[Fictionary] SMEUSE ballot

[Ranjit Bhatnagar]

Fictionarians! Here is the ballot for SMEUSE. As has become traditional,
you will vote for two different words - give two points to one of your
favorites, and one point to another. You're also welcome to add comments,
smeuse poetry, small gratuities, etc. Please get your votes to me by Sunday
morning. I'll send out a reminder midweek.

My work putting this ballot together got a lot more pleasant when I thought
to add 'smeuse' to the spell check dictionary.
