Well, the Dictionary (chubby, squat) got only 3... it was off to a roaring start,
but thankfully fell off quickly. I thought the obvious might throw you, especially
in your tryptophan-induced stupor. Now that I notice, the early ones were BEFORE
dinner.... and Hugo presumably didn't even have turkey!
Anyway, it looks like Dan Widdis is a clear next-dealer, with the "coveted
runner-up spot" going to no fewer than SIX players!!
Takeitaway, Dan!!
