All of you who, unlike me, will be having one, that is. I leave you all with this final thought: **Coin Toss Decides Winner of Navajo Vote** OLJATO – When the votes were tallied in a special election for president of the Oljato Chapter House on the Navajo reservation in Monument Valley, Garry P. Holiday and James Black each received 106 votes. Using a new tribal law that took effect Feb. 1, a coin was tossed during a meeting of the Tribal Council’s Intergovernmental Relations Committee in Window Rock, Ariz… … During the toss, however, an unusual problem occurred. While the coin was in the air, Holiday called heads and then Black called heads, too. Never having faced such a problem before, instead of flipping the coin again, the tribal committee went into an executive session to decide the winner. “That [session] lasted an hour,” says Holiday. “They came out and said I was unanimously voted as the winner.” –[The Salt Lake Tribune](http://www.sltrib.com/03232001/utah/82135.htm)
