The “U” stories voting block is off and running . . . but no votes. Oh, well. We’ve done so well for a number of rounds that it’s inevitable a slow round was bound to come and visit. I’m hoping this isn’t it, but you never know.

If you are a reader of our stories and someone who votes, thank you in advance for casting a vote for your favorite of the three. Links to the stories and the poll for voting for “Alphabet Challenge U-Stories” are HERE(link) Votes will be accepted until noon, Chicago time, on Wednesday, December 16th.

. . . or an opera singer . . .

Finally, this version . . .

Anyone else sees a couple of eyes (one poked out) and a painful smile? If not, I guess I’m in luck. Wait, there’s another version you might see of a profile. If you see either, let me know.

Well, this update has come to an end. As in . . .

That’s it. This post has ended . . . except for the stuff below.
