As always, the deadline is theoretically Saturday at midnight, with judging to follow whenever I have time between coats of paint at my new condo.

Go!

Looks like Miss Daisy stole the Thunderchicken's girlfriend.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

When Miss Daisy's mentors said "dress to impress", I'm not sure they ment this.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

And on the fourth day, the Almighty Peacock said "LET THERE BE ROBOTS". And it was so.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

NBC Peacock:

And my last bit of advice to you, Miss Daisy, is to show your true colors and bloom where you are planted.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Clearly they couldn't get Tracy Morgan a better job at 30 Rock.:cool:

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Peacock singing*:Right now you bet I'm gonna drive this bot here
the reign of Daisy is drawing near
I'll drive the coolest robot here,
and it's gonna be totally awesome

Daisy mascot: "There's a reason giant blue peacocks don't get lead roles in musicals. Just drive the robot already!"


*Begin video at 3:43 for the music to go with this

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Although often unable to get along naturally in the wild, both daisies and peacocks are quite majestic and peaceful species. The world can become a better place if we took the time to learn from those different from ourselves.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

I swear officer! I'm licensed and registered to drive this robot! I'd show you, but the robot stole my info so it could it drive itself, autonomously! Are you buying it yet?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Everyone was suprised when the Elite GDC SWAT team showed up to arrest the peacock for an outstanding <G14> violation.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Peacock: "All right, everyone! I will now do a trick!"
Daisy: "What sort of trick?"
Peacock: "I will make the robot disappear!"
Daisy: "With me watching?"
Peacock: "Yep. Watch closely now... Abracadabra...." *grabs sticks and drives the robot at random bystanders until they run, then hides robot behind his tail* "See, it's gone."
Daisy: "This is really going to be hard to explain to the mentors..."

[I hate puns]

Oy.....Pop Peacock always said there'd be days like this.....

I’ve got a headache THISSSSSSS big - and it’s got this Miss Daisy Safety Captain written all over it. Just where are YOUR safety glasses, you bloomin' hypocrite?


[/I hate puns]

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Yea, our school has a peacock as a student, ya got a problem with dat?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Miss Daisy's driver, seconds before becoming a ThunderChicken.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

I told team 341 to keep their drivers away from the nuclear plants. See what happens when people dont listen!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Honest -- Mr. Sheinhardt Peacock is a pre-college student enrolled in an accredited educational program.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Team #4's mascot was less than happy about the giant peacock poser running about at comps. Why couldn't his costume be that cool?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Good thing it's Virtual NASCAR. You take your hands off the controls like that in real NASCAR, bad things are gonna happen. Bad things, but pretty things, as peacock feathers blanket the whole site.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Those tail feathers better not get caught in the chain... FIRST a la peacock

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Referee: Put your hands in the air and step away from the control sticks. You have been disqualified from the competition for a lack of Gracious Professionalism. You are hereby charged with one count of cockiness and two counts of fowl play.

Now the entry:

Billfred during his 2007 visit to Ambler: Who you callin' Turkey, turkey?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Peacock is the Obama of FIRST
Peacock : Yes We Can!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

team 341 left all others in the dust, not only on the field, but with their new chant: 'ding DING ding'

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Giant peacock: *rams robot into CBS logo* Yeah!

CEO of NBC: *in shock* What the heck are you doing?!

Giant peacock: *rams robot into ABC logo* Take that!

CEO of NBC: That's not what I meant when I said we should "eliminate our competition!"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

A study to determine similarities in the mating habits of large birds and nerds is generating disappointing results.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Now I just need a little help to get me off the ground and I will show you how well I can fly (with) these colors. All I need is a really big, three tone gong.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Team Daisy's current team mascot didn't like being replaced by an over stuffed bird so he decided to put up an "Open Season Peacocks" sign. The rest, is as the say, history.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Professional mentorship in FIRST is not just limited to engineering. Mascots, too, learn by watching the best.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Not an entry:

It's Monday night and we still have no results. I suspect that watching paint dry is one of Billfred's current hobbies, either that or latex paint fumes have gotten to him...

Ah, home ownership (even if it's a condo). A never ending struggle between maintenance, motivation, money and minutes.... I, for one, was elated to hear that Billfred bought his own place: Misery loves company.

Still not an entry.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #268
 

Not paint fumes so much as a bunch of popcorn ceiling dust combined with a chaser of a bug I may have acquired and a dash of no rest. (I'm taking a mental health night tonight--paint comes tomorrow and Wednesday, floors Thursday, the moving men (and lock changing) Friday.) Whoever lumped home ownership in with the American Dream must've hired out a lot of work.

First place goes to:

Awesome, this just made my day.

I'd like to thank everyone that made this award possible. To my producer who was willing to take a chance... ack.... [Giant hook removes poser from stage]
