Who Needs The Electoral College When You've Got True Randomness?

4:37 AM

After all the nastiness and mudslinging involved in the race for the U.S. presidency, I'm grateful for the simplicity of selecting a winner via Random.org. The chosen one is (are?):

Carissa and Jeff

Congratulations! Carissa, if you will please send me your mailing address (blogginboutbooksATgmailDOTcom), I will forward it on to Melanie Jacobson, who will be mailing out your book.

Thank you to all who entered this giveaway. I enjoyed reading your responses! There were many, which makes me think I should give away more LDS books. Yes? Okay, I'll plan on it.

If you didn't win this time, never fear—I'll have more book giveaways coming up this year and next. Definitely stay tuned.
