As has been long-standing Elka Almanac tradition, I wrote the names of the entrants on pieces of paper and threw them on the floor. Then I looked at Elka and said "Pick it up!"
She looked down (notice Gumby? He has to help, evidently)
There was a lot of consideration here. But she picked one! I told her how awesome she was, and looked down again and said "Pick it up!"
Unlike the last time, Elka had no problem with me asking her for the same cue twice, and our winners were selected.
Drumroll.....
