rewrite theater: we have a winner!
I'll keep it short. I was going to try to avoid awarding the prize to anything sweet. BUT. Jeff just wowed me with the humor and pathos of his entry. And I'll say words that Jeff has probably never heard applied to him, thanks for killing the cynic. I think what really did it for me was the mention of Slate and Phyllis Diller in the same song. Congratulations!

Thanks for the memories
Of you and Phylis Diller
Like Anne and Jerry Stiller
The time you spritzed with Marky Spitz
It really was a killer
How lovely it was.

Thanks for the memories
Of joking with the prez
Like Lucy with her Des
Went toe to toe with sweet Charo
I don't care what Slate says
We thank you
