Gail, HOORAY, HOORAY. So deserved!

Cathy and Quincy. Toot, toot and bang on the washboards.

Big congrats to all.

(Mike, yes, she was just in another thread of mine, walking along the ceiling playing a didgeridoo. Is it Spiderwoman? No. Is it Batgirl? No. It's the Kryptonite Kidderoo.)

Congratulations, Gail, Cathy, Jean, and Quincy! I have heard from Philip Dacey that he is a finalist, too. If you don't know his name, he was one of the two editors of Strong Measures, an early, influential collection of formalist poetry, and recently had some poems in Measure.
