The results of the first vote-off are in, and it is my sad duty to report them. Instead of using text, however, here’s a Quicktime tribute video to our first player voted off… Enjoy!

Ah well, I figured I’d be the first to go. . . my creative juices haven’t been flowing lately. I haven’t watched the video yet (should I be nervous??) but I will later today when I have time. Thanks for including me and good luck to the rest of the players!
Me? I know someone named Amanda, does that count for anything? 😉
Was that an “Adam’s Rib” reference? Viva Tracy y Hepburn!
So long to my namesake…who shall I root for now?
