And, since this is the 45th caption contest, I figured I had to pick a picture of one of the most legendary 45ers out there:

As always, the deadline is midnight Saturday.

Go!!

(don't feel bad, Andy--I'll find a worse picture of me when we hit contest number 1,293. of course, that'll be around 2029.)

Before his more conservative work at Delphi and TechnoKats, Andy was refered to "Andrea- Queen of the Drive Systems".

In 2002, during a mid-life crisis, Andy decided to chase his childhood dream of being an exotic dancer. Obviously, the plan failed miserably

After Andy's failed attempt to get on Survivor, his team thought it would cheer him up to nominate him for Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. Good luck Andy.

Before his stint as a Ozzy Kamen, Andy Baker experiemented with impersonating pop stars , going as far as costumes. Unfortunately, as most agreed, Andy Baker does not do a good Cher impression.

Andy tried as hard as he could to get the band to play "Just A Girl" at the DS&TKB concert, but he just couldn't quite convince them that he could pull off the Gwen Stefani impersonation.

Feeling a bit nostalgic and a lot inebriated, Jared Fogle gaily prances about at a local boozery with a size 60 feather-covered belt, revealing that not only did he weigh 425 pounds before the Subway Diet changed his life, he also used to be a female night club dancer named Jade.

Budweiser announced a new strategy for their "Know when to say when" campaign: When this guy starts to look good to you, it's definitely time to say "when".

[not part of entry] You'd think someone as smart as Andy would know better than to have his picture taken with a pink boa. That's nearly as stupid as letting someone take a picture of you with a Barbie doll [/not part of entry]

Throughout his life Andy Baker tried to start several bands. Before he hit up on the idea of DS&KB he tried a stint as Wierd Al. Luckily for us, it failed and DS&KB was formed.

Believe it or not, before 45's drive team was known as "Long-haired Andy and the TechnoKats," they were known as "Short-haired Andy and the TechnoKats."

Andy's 33rd birthday celebrations got off to a great start when the TechnoKats gave him a pink boa and proclaimed him queen of robotics. Unfortuneately he lost the crown as he had no money for the casinos....

I don't care if it is two am. There's no way I'm even making eye contact with whoever that is, let alone asking for spare gear box parts. Honestly, I'd rather have a robot that doesn't move at all!

I'm sorry, but Andy is not allowed to enter this blantant plagarism into the Unofficial Caption Contest -- UNLESS he absolutely guarantees that DS&TKB will perform "Lola" at IRI with himself in full, original costume as documented in the subject photo! If that condition is met, then I would move to accept by acclimation Andy as the winner of this week's contest.

<not an entry> Great. Baker and Lavery just ruined the Kinks forever for me. These darn images are going to cause nightmares. Maybe I need to call my therapist. Besides, the best Kinks tune ever is Ape Man. Get the band to play that one and I'll travel anywhere to see it. Lola was overplayed. </not an entry>

Lola

I've seen Neil Young five times and have collected most of his work. Old Man works, but Powderfinger, Cinnamon Girl, and Down by the River are better in my book.

Here are the Apeman details:

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #45

Congratulations, page three posters (well, most of you) for talking Greek to me. (Now I'm going to have to do some research at the record store with all that birthday cash.)

As for Dave's complaint against Andy, I went all the way back to Caption Contest #1 and dug out the rules...

Now, one can make the case that applying external media to the caption contest can be done in an original manner. So the entry is fair game.

That said, first place goes to...
