OK folks, here is the poll for our August contest. We have some nice entries and it may take a bit to decide but that's OK, just remember to vote by the end of the month.

Now get those mice buttons tuned up and ready to click

I'd like to state publicly that this months contest is racist against people who don't live in coastal areas. :wink:

Looks like a runaway, but the polls don't close for another 3 1/2 days

I think you mean biased, nonetheless, I agree

JL Rockies · **Posted:** Thu Aug 28, 2008 5:10 pm

Yes, but proper grammar is not funny...

Reverend Al Sharpton defines racism as a bias with the power to enforce it on others. He used this definition to argue that only white people could be racist because they had all the power. How things have changed since his appearance on the Morton Downey Jr Show 20 odd years ago (that show rocked).

Anyway, I was using this with a bit of poetic license to make a joke cause that's the way I roll.

If the state you live in is the shape of a square or rectangle, chances are, there's no beach nearby. Hence, the "fly-over" states are being oppressed by east/west side.

It just occured to me this is far too much explanation for a joke......I'll go sit in the corner now. :cry:

JL - but you've been back in Florida long enough to have some good beach pictures - not to mention last year Troyster had some good pix from a Lake in Utah -lakes have beaches too.

So it's biased- if your imagination is limited.

Fraser Island just make great pictures easier.

Boy oh boy. I am so surprised that I have as may votes as I do. Thank you to the ones who are voting for me and thank you to the other entries for having such awesome pictures! Jeep Liberty's look so good when they are all done up.

Yes they do - in fact I tried to be as clear as possible on that point:

And just to make things clear, a beach will be defined as the boundary of a body of water (lake or ocean). Beaches can be sandy, rocky, muddy or grassy.

But yes, oceans do tend to lend themselves nicely to beach pics...

Well folks, I guess it will come as no surprise when I say that cmohr is the winner of our August competition

Congrats mate!

daspes · **Posted:** Mon Sep 01, 2008 10:17 pm

dog_party · **Posted:** Tue Sep 02, 2008 9:29 am

Oh man! That was so close! I really thought I had the closing moment to take cmohr when I got that 3rd vote! :-)r

Congratulations cmohr! All the beautiful pictures this month are now in my screensaver Jeep rotation.
