Ok people, here's the skinny: the Salina Journal has lets readers choose their favorite businesses.
That's the up side.
The down side is .... well, for your vote to count, "Ballots must be at least 70% complete (72 answers)." Oh, and here's the other thing: "Salina Journal employees and families are not eligible to participate." .... so I can't enter. If, however, YOU, our awesome blog readers want to vote for us, that would RAWK my world. :)
Ugh. That doesn't make it easy as pie for you, my faithful blog readers.
So I'm pulling some options (if you really and truly have the patience to answer all of the questions). I'm even suggesting some possible winners, and you just have to copy and paste. :)
Oh, and on some of them I have several options ... that means I don't have an opinion and vote for whichever one sounds good to you!
