Week 8 winner!

WOW – I just can never tell what pictures will get you all worked up, but there were a flood of entries for this week’s Iditarod-themed contest! This week’s winner is my Vocal Majority brother G Scott Lewis, his second win of this year! Congratulations, Scott!
Honorable Mentions: Lisa Lavelle: "I thought the 'FROZEN' adventure by Disney would be a little different...."; Joel Bezaire: "Hey, look, it's the Idiot-arod."; Stupid Guest Trick's Zazu: "The Iditarod's new non-discrimination policy didn't work out quite the way it was intended."; and from Bill Carleton, a VM inside joke that I’m not going to even try to explain… but it’s funny to us: "He's been sledding across the sea, we've been waiting so anxiously, hoping and praying for word that he's returning from o'er the tundra..." 
Thanks to all who entered! New picture coming Monday!

2014 Caption Contest - Week 8


2014 CAPTION CONTEST, Week 8. This week’s pic idea comes from the great Steve Stripling, a very funny guy who actually commutes from Alaska to sing in the Vocal Majority – if you haven’t seen his "musical hands" video, you haven’t really experienced all that life has to offer! The Iditarod starts on Saturday, and well, this is my take on it. (BTW, I’m pretty sure Steve pictured me DRIVING the sled.) The same pic will show here and on Facebook. I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. No prize this week, other than the glory/infamy of being chosen.

Drive!!"; G Scott Lewis: "Wombat proves once and for all that he is NOT a vampire."; Don Kistler: "Objects in mirror are much creepier than they appear."; and SGT’s Zazu: "Marsupials are social animals with few bad habits, the tendency of wombats to tailgate notwithstanding."
