. This won't do, you know...
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...
