Well, I've survived the 30-something-hour trip to Maine (alright, it's really only 20 or so, but I gave myself a nice layover in NYC), and am finally getting into the swing of things up here.
With that said, since I did fudge the deadline this week, I suppose it's time for an additional rule...

While Billfred says the deadline is at a certain point in time, there is inevitably a span of time between that deadline and when he actually sits down to judge the contest. If you can get an entry in during that span of time, lucky you.

With that said, first place goes to:

Kid 1: Uh, Dave, aren't your false teeth kinda important for things like eating and such?
Dave: Don't you worry, sonny. NASA paid for me to have a set of gold teeth made - they'll really help me complete my pimp look, yo. Now run along - Grandpa Lavery has some work to do.....*removes teeth, accidentally drops them into robot*. Well, shoooot!
Kid 2, looking into robot: Uh, Dave, your dentures are stuck in Charlene's right drivetrain gearbox.
Dave: So they are! I reckon you'll reach down in there and pluck 'em out; my arthritis is actin' up.
Kid 2: Uh, um, I can't....I'm allergic to grease. *Whispering to Kid 1* Quick, go get Sean and tell him his dad is having one of his episodes again!

"Oh man Dave, not with the Mars crap again. Can you please go see if Dean needs you to guest speak somewhere that requires you to get on his jet, now?"
"Do you little punks have any clue what I do every day?"
"Yes Dave, you're an administrator. Now, go back to your office and work on the budget. We'll let you know when to come back here and take all of the credit."
