John and An made him wear the proper costume and greyed his hair, but THIS is how he really sees #9.

It was a good round of contests - prizes were promised and awarded last night - here are the acceptees (in no particular order):
Amy White accepted a Bonsai Potato for her father's winning contribution of haikus,
Charles Borland got a collection of Bushisms for his award-winning "What the @%$#*&!?" moment,

One wint'ry day in Windsor...
Memorable "What the ^&($%?" moments of the week
Runners up include:
Richard's Mickey Mouse voice on Wednesday's "I thought you were all supposed to be convincing, me..."
Kevin's careful reconsideration on "Did or didn't the woman see the kid kill...at 12:10, or 10:15, or 12, 10...Didn't she? Or did she?"
Jeffrey's "Don't you think those motives were a bea-...?! Uh,...those beatings were a motive...?"
But the WINNER is Charles' pistachio-impeded, "Not......Not......Not......guilty..."
Congratulations & thank you all for playing!

Congratulations & thank you all for playing!
And the winner is...
I know you were all eagerly awaiting the results of the submissions for our haiku contest.
"The Jury Box gives
shelter from dull downpour of
Dearborn tedium."
- Todd Cerveris
"twelve men in a room
why oh why do they yell so?
oh god, the fighting!"
- Mike DiSalvo
"An unseen bullfrog
plops into the play - Prosky
I'm angry again"
- Richard Thomas
"and I spent two days
writing a detroit haiku
but had the form wrong"
- Allen McCullough
But I think the winner, hands down, if only by dint of volume, is the submission of Amy's dad - a haiku for each and every one of us!
"Hail to Mike Boland
First in all the cast he is,
Juror number one
Who's Todd Cerveris?
Why can't you see so plain, he's
Juror number two
Julian Gamble
A consummate thespian
Juror number three
Juror number four
Needs a special guy, so call
On Jeff Heyenga
Moving on, we see
There, as juror number five,
Great Tom Gebbia
Handsome Charles Borland!
Loud applause for his role as
Juror number six
Number seven is
Lucky for some, such as our
Mark Morettini
Juror number eight
Needs quiet heroism.
It's Richard Thomas!
Then Alan Mandel
We all know is known to all:
Juror number nine
Which juror's next? Ten.
A grade that's top, A +.
Call Kevin Dobson
Eleven’s accent,
Tried and true. It needs a mensch.
Hence, David Lively
Call on Tony Ward;
Fills the bill and jury box
These silly musings
No, wait, it's not done!
We need a Mike Disilva
To get in and out
Jeff, Dave, Alan too
Relax, you're backed really well:
Stephen Bradbury
Our Benim Foster
Understudy exemplar
But are four enough?
Allen McCullough
One, three nine and ten and guard
We think that’s enough.
Old pro calling shows,
John Galo does it better
The trick? Cast and crew.
Lovely Megan Schneid,
Is now winning life's roulette
With lucky seven
Ah, now, An Trimble
Keep us in stitches, betimes,
'Though you're short an "N."
This light never fails:
Ger Sweitzer is now plugged in
See him for limelight
Eh? What's that you said?
If you're not hearing quite right
Call Timmy Schmidt fast
Gardiner Frascia,
Listen now, it's up to you -
Keep jury box full!
Who needs a mascot?
Angry men, to soothe.
Norman fills the bill
Can Reginald Rose
E're top this magnum opus?
Of course not. He's dead.
Scott Ellis is tops
At telling us what to do
At least he thinks so
'Get on the bus now!’
Exasperation showing,
Amy taps her foot.
Detroit, Michigan
One more week, then we all go
On a break. Thank God."
