CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS!

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS! Tough choice this week, but we do have a winner! But first, the Honorable Mentions: two from Darren Grabowski: "Spontaneous combustion happens quite a bit when I'm cooking." and "This is the latest recipe from my newest self-help cookbook, Diet by Fire."; two from Jay Marsh: "Another reason baritones should not be allowed in the kitchen." and "We've never had someone try to use Posh Spice, Sporty Spice, or Scary Spice before. They really make the dish sing!"; Lynn A Ewing: "My soufflé fell into a burning ring of fire..." and Bear Deardorff: "Chef Wombat responds, 'If you think that looks hot, wait until it passes through you!'"
                                                               
And our illustrious winner this week is Jim Salmen, his first win this year and third overall! Congratulations, Jim!

Thanks to all who entered! New fake picture coming on Monday!

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS!

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS! So many funny entries to choose from!! First, the Honorable Mentions: SGT's Lasolimu: "I really picked the wrong shirt for this event."; two from Darren Grabowski: "In previous adventures, they needed a burglar. Now they need a lawyer, which is essentially the same thing." and "I can't believe I'm standing this close to *the* Si Robertson!" (I never before noticed that Gandalf and Uncle Si have the same beard!); Scott Stogius Maximus Lewis: "One does not simply 'photoshop' into Mordor."; Lisa Lavelle: "Wombat the White elected to stay in Rivendell to teach the Elves about show tunes. The Great Departure soon commenced." Bear Deardorff: "Best man Wombat and the groomsmen show up for Frodo's wedding in their Sunday best and were all smiles -- until the Preacher asked for the ring." and Tim Bird: "And as Wombator was tying his shoes, the Fellowship of the Nine quietly slipped away on their epic quest."
                                                               
And this week's caption, cleverly insulting me based on my back-row position in Vocal Majority, is my VM brother Rick Bivins - his first win this year and second overall! Congratulations, Rick!

CAPTION CONTEST for SEPTEMBER 18!

CAPTION CONTEST for SEPTEMBER 18! Forgive the back-to-back movie pics... I had just looked at the pic from a week ago and thought, "Lord of the Dance... why not Lord of the Rings?!" So that's how my brain works. How would you caption this picture? Comment below! The same pic will show here and on Facebook. I'll repost the pic with my favorite caption on Friday. No prize this week, just the glory of winning!

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS!

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS! First, the Honorable Mentions: SGT's PatchOBlack: "For the first time, the Sorting Hat was stumped. Thus, the House of Wombat was created."; Lisa Lavelle: "Another Weasley!! Oops, a lawyer? Definitely Slytherin!!"; Bryan White: "Divergent!"; Darren Grabowski: "Mr. Randall, we have told you time and time again, this school is for children! And not for those who act like them!"; and Scott Stogius Maximus Lewis: "At his age, Wombat didn't care about being assigned to a 'house.' He just wanted to keep the talking hat."
                                                               
And -- with his very first win -- this week's champion is fellow church-tech-guy and Baylor Bear Larry Lozuk! Congratulations, Larry! (I think VM auditions are going to start using a sorting hat soon.)

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS!

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS! Wow... for a picture that seemed to give a lot of you nightmares, there were a ton of funny captions to choose from -- and two of you scored multiple hits! First, the Honorable Mentions: Don Kistler: "My chest is no less fake than anyone else's on this stage!"; Trent Blackley: "Even after forgetting his bustier, Wombat courageously continued the show. The Porter Wagoner jacket would have to do."; Bill Carleton: "Just one example of a dream Bill Carleton has when he accidentally takes his daughter's sleep medication."; two Honorable Mentions to Scott Stogius Maximus Lewis: "Wombat auditions for the new Jim Clancy arrangement of 'Old Man Riverdance'"; and "'Wombat Fit the Battle of Jericho' was never a crowd hit, despite Wombat's best efforts and dancing prowess."; and three Honorable Mentions to Jay Marsh: "Wombat realizes why the hands are always in the hips as he desperately tries to hold up his pants."; "If they only had a dress in his size, Wombat's fantasy would have been realized." and "Just before he passed out, Wombat tried to remember the moment Fred double dared him, and why he accepted."

And as if two Honorable Mentions weren't enough, this week's winning caption comes from Scott Stogius Maximus Lewis! (Have I mentioned you can enter as many times as you like?) Congratulations, Scott, on your third win this year and seventh overall!
