Call in to the Gary Parrish show to claim your prize. Odds are your prize will be a fun game of ‘pretending you didn’t win a prize and cursing memphisport.net for saying you won one.’

The year: 2011. From out of space comes a runaway planet, hurtling between the Earth and the Moon, unleashing cosmic destruction! Man’s civilization is cast in ruin! Earth is reborn… A strange new world rises from the old: a world of savagery, super science, and sorcery. But one man bursts his bonds to fight for justice! He pits his strength, his courage, and his fabulous Sunsword against the forces of evil. He is…
Just what is a personality? Mae West once said, “Personality is the glitter that sends your little gleam across the footlights and the orchestra pit into that big black space where the audience is.” Well Chris Vernon must have a lot of glitter, more than Mariah Carey in her sparkling movie debut. More than even Tinkerbell might ever hope to possess. One has to wonder if Vernon holds more glitter than the late famed Liberace. He has won this award an astounding five years straight. Maybe he should be renamed Chris Glitter from this day forth. Congrats Mr. Glitter, once again.
