Hey all,
I read a funny strip in the comics this morning (doing…um…blog research….) the punchline went something like:

Okay…
We had a number of great entries in the “Princess Gracie Caption Contest” as well as several that sucked like an atomic Hoover… (we won’t mention any names of course…*cough* DINANNA *cough*)
