"Mutated by a freak high school chem lab experiment involving sulfuric acid and Mountain Dew, Pedro's Wacky Wall Walker was quick to exact revenge against his human captor."

By the way, I think Kellogg's should pay us for all the free advertising they're getting for their products on Chief Delphi....

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #11

Alright, time for another fun posting of results.

As a reminder, the deadline is 9:00 PM according to the forums. Anything posted after then will be ignored. (Ask the folks here at USC: I can be very good at selective hearing.)

So, for first place...

Second place goes to...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #11

Hey, I didn't get my 2 HM points; I had 16 points after contest #10 so I should have 18 now I think (is HM 2 or 1?, I forget).

C'mon BillFred - I have so little to live for; this contest is the only thing that gives my life meaning until Build Season starts. Those 2 points push me ahead of the rapier wit of Andy Baker and Dave Lavery, if even only for one week. I can just hear them telling everyone now...." Hey, I'm funnier than Gary Dillard", "Sure Gary's funny, but I'm kicking his butt in the caption contest".

It does, however, sadden me that those extra points will pull me out of a tie with JVN; his caption was truly worthy of victory this week, and I know he'll be crushed to find out that he hasn't quite achieved my point level. JVN - you had probably already updated your resume but you'll have to wait yet another week.

Just two other things, for the record:
1) Honorable mentions are worth two, unless I say otherwise.
2) It's just Billfred. No extra capitalization or anything like that is required.

Alright, now until Sunday...

Gary,
Seriously man... we even threw a party to celebrate.
Then POOF, they awarded victory to Dillard.

I think I should demand a recount.
You Floridians do weird things with voting.
How did you count hanging chads?

Ohh well... I guess I'll just wait 4 more years.

Seriously though.
Being tied with the Pig Farmer is bad enough, but the Astro-dork is still beating me?

The most important thing is that I'm beating Amanda Morrison.

Until next week folks...
When I shall run again.

JohnnyV

edit:
Due to confusion, I'll clarify... Astro-dork = Lavery.
That is all.
/edit.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #11

Hey Billfred - any chance you can post next week's picture early? I already missed one week with my internet access down from hurricane Frances, and I expect to lose power in a few hours from hurricane Jeanne. These people are vultures - just waiting for any advantage they can seize. Throw me a rope, PLEASE
