just want to say that i don't enjoy having to call someone's living space rubbish (even the more humorous "rubbishola!"). not competivite, yes (a la "no way, jose"), but not rubbish. harder to maintain that cherished tone of civility under these circumstances! hopefully, i'll be proven wrong by an appreciative & constructively critical yet civil AT crowd :)

(nope, i have no entry... just love looking and voting!)

Lisa,
Just so you know, the 2005 link goes to 2006 contest info and vice versa.

Yeah, I'm no Miss Manners, I'm generally known among my friends as being fairly abrasive, if not downright bitchy, but even I have a problem with "rubbishola." It's just mean.

SPSnaj, thanks for the catch, it's fixed now.

And everyone else: we agree with you about "rubbishola." Maxwell has now changed it in NY, which gives us the liberty to do so here. You'll see the change going forward.
