    Well, it's only appropriate that since I ripped James off, he would win with 10 correct answers. Prize package goes out this week to SLUT!!
    And Brian, with a pathetic 3 correct answers, wins too. I think anyone that can guess that poorly deserves a little something!


    Thanks to everyone for playing.
