After a week of mad polling, dirty tricks, and emotional appeals, the two great titans of Lenfestation Abatement – Learned Foot and Dan “Northern Alliance Wannabe” Stover – fought to a tie!

Stover made up a five-vote last-day deficit to end up at (or immediately after) midnight with a 43-43 tie with Foot (another vote or two came in after my arbitrary deadline).

Rumors that this has anything to do with my New Years’ Eve poker debacle at Foot’s place are both in utter error and poetically symmetrical.

Anyway, congrats to Foot and Dan – and to all the entrants who made this such a fun contest! Because at the end of the day, when the measuring tapes and checkered flags and lard are packed away for next year, what really counts are the big things; skewering the writing of Susan Lenfestey.

Thanks! Until next year!

(And I’m sure there’ll be a next year. There’s always material).

Read all the entries!

UPDATE: Dan Stover.  My bad.  Changed above.
