CAPTION CONTEST for OCTOBER 30!

CAPTION CONTEST for OCTOBER 30! Yeah, the obvious caption is "Heeeere's Wombat!" so you're all going to have to dig a little deeper than that. 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! Well, those of you who could get past my defiling the memory of the Beatles came up with some really funny captions! Here are the Honorable Mentions: Alan AJ Irby: "Although Wombat didn't make it past the dress rehearsal for the Ed Sullivan show, he was immortalized forever the following year, albeit anonymously, with Bob Dylan's 'Mr. Tambourine Man.'"; Sam Wilson: "Little known footnote to pop music history: Critics thought the Beatles had a lot of potential and might have made it really big, but after adding a fifth member and changing their name to 'The Wombats' they disappeared from the public eye."; Kelly Zink: "Providing the inspiration for the original lyric, 'I am the egg-man, they are the egg-men, I am the Wombat,' only to be replaced by a more menacing sea creature."; Jerry Andrews: "Wombat's tambourine taps on beats 1 and 3 lead to such a quick departure, history never recognized him as one of the 5th members of the Beatles."; and Lisa Lavelle: "...and the Tales of Baron Von Wombat get taller and taller."

                                                                          

And the caption that won, not only because it cracked me up the most but also because it allows me to sneak in some heavy-duty parental bragging, comes from my elder son Brandon Randall, who is just today finishing up his first professional concert tour, as a lighting tech for Paul McCartney! Congratulations on your first win, Brandon!

First, the Honorable Mentions: Jay Marsh: "Her last comment was about her cheap date and the scrawny mum...."; Marty Senstock: "Dammit, Jim! I'm not a florist, I'm a doctor... err, lawyer!"; Bret Morris: "She had an abusive mum. This will be an easy court case."; Scott Stogius Maximus Lewis: "Wombat takes emergency classes on 'How to pin on a mum without those uncomfortable touches' as part of a new city awareness training."; and Tim Bird (so close to a third win in a row!): "Despite his gallant effort, Wombat just couldn't play 'she loves me, she loves me not' fast enough to save the poor girl."

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS!

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS! I usually avoid politics, but this late entry was perfect. (I am a little surprised no one went with something related to "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor"!) On to the Honorable Mentions: Jim Salmen: "Yes, Mr. Brown, psychiatric help is 5 cents. Legal help, on the other hand, is $250.00 an hour."; Stupid Guest Tricks' Zazu: "Give me a chance! Could my advice be all that much worse than Lucy's?"; Brooks Harkey: "You get your money's worth on psychiatric help from Wombat."; Tom Jackson: "What do you mean 'crazy'? You're the one who talks to his dog…"; and Melissa Dugan Selters: "The moment when Charlie Brown realizes there is someone worse off than him."

                                                               

And after winning for the first time just last week, the top caption once again comes from my VM bro Tim Bird! (Will there be a threepeat???) Congratulations, Tim!
