well, blow me down, second! Thanks everyone, and congrats to Johnny D who almost lapped the field with his delightful piece, and gee Kristof, sorry for pipping you into second by one of the votes that YOU gave me...

and I'm especially astonished (my favourite word) because I was going to skip the N-comp, based on the lacklustre performance my beer/Maria one put in on Submission Day - which just shows there can be life in the unread old ones yet :)

Congrats to The Marquises of Massachusetts and Melbourne! Don't worry about pipping me, Stu (fume!) with a vote I gave you (seethe!); it's not the first time it's happened (sound of head banging against wall)...I'm very happy for you (teeth gnash!)  ;). What you said about lacklustre performance is kinda funny...sometimes a good parody (or in this case, a great one) doesn't get the response it deserves for lotsa reasons, none of which have anything to do with its quality; i.e. fewer people on the site, the day its posted, where it sits on the new entries list...you've sometimes just got to go with what you feel is good, irrespective of the feedback you've got.

As for JD...46 pts? We didn't stand a chance...well done, my son!

Congrats to Johnny, Stu and Kristof! (hmmm....maybe I should just copy this post and paste it in every coupla weeks to avoid carpal tunnel)? :-)

Congrats to the winners... sorry I haven't been active in the contests lately.. kinda hard without the net. I promise I will be back soon with a whole bunch o' new parodies and new contest entries. Might be a while, but the Squirrel will rise again. I really miss you all.  :(
Happy spoofing everyone!
