CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #520

[EricH]

JVN wishes his presence had the effect his cutout does.

[cgmv123]

Coming soon: Special no-tip-over fishing line. For the low, low price of $111.71!

[dodar]

Man, Flat Stanley is having a much different effect on the youth than he did 50 years ago.

[rsisk]

Just what is the exchange rate between US Motivator and Canadian Motivator?

[Al Skierkiewicz]

Great product! Is it dishwasher safe?

[Wayne Doenges]

Are you tired of that ole black and white JVN Motivator?
Introducing the new and improved HD 1080p JVN color Motivator. It has 10 times the presence and 20 times the fear factor of the old Motivator.
The cost is an amazing $1501.01. That's right! Only $1501.01.
Get yours NOW!

[GaryVoshol]

For this Grant spent so many years getting a degree and working internships?

[DonRotolo]

JVN just wishes he was that thin. And light. And effective.

[NPOE: Wow, a whole year gone by already? Time flies.[/NPOE]

[Jim Wilks]

If the 2D motivator is starting to wear thin, then consider moving up next to the ultimate upgrade -- the full color 3D motivator. So lifelike that students might think it is be real. And it talks, although non FIRST folks might not understand it. Available for only $148 per hour, but truly priceless!!!

[Billfred]

In my defense, I haven't been back in South Carolina for 24 hours yet.
