I tell this is brilliant, not stupid. You crack me up.

SHUT THE DOOR!

This has been so much fun, I don't even care if I lost. I've a couple coins in my pocket so rather than flipping them (I hate the coin toss), I'm going to plunk them down for The Shutting Door.

You didn't even get to the C-Lo...the poker and then the Horse Race. The finals involve shutting the actual door that's on the book cover.

Thanks for your purchase. I was going to announce a discount for all 63 runner-ups....
