Two gems but HF1 is one of the best in the tournament, despite the essay over his left shoulder.

I will fight to the end to keep a Murdoch rag from enjoying the glory of Stockholm enshrinement.

This one was tough to vote against.

It's a contest to determine the best NYM-realated cover, not the best cover from a paper whose editorial outlook you agree with.

You don't have to explain the purpose of the thread.

I thought there was some humor there in the way I said it.

I also thought the headline Piccadilly Circus was better, outweighing the pun.

I think these are my two favorites this year. Hard to choose.
