And while I'm on the subject, I just want to tell you that of all the groups of fat heads, that I've ever had the misfortune to gaze upon, you take the log pail.
Pick your winner, send him a check, and tell him to go soak his head!
But since we do everything here in a highly non-commercial basis, I merely take pleasure in giving you this small check written out with my heart's blood! And that's all there is too it, here.

Contests! What good are contests anyway? Why they make you a million enemies. And all they prove is you've got too much money in the first place.
