blue carpet has been prepared...




...because anybody can have a red carpet. But this blue matches so well with the tan of the accessoires  ;) ...


and the audience is in rapt attention ...




Before I start, I want to thank all participants. I really appreciate that you took the time to take the quiz and some even went out of their way with research. A big


Yee-Haw!

The sixth place is shared by two participants

... (hey you save one drumroll because you get two for one)
drumroll...

Melinda (Shasta542)

and

Clarissa (Ellemeno)


with 11 points each!



All participants from sixth place on get a keepsake of the one Thanksgiving we all would have loved to see. But alas, Annie and Ang decided not to share it with us. Nonetheless, I managed to find some top secret footage which prooves that Ennis and Jack at least once were able to share an important holiday with each other...  ;)




And here's your keepsake:

:D Congratulations Melinda!  :D





 :D Congratulations Clarissa!  :D
