I thought the task to find a book having a title starting with who, what, where ....was so difficult! The santa, elf ..one wasn't easy either. And I didn't even get to the one with the same job as me. I am curious though what I would have taken knowing i am a collection analyst....

Thanks for doing all that work Cynthia...interesting!!

It's really fun to see the stats for the challenge laid out like that. Thanks, Cynthia!

Very cool, Cynthia - once again, you rocked it!

Wow, this is really interesting! Cool!

And thanks for the certificate, it looks wonderful! almsot wat to print it out!!!!! I feel so proud of it!!!!

Cynthia that is great!! You did an awesome job with figuring out those statistics...

Wow, that's interesting. I can't believe the Book With a Christmas Song Title task wasn't the least chosen one. That one was hard and painful.

Wow Cynthia, I have no idea how you are doing all this! Do you have clones?! Love the certificate, the stats are fab! Thank you!

Thanks for all the praise guys - it really means a lot. I'm glad everyone likes the certificates. Jon gave me the idea to do the stats and excel made it easy to do.

Yes Cynthia, Thank you for the sweet certificate! It was so special, and meant alot to me. You rock!!
