Hi guys, checking in…hanging on between 15 and 16. Thanks again and keep on voting [Refresh Everything](http://www.refresheverything.com/refresheverythingcom-smart-board-for-autism) and texting 110111 to PEPSI (73774). Keep up the grinding (and Bumping!)…😛 ---

There’s been some pretty significant movement, particularly in the 50k category. Those band geeks got knocked out of a consistent first down to 7 pretty quickly. Just to keep us all motivated 🙂 ---

> [@Gyrate](#): > > Voting again. > > Browsing the other contenders in the $5000 category I note that current numbers 1, 3, 5 and 7 are all basset hound-related charities. Now I love basset hounds and used to own one, but that seems a little excessive. > [@Doctor](#): > > Basset hounds? What a strange world we live in… It’s the GBHVB\* of 2011 that is in control there…My guess is that Basset Hounds are a little harder to keep because they have bladder control problems and pee all over the place. My neighbor had one for about 6 months and ended up giving her away…not sure about the validity of that claim, but it certainly would create a lot of shelters of basset hounds… - = Great Basset Hound Voting Block ---

Just to keep us all motivated 🙂 But the one in the $5k was back in contention with us in week one when were both around #20, and is now #2…the only ones that actually knocked the dog shelters down a notch. ---

Also, if you have some votes to spare, [Hermosa](http://www.refresheverything.com/votehermosa) and [EastSide](http://www.refresheverything.com/smartboardsforeastside) are really backing us up with votes, and I have been returning the favor and I guess they qualify as our voting blocks…if you do vote for them, please post on their site and let them know that [Smart-Board-For-Autism](http://www.refresheverything.com/refresheverythingcom-smart-board-for-autism) is returning the favor (and they will continue to vote for us). ---

Voted, still at 15. 15 still gets money – but I would feel better if we cracked single digits. Also voted for the other two teams, and left messages telling them that I was voting from Smart-Board-For-Autism. We will get a smart board for Liam’s class!
