I MADE IT TO THE TOP 25!!!
Wow. This is the coolest thing that has ever happened to me I think! I can't even type fast enough. I'm so excited at the possibility that I could actually win this beast now! Anyway, I need the biggest favor that I could EVER ask andy of you all:
You HAVE to vote for me! I'm the one that's NOT a Mustang. The only picture there that doesn't have an acutal Mustang in the picture.
I'm sure we are all aware that the voting is ten days long from the 18th to the 28th and you can only vote once per person, per day. Nonetheless, the only other dude on TMS that I'm aware of that made it is Blue Notch. I honestly thought for sure that more people on TMS would make it into the top 25. I've been reading some of the entries and I've got to say... ewww.
You would think that grammer and spelling and the obvious things like, "I sold the car later because the engine was too small," would NOT make it into the Top 25 but I'm not complaining too much. I know it would have made for a much worse loss if I got beat out by the like of those entries. I'm sorry to all those who submitted and could actually write but didn't make it in. I've NEVER actually made it this far in ANY contest I've ever entered. And of all the contests to win, this would be the one I want!
My biggest and sole concern is the fact that I'm still in Iraq and will be on the day of the LAIAS on the 19th. I won't personally be able to make it to LA, but with the generosity of the sponspors, maybe they will let my family go in my place. It's a shame. I wish above all wishes that I could be home now, much less in November for the unveiling.
No matter the outcome, I will never forget this day and I thank those of you who vote for me. God Bless.

You vote by clicking the gray button in the upper left corner and signing in. Then find the story you want to vote for, click on it, and there should be something at the bottom to vote.

What gray button ? All I see in the upper left hand corner of my browser, is "Sign in to vote" followed by Help choose the winner.
I've tried both Internet Explorer 6, and Firefox. And I still can't navigate on that dumb *** website. In which everything on the webpage, seems to large to fit my browser window.

That gray button IS the thing that says "Sign in to Vote: Help Choose the Winner". You click on it, register if you haven't, sign in using your email address you registered with (if you submitted your story, you've registered) and click the pic you want to win. On the bottom left corner of the image is a little tiny red box that says Click to Vote for This Entry or something like that. Click there and then click "Submit."
I know the website sucks. But thanks for all your votes and good wishes!!!

Hey man, how did you add a link in words like that in your sig? I can't seem to do it!
I wanted to be non-particular like your is. Although I am jealous that others have your name in their sigs to vote for you specifically.

Sweet. Just did it. Thanks man. I think we are going to get a lot of supporters, don't you? Nonetheless, good luck to you. I just hope I don't loose to the likes of the "sold it 'cuz it had a small engine" dude. That would really get to me. We've made it this far, and all though somehow so has entries like that, I think that say's something about us.
At least however, stories that spell Mustayng, Musang, Mustng, etc... don't/didn't make it through.

You are correct sir!
As a Gabbber Orange owner, I frequent GrabberOrange.net and one of the guys over there got picked into the top 25, he's the one with the old man, a Mach 1, and a babby sitting on the hood (he's the baby sitting on the hood)
GOOD LUCK TO ALL!
