Now everyone, if you're confused by the contest and are wondering "what kind of entries will win," here is a GREAT example of what we are looking for. This was sent to me by Petra Sweiss (week 1 winner) just for giggles. On what day other than Opposite Day would kittens be pushing other kittens around in a cart? You're correct, NO OTHER DAY. Also, kittens are just precious.
