Thanks for letting us have too much fun and sorry if we got too silly!

It was perfect.......you have a wonderful sense of humor!

It was Mudboy's fault!!

LOL! Of course it was!! ;-)

Seriously, thanks again to both of you for your fun contest threads.

They were "fun." And as a general rule, all of the many contestants who lost -- and most of them did -- really can't prove that we were bribed or acting erratically. They may have suspicions, but they can't prove it! Mudboy and I had open and fun divergences of opinion on who should win awards -- e.g., I thought Flyer could win an award even though his dog at his house, Mudboy was skeptical.

But the only contestant who perhaps suspects that he can really prove that we didn't know what we were doing is aeronaut. Aquamarine has cleverly detected that in our compilation of the top ten list entries, we fail to even list Aeronaut's very funny entry. It's clearly appears as if we, while immensely enjoying the list when we first read it, simply failed to recollect it and put it on the list for judging.
<BR. Of course, there is perfectly sensible explanation for what appears at first blush to be, in Aquamarine's words, a "complete overlooking." And, not wanting to hog all the bandwidth, I shall now turn the microphone over to Mudboy Slim who will explain to you all what this explanation is and why this does not reflect poorly upon the judges. Mudboy?
