CAPTION CONTEST for DECEMBER 4!

CAPTION CONTEST for DECEMBER 4! But first an announcement -- I'll likely be shutting down the Wombat Caption Contest at the end of the year, at least as a regular, weekly occurrence. It's been a good run of three years, but I want to call it quits before I burn out or start repeating myself. I'll probably put a picture up to caption every now and then, but just not every week.

So, if you can choke back the tears... 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, just the glory of winning!

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS!

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS! First, your Honorable Mentions: Eric Abrams: "No, I didn't slip anything into this pizza. And no, we're not about to steal all your land. Trust me, I'm a lawyer!"; Kevin Kavanagh: "It's not delivery, it's da Wombat."; Tim Bird: "Having taken an extra-long drag from the natives' peace pipe, Wombat secured the best option he could think of to satisfy the resulting munchies."; Brooks Harkey: "Since inventing it in 1621, Wombat has found that a steady diet of pizza has kept him looking much younger than his actual age."; and Scott Stogius Maximus Lewis: "The natives showed the white man how to raise corn. Wombat showed the natives how to raise their cholesterol."

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS!

CAPTION CONTEST RESULTS! Is it bad that I've always wanted to insert myself into this scene from Singin' in the Rain, one of my all-time favorite movies? First, your Honorable Mentions: Lara Beilby: "So this is where the tunnel lets me out! Hi!"; Cory Church: "TaaDaa!! And that is how you make a proper 'Ah' vowel, Mr Martinez!" (inside joke for VM members or anyone who's had vocal coaching from Eddie Martinez); Alan AJ Irby: "As in all things in life, it's what's on the inside that counts."; Jim Salmen: "With his son's college expenses going up, Wombat had to take some side-jobs."; Doug Hook: "Brandon used his industry contacts to get the old man his first paying gig."; Brooks Harkey: "The caterer's price for 'Bunny' to pop out of the cake was too high, so instead they got a Wombat."; and Lynn A Ewing: "Surprise! Here's a subpoena for you and a subpoena for you, you all get subpoenas!!!!!!!!!"
