51 minutes to get your entry in!

 

[RichGem]

Just received the 10th entry. Warning: Night crawler can count to 10...11 and up just confuses him, but he can count to 10.

Maybe his tail and ears and whiskers can help with counting.

 

[Swampfox]

Allright, the deadline has been reached. The following 10 are the entrants. One will be chosen, 9 will go home with...nothing! Anyhow, my wife is harassing me about getting on the computer, so the winner will be announced later this evening.

Why do you want Ray dead?

 

[nrdoty]

1 in 10 is not bad odds at all. I can't wait to see the results soon. Thanks Swampfox!

 

[RichGem]

Why do you want Ray dead?

"The affairs of State must take precedence over the, uh, affairs of State."

 

[DFrancis]

"The affairs of State must take precedence of the, uh, affairs of State."

or "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few"?

The results are in and the winner has been notified. This was a great PIF, and thanks to the 10 who participated. I really wish I could give the other 9 something, but such is the way of things.

Night Crawler did his part well. I wrote down the usernames on separate pieces, and balled them up. I piled them in front of Night Crawler. He "selected" 5, which I placed once again in front of him, and he chose 2 of those. I never looked at any of the ones he chose, until he selected the final one. One he bit, another he tried to eat and the other three he batted. So, talk about a random selection!

I believe the clause in the Constitution to "preserver the domestic tranquility" covers the relinquishing of the computer.

And, what about the answers?

Great PIF, sorry I didn't win

Thanks again.
