    I need 8 more people to participate in my '100 Great Hubs Chosen By 100 Great Hubbers' project.

    It will now be '50 Great Hubs Chosen By 50 Great Hubbers' because I am getting sick of the sight of it in my unpublished hubs.

    Im sure that whoever recieves your nomination will be eternally grateful, as will I.

    Pretty please?

    If 8 people can get me their hubs, I will get you the finished project tonight (and it is already looking pretty good).

    I picked this hub by Russel-D, his writing is superb.

    http://hubpages.com/hub/A-La-Carte-Chapter1-France

    Hope this helps Ryan! big_smile

      Yes that helps a lot Jane, could you do me 25-50 words to say why you like it? You get a backlink to your profile as a reward wink

        Ryan...I'm so not good at this!!!

        Russel-D takes us on a 9 day trip to France, that he and his wife went on for a History Tour.  He speaks eloquently about the history tour they are on and the food that they eat.  By the time you are finished reading the article, you will be yearning for Chocolate Mousse, French coffee and various other foods that he and his wife enjoyed.  I believe this is an excerpt from his journal.

          Well you did an excellent job of it this time (trust me, there are many worse!) Many thanks Jane.

          Right anybody else? I have 7 spaces left..... and I want them filled asap.

          Who else wants to tell the world about their favourite hub?

    Bless your cotton socks.  Its cheesing you off now. lol

    Let me just go and check the rules you had in the old link. I think you asked people to write a paragraph or something and then, I'll be back. smile

    I am trying to do this, but I can't seem to just pick one hub.  That is arduous.  I am doing my best.

      Davina, that's why its taken me so long. Too many favourites and each time I read another Hub, its another new favourite.

      I'm just gonna pull names out of a hat. smile

    Ryan, I have many favourites but the one I have chosen is:

    http://hubpages.com/hub/From-Worm-to-Bu … sformation

    I chose this because its full of encouragement. The last few weeks have been tough for me personally and when I read this Hub (think 2 weeks ago), it really encouraged me. I actually go back to read it from time to time. I also admire the courage of the author.

    Thanks

    Davinagirl3posted 14 years ago

    It is hard to pick a "favorite", so I will choose one that always sticks in my mind.

    http://hubpages.com/hub/GOD-TEST

    God Test is beautifully written by Marinealways24.  It is about a short journey to the mailbox that ends in a realization of the human spirit.  God Test pays homage to "the average joe", and reminds the reader that there is a whole world to encounter on the way to get the mail.

    It's never too late to teach and remind what good ettiquette and manners are.  Manlypoetryman does it quite nicely in tune to Dr. Suess:  http://hubpages.com/hub/Please-Dont-Snub-on-a-Hub

    I've just read each of the hubs that were submitted to you on this post Ryan...wow - great talent right before our eyes!  Your project is giving me great new reads, and new authors too!

    What a difficult task! I have so many favorites!  I finally chose one. 

    Robert the Haunted Doll  http://hubpages.com/hub/Robert-the-Haunted-Doll

    by St. James  http://hubpages.com/profile/St.James

    The reason I chose this hub is because I really enjoy hubs written where the hubber invites us into their part of the world exposing us to sights and experiences we may never get to see firsthand. "Robert the Haunted Doll" is a story you won't forget and the doll's face will be embedded in your mind forver.  Read it if you dare.

            Hi Aqua,

            I have checked the published hub, and your selection was actually at the very bottom of the hub (as you were the 25th person to contribute).

            I have swapped your review with the one you sent by email.

            Cheers;)
