If we don't get a deciding vote on the "best-so-far" poll by tomorrow, I'll publish the CYNIC poll. After that completes, I'll post a poll with only the two leaders for "best-so-far" so that everyone can weigh in and we can pick a winner.

Doctor: Do only costly therapy, or retire

[Scurra]

Damn. Sentran got to my first idea first. (Should probably be "regenerator" rather than "reincarnator" though.)

Doctor: Don't over-complicate the original remedy.

Somehow mine got missed. It wouldn't have gotten votes, but you missed it.

[Suspence]

I really apologize. Somehow, I missed it all along. As you see above, I was railing on about only having 4 submissions...

[Amb]

I vote we change Sentran's title to: Have A Zed. Acronyms Really Difficult!

Actually a friend of mine has suggested an entry (for fun) that I think deserves to be entered. Does anyone object to me posting one on behalf of my friend who does not intend to sign up? Otherwise I will post it after the votes are up.

[Suggestion*]

I don't think anyone would object to him registering and posting under the name "Amb's Friend".

[Amb]

My Friend (Mike) enters:

Have Automatic Zipper, Accidentally Rip-off Dick

He also suggested: Having a zero automatically ruins division.

(Edit: Having = Have, Remove plural. Got told off for not posting it correctly )
