I have given New Jersey and everyone else a shot and our state location contest is winding down. You have just one more week to make your vote count. Here is the update.

Minnesota close in 2nd..................................... 25
Wolverine state............................................... 23

Washington, state of....................................... 6
Texas, guess the Bush family didn't vote............ 5

The battle of the Carolina's.............................. 2
Maryland and Alabama each............................ 2

With one, single, lone vote, one family representing the whole state...Kansas, New Mexico, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Oregon, North Dakota, Iowa, Georgia, Illinois, Colorado and New York.

Internationally.........Canada, Scotland, Israel and Venezuela.

23 states, 6 countries

Odd fact...The big 3, MN, MI and IN have 75 votes, everyone else 56.

Maybe if I had told you the prize, you might have all voted. The winning state, yes everyone in the state gets free health care coverage. This is being sponsored by your congressmen and women.

All is well with me. Thursday I had my first 24 hour stretch, pain free and good sleep. Thanks to God and your prayers, I think I am on the mend. Ministry in Haiti is going full speed. Jony and David started a new, fun thing. They are taking the portable generator to the dump and villages and cutting hair for free and getting a huge response.

If you didn't read that devotional in the last email, go back and read. It is powerful. I love the part, the people who put the most pressure on you, need you the most. Several other great lines that we can't forget...

That is all, New Jersey, Utah, South Dakota, Alaska......last chance....Tom
