Increase conceit.
Definitely one of Jon Gearhart's favourite categories. This was his

worthy competitor.

I wouldn't respond in if I were you, ninny;
it's a pimpish way dirty rotten 'closet'
spammers in general test if they've reached
correct addresses on active e-mail accounts.
Surprise!! You're name is probably sold
[fast] to umpteen master mailing lists. Some
hide behind the laws by giving you options to
tell them to delete your name. While it seems
extremely logical and safe, some superlosers
[big net zeroes] make advantages of loopholes
and bombard countless men and women with juvenile,
spam-type stuff. They suffer. No fair! It's a
sin!! I'm fumin' mad!!!--Jon Gearhart
2nd. Larry Brash with: 5 votes

Stooge, I end with no money, because its a moron scam.
Long Category
Mey Kraus only gets the occasional day off Army duty now, but still
picks up wins every month. Beating Richard Brodie in this category is no
mean feat. Mey's 19th award, keeping him at 3rd in the All-Time list.

category. A strong win to pick up his 16th Anagrammy.

5. Mey Kraus with: 3 votes
The Western Wall in Jerusalem, Israel=
Shrine? All jews treasure it well. Amen.
Set Category
I think Mick Tully has been overdue for a win. The Set Category has
always been one of his strengths. It was very close after a late charge
from Tom Myers nearly overcame Mick's lead. The last vote broke the tie.
Mick's 7th Anagrammy, moving him up to 6th on the All-Time list.
2nd. Tom Myers with: 4 votes
lasting relationships=
A giant penis, so thrills!
This penis is tall organ.
His girl on penis at last.
All-nighter, it's passion!
All-night penis/ass riot.
Wayne Baisely and Johnnie Burning Elk in equal third on 2 votes
Special Category.
There was a mistake here, with the 2nd part of Richard Brodie's
Ecclesiastes missing. It will appear in the September Anagrammy. Mike
Keith exerted his dominance in a closely fought contest, winning with a
strong finish. This is Mike's 5th Anagrammy in just 4 months, all in
this category. Jon Gearhart took 2nd and 3rd for his 12th and 13th winnners.
6. Mike Keith with: 6 votes
It was a dark and stormy night;

Jon Gearhart for outstanding efforts.
