From where I was standing it looking like Franz Klingerman won. I request that the judges take 1 week to consider making Franz 1st as he deserves and bumping all others down 1 notch. There are 73 other more important things I should be doing tonight rather than typing this essay on your blog. Likewise, anyone reading this has wasted 2 minutes of their life they'll never get back. Please take this into consideration when rendering your verdict. I once saw Franz Klingerman reach down the barrel of a civil war cannon and pull out a dozen roses with peddles dipped in chocolate! He then walked up to a gentleman visiting the Gettysburg battlefield (from Georgia as I recall) and force-fed his the entire bunch of roses. He then walked off into the Asiatic honeysuckle and tree of heaven brush saying "heritage not hate". It was the damnedest thing I ever saw. PS thank you all for coming yesterday!
