Many times, I think when contest judges say that they had a hard time deciding and they were all great entries, they're just making nice. In this case, I'm being honest. I love all of these spur-of-the-moment entries and could genuinely award first place to anyone. In the end, however, I've decided that crabby's five-some was the most cumumtively delightful entry. All that dialog and subtext knocked me out, although, I gotta say that SilverPhoenix's last two almost got it.
Take it away, crabby...ICC #30 is all yours.
