Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #623

[Not an entry]OMG is this the penultimate contest of year 12 of the competition? Ho-lee cow, that's a long time, even in Billfred years*. I am sure nobody ever thought it would go this far.

*From what I hear, a Billfred minute is about 10 minutes to the rest of us, as in when he tells a student "you should be able to get that done in maybe 5 minutes" and it takes almost an hour. I don't have enough data to get the value to more than 1 significant digit. So that means the contest is about 120 years old, give or take.
[end of non entry]

[also-non-entry]Unless those Billfred years work the other way. Perhaps Billfred thinks it should only have taken CD a year and a few months to get this far. By a curious coincidence, my first caption contest entry was last February. [/also-non-entry]

Um, yeah, I got the numerator and denominator mixed up. That explains the real reason judging is Saturday night and the results are posted on a Tuesday. That much time has passed (in Billfred seconds) just for him to type in the new scores and make a post. That also helps explain his driving almost 60,000 miles in about a week and a half. I think.[/a-a-n-e]

His use of a compressor backpack with plastic air tanks started an intense debate that almost brought the Regional Planning Committee to tears.
