A Randomly Selected Newspaper Headline:

The following is a randomly selected newspaper headline from many years ago:

Welcome to my blog. Please feel free to leave a comment. I assure you I always read and appreciate everything you have to say. Unfortunately, thanks to Blogger being, well . . . Blogger, I can not respond to comments nor leave any on your blogs. They simply disappear into the ether. Occasionally I will remember to respond in the next blog post I put up, but usually these good intentions slip my mind. So if you want to ask a question or get a response to any comments you may have please leave an email address or other contact method in your comment and I will get back to you.

I have also added a separate page to the blog for the Tower of Magic with a brief summary of all the rooms of the ToM in the one spot. The link is just below this and above the main body of the blog, or you can just click here.

Giveaway Winner Is . . . . .

Thanks to everyone who entered my giveaway.  As this was in part a re-draw of my last giveaway that went unclaimed, everyone who entered the first draw back in January was given a free entry into this draw.  They were:

Tink-Sonia
Dark Squirrel Victoria (again)
Iris
Linda (again)
Susi
Drora's minimundo
Lainie
Stitcher
NarinaNäpertää
Daydreamer (again)
ScrapBabe
Fabiola (again)

To this list was added the entries for the new prize draw:

Janice
Linda
Daydreamer
Fabiola
Christine
Val
Whittakers Miniatures
Chrissey
Dark Squirrel Victoria

Because there were so few new entries, I decided to give everyone who entered this draw a second bonus entry:

Janice No2
Linda No2
Daydreamer No2
Fabiola No2
Christine No2
Val No2
Whittakers Miniatures No2
Chrissey No2
Dark Squirrel Victoria No2

This means that if you entered the first draw and this draw, you had three chances to win, if you entered this draw but not the first you had two chances to win and if you entered the first draw alone you had only one chance to win.

I then went over to Random.org and copied the above list into their list randomiser:



I pushed the "randomise" button to find the winner.  Here are the results:


Congratulations to Linda of Linda's Miniature Musings who was randomly placed at the top of the list!  This has a certain justice to it as I won Linda's giveaway late last year.  Here's what Linda's won (plus some extra bonus mystery items):


Because the screenshot is a little hard to read and cuts of the bottom of the list, here is a copy of the list in random order:

There were 30 items in your list. Here they are in random order:

    Linda (again)
    Drora's minimundo
    Dark Squirrel Victoria
    Fabiola (again)
