Yikes.  Expect a vote from me in a day or two.  :-[

I guess it should say "Letter" and not "Month".  Gee, wonder where I copied that from?  I think the deadline is supposed to be tonight so you're not late...yet  :)

I have no problem extending it till Sunday, April 3rd (I think we're still waiting on 8 people) to get consistent with the B contest.

5 points to Martha with her pie-ous #13.
4 points to Mehli and the twist at the end in #10.
3 points to EmiLoca. (I so coined the term 'fark' in Azkaban first.) Twice the smell of number twos= #4.
2 points to Phil for causing a Seinfeld-episode reliving with #14.
1 point to Kristof, whose hairdresser can't get rid of Aussie roots in #6.

Fine round, y'all.

5 points to Jake Lukest.  After finally hearing the song, this was just an amazing effort.  Besides, I owe it to him after ignoring him for 4 days, pretending I was out of town.

4 points to MooRocca.  Few parodies make me laugh out loud, but even fewer make my Daddy laugh out loud...because he's a mute.  Heh.  Heh.

3 points to Martha.  Mmmm, pie.   

2 points to Charlie D, mostly for the use of the word 'n00b', which rhymes with 'L00b' and 'p00b'.

1 point to Phil Alexander for an awesomely silly parody of a silly awesome song. 

Sorry I was late.
