La Cieca realized suddenly yesterday she had two contests to get up to date, so she organized her crack panel of experts (or is that “her panel of crack experts?”) to adjudicate, decide, confer, converse and otherwise hobnob with our brother wizards. The upshot of which is: we have two winners!

In the “Funny Valentine” competition, best in show goes to Kashania, who will receive an amazon gift card. Congratulations!

And for the “Carmen in 3D” essay contest, leader in a very close field was Sanford. He will receive a pair of tickets to the New York premiere of the Carmen film this Saturday afternoon.
