Contest the Second

Y'know I can't stop at just one contest. That's no fun. So, I present to you the second Halloween contest for this year:


Here's the deal with this one. I'll post a picture, YOU write the caption. (And by "caption," I mean a caption, a thought bubble, a title, whatever text you see fit to apply. I'm not picky.) I'll even post more than one picture, so if one doesn't strike you right away, you can try another.

Now, for some pictures:

Picture 1 by artist Joe Olson:


Picture 2 by artist Kevin Keele:


Picture 3 by...oops. I have no idea where I got this one:


Leave your captions in the comment section, or email them to me.

For each entry you submit, I'll put your name in a drawing for a HALLOWEEN PACKAGE!!! So the more you enter, the better your chances, right? (No limit on number or frequency of entries.)

Oh, and if you want to put a link to this contest in your sidebar of your blog, here is the HTML (don't add it as a picture--add it as HTML or the link and the animation won't work):



Have fun. (And if you haven't submitted an entry for the other contest, do that, too.)

lame thought bubble by me.

This is just a comment on #2. There's a crescent moon and a cross in the background. Just add a Jewish star and you'll have all the witches represented, ya know?

Well, there IS a star just under the tree's branches, but it's just a five-pointed one. Hmm. I hope this blog doesn't get flagged for Anti-Semitism...

Man, I need to think on this...I'm sure I can come up with something brilliant!

#1: Miss, I am going to let you off with a warning this time, but PLEASE! Get your headlamps adjusted at a reputable mechanic next time!

I'm fresh out of clever, Wynne. Maybe you can give me a nice clever transplant from your brain storage for Halloween.

I've got the blues lately, too. I don't know what the heck is wrong with me.

Oooh, I took my oldest to the China Wok fast food restaurant last week and I made up a song that made me laugh. You know that song by The Smithereens called "The Blues Before And After?" Well, the food at China Wok always does a number on us, intestinally speaking. I started singing, "The poops before and after.....I get the poops before and after eating here...."

I bought Edward Gorey Christmas cards at Half-Price books clearance sale. They made me think of you. I also got a Grateful Dead Christmas ornament for our Infidel tree this year. Ching!

Elizabeth-W said...

I just added The Smithereens to my playlist because I hadn't thought about them in so long.
I miss my xm radio....sigh.....

Do you honestly think that if you don't let me comment on the Baaad post I won't come here and make a comment?? Geez! Give me a little credit!

Picture #1:

It's never proper etiquette to threaten and then shove a nighlight into the place where the sun don't shine on your ghost friend when you get into a quarrel.

No, No. Neil Diamond said to Turn on Your Heart Light, not your eye light.

Picture #2:

Meanwhile down at Mean&Green Club, the ladies auxilliary busied themselves gossiping about their favorite Mean&Green celebrities, The Green Goblin and The Jolly Green Giant. (Turns out the Jolly is a misnomer!) They plan to corrupt the Incredible Hulk with a potion soon.......very soon.

Your adopted spider might be dizzy after I spinned her for about 2 minutes.
Sorry.
Hope it doesn't puke all over your blog.

Super Happy Girl said...

#1: Oh my! It's full of stars!
(had to change it a bit, from 2010...no?)
That's all I have for now.
The end.

You may not have allowed comments on the last post but I can always figure out a way to comment. I feel bad because I have been so self absorbed lately and have not been the greatest friend to anyone, including you.

Any how, I know how you feel or at least I think I do. I hate how the doctors tell you not to go off your meds and then they make it impossible to get a refill on your prescription or an appointment to see them.

Maybe you should just camp out in their office and throw all your tantrums at them. I think they would better understand what your and your family have to go through while you are waiting in limbo.

I really hope you get in soon and get it taken care of.

On another note, yesterday I was trying to find Curtis' primary cd (so he can learn the words to the songs for the primary program) and I found the Halloween CD you sent me last year. It was perfect timing. Do you think I can convince the primary board to switch the songs for the program to a more Halloween them?

Any how, I hope you are doing well. We miss you guys. Curtis needs a stop light to go with his car costume again.

Did I win the Wynne Lottery? I must have because a Halloween package arrived yesterday on my doorstep. I haven't opened it yet. melody keeps prancing around the house with it under her arm, begging me to open it. But, I don't want to.

Your shipments are always so clever and so funny, I want to hold out a little bit longer and savor the anticipation of it.

OPEN IT!!!!!!!

Guy Francis! Funny dude! Wynne and I used to work with him -- so that's no doubt how she got the picture...

Picture #1: Loretta noticed that she had more friends when her alien brain implant picked up HBO. Unfortunately it was usually just old episodes of Andy Griffith and Green Acres.
