When do I get to meet all of the judges? I feel like THAT should be my prize. Maybe I can meet them when you hand me a giant styrofoam check for $500?

WOW! I would hate to be a judge for this, because these all rock!

Maybe we should throw a big party and invite all the finalists and the judges. That sounds pretty fun, actually.

YEAH! That sounds awesome. Hopefully it can happen somewhere in Socal

I just brought it up to the powers that be. We’ll definitely be getting some party/event action going here sooner than later.
