Let the Games Begin: Caption Contest

The five finalists for the Write Your Own Caption contest are:

Colleen with:
"mmmm....gummy worms! *sniff* that smells funny....guess I'll give it to mommy to eat. Lellow ones are her favorites anyways."

Danielle with:
"I can't eat this...I like grass...and I think I like this...but I don't like this if it was touching the grass!"

Brian with:
"Dammit, the dog peed on this one, too? I hate that dog."

Flea with:
(Voice over in documentary)
" ... and the domesticated toddler inspects the foliage carefully. Notice that she uses the sense of sight and smell to evaluate the properties, attempting to determine its genus and origin prior to opening her field guide ..."

and Kimmjo with:
"Hmmmm wonder which dog would eat you . . ."

You have until Monday, July 28th at 9:00 pm Burgh time to vote for your favorite. Campaigning for votes is totally recommended and if you can figure out a way to cheat, knock yourself out. Oh, and if you don't like the picks? Blame Mr. Husband. I had absolutely positively nothing to do with it as I was in the kitchen pretending that I'm not domestically challenged. It's quite an act I put on.

Haven't voted yet. I am totally open to bribery for my vote. And even making up names to vote more than once...

July 26, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterKelley

*sniff* I've been nominated! It's such an honor!

And apparently the wad of small, unmarked bills I overnighted to Mr. Husband worked.


(and really? he didn't go for the green bean comment from Kim? I'm surprised!)

The vote? They are all good, and though it was a hard to pick, I gotta say, FLEA is a genius.

The photographer? Also a genius.

The subject? Priceless.

It's like high school all over again, except this time it's not "Most Likely to Fall Under a Bus and Die". Awesome.

I don't have a blog, so i cant beg for votes. I don't even really want to win. Although if i did i'd tell you to take the baby to starbucks!

I found your blog about 6 mos ago, somehow, and spent the afternoon reading thru your archives, laughing, giggling and peeing myself. I think you hooked me cause i feel like your close. (i'm down rt 22 e about 60 min from pitts).

Then I saw the segment with you on channel 4. you looked real! Your now the first thing I read when I get to work!

Thank you so much for sharing your world.
