Kinda odd. . .though the rules say ONE ENTRY, once you've entered, an opportunity for another short statement pops up and once you've completed that, this notice appears: Women are speaking out. What do you have to say? Submit your answer here and you could win a new pink BlackBerry Curve smartphone from Verizon Wireless. A new winner every week. Come back again next week for a new topic and another chance to win!
