Photo Caption Contest

So, here's how this works: I'm gonna put up a picture, and hopefully some folks will make up some funny captions for it. Then I get to pick the the one that makes me laugh the most and that person wins and gets to put up the next picture and pick the next winner, and so on and so on. Here's the first picture:



As an example, my caption might be:

I just got this adapter so my Mac can talk to your PC!

Here's my caption:

We've had to disconnect this radar dish because we discovered that spammers were using it to broadcast spam to other galaxies.

Here's my caption:

"Um...and that book said the little blue wire should connect with the little green wire first, then the big yellow wire with the big orange wire, and the white wire with the...shoot...one of these copper wires over here...damnit, I knew I shouldn't have left that manual at home today."

here's my caption:

the damn cable company is changing the cable again? How am I going to hide this ugly thing?

(Digital just isn't good enough and this on demand viewing requires alot of cable capacity. )

PS don't pick me, I don't have a cute picture. Just thought I would play.

"Sheldon said that if I find the the sea foam and wheat straw colored wires, splice them on the bias, Social Wave will then run OK on my iMac..."

Photo of man who tried out for the role of Willy Wonka and accidentally showed up at Michael Jackson's trial instead.

Rogain overdose

Their retirement plans destroyed by the drop in the stock market, Mr. and Mrs. Jones saw the writing on the wall with the Bush Administration's changes to the Social Security system: it was time to return to work. Luckily, Mr. Jones's extensive training at world-renowned labs specializing in explosives and weapons of mass destruction enabled him to join a federal government "return to work" education program at the local beautician school.

Since I dropped the ball, I will try to be only so-so funny.

"Sheldon, the founder of Social Wave -- listening to a focus group discussing bug reports (and especially feature requests) -- is inwardly horrified, but convinced he is projecting a calm demeanor"

PS: I tried to keep Sheldon out of the joke, I really did try...

Sadly, the effects were permanent as his charred finger never properly healed, either.
