Greetings, challenge fans!  It’s time (at long last) to announce the WINNERS for our holiday-themed challenge, Miracle on Thirty-Hack Street.  I’ve gotta say, we received a huge number of high-quality responses.  KJ0 (one of my nicknames for my challenge co-author, Kevin “Frickin’” Johnson) and I felt kinda like we were in the scene from the movie where they dump all the mail on the judge.  I apologize for not getting these answers done sooner, but a family medical emergency in January and February consumed much of my attention those months.  But, we’re back in action and ready to roll.

Dedicated little elves that we are, Count Kevula and I read every last word of every entry.  Actually, we read the first word, too.  Oh, and all of the ones in between. (Well, except for one entry, in which we read only every other word.  It was kinda confusing, quite honestly.  But, since that submission came from Don Donzal, who is ineligible to win, we figured it was OK to skip those words.)
