It seems that I either get 3rd place points or none in these contests LOL. Thanks Abbott!

Hey Abbott, I was just wondering if you were gonna try to get in the T.I. round? Since you're doing pretty well in this one.

I don't know, I don't have any TI parodies done yet. I was going to do one of "Whatever You Like" right before Al released his, and it was pretty much the same idea...so I don't know yet.

Here are my mildly late votes, given without seeing an yone's votes (except blaydeman's, which doesn't affect my decision) for optimal fairness.

5 points to Dave's tongue Tripping
4 to Matt's Onstar
3 to TCOP's Beach Chair
2 to Abbott's 31 flavors
1 to Blaydeman's ode to benjamin button

1 Point to Blaydeman

2 Points to Matthias

3 Points to Ethan

4 Points to The Conqueror of Parodies

5 Points to Abbott Skelding

Actually, honestly, that was an AMAZING round, great job by all--truly a difficult round when your 3rd place choice is something that normally would get 5 points easy in most contests, and none would be out of consideration for high points in an ABC round or SOTM...great job everyone
