I'm just going to come right out and say it...this was not my favorite round.  It's probably because my brain is too simple or something...but the off the wall stuff didn't appeal to me as much as I would have liked...

Oh well...some nicely written parodies, none the less...so, here you go... 

5 points for Kristof
4 points for The Conqueror
3 points for Stuart
2 points for Jack
1 point for Below Average Dave

Hey just wanted to make sure Thursday was ok to vote. . .I'm sick today and I've been working a lot lately, but I will have time to review parodies and vote tomorrow, am I correct that January 31st includes January 31st?  (PS I will be one day late on my next round parody as well for the same reason)

Alright Phil... I'm going to give you till 3:00 board time, but then I have to go to work so I have to do it then.
If you don't vote by then I'm not going to count the points you got, but you can still be part of the next competition. (Just lose all points for this round).
