Holy
smokes! It looks like all you readers really want to win $500.
We already have hundreds of names in the LDN drawing and there is
still plenty of time for all of you to enter. There are no strings
attached and you don't have to pay anything to win. In the event you
have an old-fashioned dial-up that is really slow, you can submit
your information along with the correct answers via a regular e-mail
mikefak@lincolndailynews.com and we will be sure you are
included in the drawing.
Remember, after the drawing the entire list will be deleted. You
won't be put on any list nor have your name and number put in some
file. We appreciate all of you and won't invade your privacy under
any circumstances.
Grab Your Fork has a great drawing too. All you have to do is
submit a recipe and your name goes into the pot for a monthly
drawing. Every week we add new prizes from which to choose, and this
weekend we will be adding more great cookbooks that could be yours
free just by sharing a recipe. You can see the list of prizes as
well as our collection of over 200 recipes in
Grab Your Fork.
We love sharing your good news with the community but we also
enjoy sharing pictures. Today we have another rare
four-generation picture.

happy to donate your winnings to the organization of your choice.
