dedmanshootn > my favorite wta bus
06/07/08

many of the wta (whatcom transit authority - whatcom is the county i live in) buses have decorative paint jobs. there are a couple that are particularly special. this is one of them. children from the area were encouraged to submit drawings and then some of these were chosen to be enlarged and used to decorate the coaches. this is my fav as the cat hula dancing in the grass skirt makes me smile and feel a bit more hopeful for this poor benighted world everytime i see it. despite nearing 70,000 population bellingham has retained its 'small town' feel and much of that attitude and has a lot of community projects and contests like this. many of the buses have local schoolkids drawings and also local poets poems inside in addition to the usual ads and admonitions

i'd like you to vote on what i perceive as an injustice. several of us from this community have an entry in an on-line photo contest. the contest voting period will soon end and some one of apparently low self-esteem, and certainly low ethics, is voting other peoples entries down. this seems just plain wrong to me and gets my dander up. i'd like to shove it right up their nose with a garnish of sneezing powder for good measure. i don't like to see tactics like that succeed so i'm enlisting your help if you're willing. i'm including the link to each entry i know about from smugmug, if i missed yours i'm sorry but you didn't let me know about it and i'd've been happy to vote for you, and if you'd take a minute or two to click over and vote, five is the star farthest to the right - hint hint ;-), by clicking the number of stars you feel each entry deserves we'd much appreciate it. you don't need to do anything else and please don't use the e-mail function from the entries as there's a glitch that will erase your vote if you do. enough real votes should swamp some one playing silly buggers by trying to sandbag other's entries. please feel free to weigh in on the subject of ethics too if you wish. what does this have to do with this picture? absolutely nothing i guess but there ya go. the entries are ladykate, lyndon mendoza, mine, kre8ive   thanks
