Well, if you’re gonna go after the “Inside Track With the Grim Reaper” award (most unique corpses), **Andrew 21** has shown the best way there, having totally blown away the competition. Also this approach gives one a good shot at the “Quantity Not Quality” award (most corpses), given that he’s caught up with **Registered At Last** in that category. Also, are the people who got 75 points each for Jules Bianchi in the lead for the “Robbing the Cradle” award (youngest corpse age 18+)? ---

33 The Vorlon 78 1 78 Woops, that will change. don’t want Andrew 21 to get jealous. My mom’s lung tumor has shrunk. The spots on the spleen were malignant, last week she had a bone marrow biopsy to see if that seperate cancer is hiding. We are keeping our fingers crossed, as Mom isn’t to keen on the idea of chemo. Thanks for asking. ---
