Default Help my brother out?

So my brother and his fiance are one of five finalists to win a wedding at the Titanic exhibit at COSI, here in Columbus. It probably sounds pretty dorky to some people, but it's sort of a big deal to my family. We actually had three family members on the Titanic, two which survived. So we're linked to the disaster on a firsthand basis.

So here's how it works. They win a wedding for up to 50 guests, and get a short trip to Sandals for their honeymoon. All you have to do is vote by selecting the couple you want to vote for, entering your email address (I would recommend deselecting the box saying I want more information, unless you really want it), and hit submit. Easy as that.

Before you vote, you can actually read the couples' story. Even if you don't vote for my brother, you will be helping another couple out. And I'm sure they wold be appreciative. My brothers' story is sappy, but don't blame him, I think his fiance wrote it. Or at least I hope so.

Ok, so here's the link: http://10tv.solutionsbyweb.com/cosiw...x.cfm?couple=2

Thanks everyone. I appreciate your help.

P.S. - You can visit the website of our hometown newspaper at mansfieldnewsjournal.com for the write up. It actually made a full front page article. How lame is Mansfield?

Good luck. I am friends with the Ballard's (Dr. Ballard) family. Titanic has been a fascinating story.

Pics would have been nice...then we could vote for the hottest bride to be. Seriously, though, vote made.

Sorry guys. The link I posted was working this morning. I'm not sure what happened. The link was supposed to take you directly to Ben and Amanda's story. Obviously Ben is my brother, although sometimes I wonder, and Amanda is his fiance.

Sorry for the mistake.

it was an error from mansfieldnewsjournal.com, the link they provide has a space between the / and cosiwedding. I think you copied the link from their website and therefor copied the error too

I read the stories to give an unbiased vote of sorts, but no contest... my vote went to Amanda and Ben.

I only skimmed the other stories but I'd still have to agree with you, and that's who got my vote.
