John finally realizes there is only one place to escape the JVN copies: IN SPACE.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

Despite Laverey's promises John found space to be quite less interesting than Dave had been telling him.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

Houston: “ John, sorry for the computer delays, you can proceed with the space shuttle repairs now.”

JVN: “zzzzzz”

Houston, “John, John?”

JVN, “zzzzzz”

Houston, “…. get out the Paul McCartney music again.”

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

DJ Fluck: Will the Real JVN please stand up,please stand up ?
Billfred: Really DJ. what's up with all this rap? Don't make me feature you in the caption contest , AGAIN!

(For those who don't get the joke, read Heidi Foster's entry)

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

When he was growing up, John was told by his parents that he could be anything he wanted to be as long as he had crayons, paper, and a good imagination.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

Dang! Why is it that every time the opportunity really presents itself, you never have a nice big cream pie handy to throw?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

JVN zzz zzz-"this astronaut stuff is too easy. When can i take over Dave's job?"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

John: Time to take a break from Paul and do Yooooggaaaaaa. :]

In Space No One Can Here You Lecture About Drive Systems

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

As John takes a break from testing IFI's new waterproof zero-gee total-vacuum speed controllers, he's spotted on by one of NASA's new web cams mounted on their shuttle fleet. Shortly after this, Dave had to redesign this year's game after finding out that while JVN had slept on duty, a hatch was left open and the only copy of the top secret blueprints drifted out and burned up upon reentry of Earth's atmosphere.

I know Dean's homework was to spread the message about FIRST but I don't remember anyone saying we had a Vex tournament scheduled for space! Lavery, what have you been up to???

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

With his first high school reunion fast approaching, John desperately tried to come up with ways of backing up his claims about his "successful" career.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

*Singing* I'm an astronaut going suuurfin'...
Surfin' over the USAAAAAA...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

Even the simulation of being weigthless causes John's stomach to flip. Somebody get a bucket, quick!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

Take one: Every since he was a kid, all John wanted to do was take up space!

Take two: This is your NASA eye in the sky with the 9AM traffic report. I see heavy traffic in New York Boston Albany Syracuse Rochester Buffalo Pittsburgh Philadelphia [inhales........] Baltimore Washington Norfolk...

Take three: [Don Knots voice] we are now passing over Hawaii. Our retro rockets will fire in ten, nine, eight...

Take four: Space suit, check! Cinder Block, check! GPS Coordinates for Billfred's house, check!

Take Five: [John] This is me, when I was in space!
[HS freshman] That is the worse photoshop cut and paste Ive ever seen!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

Hey! I can see my house from here. Hope I turned off the lights before I left.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

When IFI offered JVN the "job of his dreams", John accepted without hesitation. He forgot to take into account that Tony is a controls guy, and their dreams tend to be slightly different.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

JVN does not need a helmet. You see, his head is shiny enough to blind the sun without one.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

...Space Oddity

(...with apologies to David Bowie)

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

Houston: "John... John..."
John: "zzzzzz.."
Houston: "John this isn't the office we actually have work to do."

Sorry John.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

John: "In astronaut camp i get this picture taking and it will be put up in a caption contest AND i get to be made fun of!!! Is it a good idea or what???" :D :D :D

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

"Now that he's in space he can now have the peace and quiet every man truely diserves... he can also catch up on his knitting"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

Neun, never really having much of a childhood after being forced to build tedious mechanisms during his younger years, is always seen trying to make up for it in his adult life. In a rare montague captured by CNN media crews, John comforts himself to sleep at his home, in a custom built AstroActionNaut suit.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

John: "I reeeaaalllly have to go!"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

JVN: I don't believe that Lavery has cars on mars! So, I'm going to find em!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

JVN: This is JVN to IFI are you there?
*crickets*

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

Jealous of Andy-Mark's newest monopoly over the robotic parts market - this time, in outer space (Andy having just formed a joint venture with his new Chief Logistics Manager Dave Lavery to sell A-M products on Mars), IFI sent JVN to the Moon to try and save face. Tony was at least hoping to drum up some business and minimize the number of times he had to endure the "Innovation Second" jokes among his peers. Unfortunately, the Moon Men were not impressed by John's sales skills and sent him packing for Earth...without a spaceship. Here we see JVN as his oxygen is about to run out. Lucky for him, a Space Shuttle with a big "Andy-Mark Inside" logo appeared to rescue him and return him to his life of beer-opening robots and not much else.

The End.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #74
 

Just a hint of warning: My iBook is acting up a bit, so results and such might be awkward this week. I'll figure it out somehow.

Alright, here's the story.

My iBook is currently out of commission. It's going out tomorrow, and according to Apple should be back within 5-7 days. Everything is backed up, but I don't want to fiddle with the backup while the laptop is gone. So I'm going to judge and post the contests, but I won't be updating the scores until I get it back. (Do it right or do it twice, as they say.)

First place goes to:
