Kevin was the only person who scored.... However... it was the last one of the quarter, it didn't change the standings one iota, And Graham beats out Restless by one point in a squeeker... Congratulations Graham! You now get to see your name in lights for the next 3 months... Woot!

Not the exact picture, but enough to convince me that my first guess was wrong. Though really close! This is Abraham Lincoln's right eye from the Lincoln Memeorial in Washington D.C. A great BIG picture that should be close enough can be found at: http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/~tskirvin/pics/trips/DC-2006/Monuments-2006.02.25/img_2897.jpg Sorry for guess #2, but I have to leave this quarter of fantastic challenges with a clear conscious. Porter, you have done a great job with these challenges, and other than a couple easy ones, and the Britney shaved head debacle, this has been a LOT of fun for me. I am really looking forward to future challenges. I knew that I would find it eventually. Not the exact picture, but enough to convince me that my first guess was wrong. Though really close!

I know it is a risk, but I have to stop thinking about this and get back to work. My guess is: George Washington's eye from Mount Rushmore. There. Now leave me alone so I can go slowly insane at work! All right, I am going to take my guess WITHOUT having found the specific source image.
