Perverting Democracy for a Good Cause

Nothing better to do than read this blog?

Here's a project:
My friend Sharon has entered a story contest with Airmiles in which she can win lots of Airmiles if her story gets the most votes. Currently (Tuesday morning) she is sitting in second place in a race of 10. The first place contestant is a woman who wrote her story from a baby's point of view. (That is just wrong in so many ways.) Also, she probably has more people in her email contacts than Sharon.
Go to www.airmilesforeveryone.ca and click on the picture labelled Sharon from N.S. to vote for her story. You don't have to read the story, just click on 'vote now' once you have reached Sharon's page. Warning! If you do want to read it, and (like me) you are the sort to weep at long distance commercials then make sure you have a hanky close by before you start.
Don't get sucked into actually reading all the other stories because I can tell you now that most are pretty lame, including the pseudo baby leader.
Like the man said, "Vote early, Vote often."
