The Council has spoken — September 21, 2012 edition
Wow! It was a very tight race this week, with everyone tying with everyone else. I’m not surprised. Usually I’m able to narrow my choices down to the top three or four in each category. Yesterday, after reading everything carefully, I couldn’t narrow my choices at all. I had to read all the submissions all over again — and even then it was a tough call. If you haven’t read this week’s Watcher’s Council submissions, you really should. They hit multiple nails on the head.
