As always, the deadline is nominally Saturday at midnight Eastern. I'll be in Atlanta this Friday and Saturday for the Championship, largely with 1398 on Curie. As usual, I'll accept entries in person (though written-down ones are more likely to be remembered, and thus counted).

Go!

James spotted the rogue robot only a split-second before it jumped on him. He narrowly escaped by hitting the main disconnect switch...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #301

Everyone,

Sorry about the delay in getting this one judged--apparently my after-Championship dinner choice was a lousy one, as I spent most of Sunday in bed with a mild bout of food poisoning. I'm feeling a good bit better today, and hope to have results up this evening. While not a case of Billfred Is Working Way Too Much, I'm going to invoke the similarly-applied Billfred Is Throwing Up Way Too Much Rule.
