The response to our Ronan Tynan ticket giveaway was phenomenal, via both e-mail and (with apologies to the Postmaster General), snail mail. Almost everyone knew that, in addition to being a singer, Ronan is also a qualified doctor, but we got some good laughs out of the wrong guesses.
One nice man was very complimentary about the paper, but thought that Tynan was a dentist which, we suppose, is in the medical field. Another thought he was a tailor, and still another thought he was an architect. Nice tries, but, as they say, no cigars.
Our thanks to everyone who entered. And now, for the list of winners (drumroll, please!):
1. Mary Nannery, Claymont, Delaware
2. Jennifer Davis, Huntington, New York
3. Jan Rose, Visalia, California
