 Not a One.
I do not believe that art,beauty and poetry can be judged fairly.
And furthermore, if you believed that sarcastic dribble that I wrote, then
perhaps I should ignore my beliefs and enter this fraudulent contest.
I. would. win.
As W.C. Fields quoted "Theirs a sucker born every day."
I know it's P.T. Barnum.
I  just like the way W.C. say's it .


Know go back to the original article look at the dates and ponder.
