contest winners are - page 2:

"Tippy waiting for me to spill something. The original truly organic napkin."

"While waiting for our guests, I found Elahi up there, checking things out." Uschi Grewe



Karla Schreiber "Tzo - our California girl - is clearly an actress!
Here she is pretending to faint from hunger because no one at the table will give her a serving of beef pad thai.."


Tank! Hodges. "Tank never learned not to bite off more than he can chew."


Brucie Cohen - 1970s


Polite Luke Dering


Turkish Stone - I had a feeling he was going to do something like that.

"This guy had been eyeballing my Starbucks, but I thought it was just because I had left it and walked away. A little later, here I am sitting on the couch with it on the table. He jumps over the back of the couch, and does this sort of double pawed dive at it, causing it to get knocked over and spill. Just a little bit thankfully. While I was getting something to clean up he got to have a small taste. Not to his liking! It was, however, very much to Regan's."
