A major accomplishment, to be sure, but I'm disappointed he did not also win in the category of "the sonnet with the best use of the phrase 'Rubber Ducky,'" which clearly was the event that all eyes were upon. Maybe next year, Steve. Congratulations!

Yay, Stephen. Powow Rulz!
Was the Rubber Ducky contest inspired by Macbath? The Mallard of Venice?

Thank you. It is a timely boost for my self-esteem, although really wanted to win the rubber ducky and bring it to Powows. It's an oversized ducky with a Shakespeare head.
Stephen
