FF#32 extension

Just a quick note to let you know that FF#32 will run for an additional week! I will be heading out of town tomorrow and won't be able to update, so I have decided to give y'all an extra week to play along! There is now a second inlinkz button above the first one. You can enter in either one. The bottom one will close tomorrow night, which is why I have added the second one (which will stay open until NEXT thursday night!) Click here to be taken to FF#32! Thanks and have a great weekend everybody :)
