Your Name Here- Now Even More Winnerishly Improved!
A contest! A contest!
That's right, the first ever caption contest here at The Cheese, and it's all because of my newfound complete and utter certainty that it's all bullshit understanding of our upcoming election....
I'll give you a lovely picture, crafted by our local photoshop artiste Bob, and you all have five days to give me a great caption. The winner will get... um.... whatever I found in the regifting box under the bed a wonderful prize.
So open the extended entry, take a gander, leave a goose, and put your caption in the comments.
This post will stay at the top until the contest is over, at which time it will sink back into the mists of obscurity, so if you want to be famous as a great wit, you'd best get to captioning pretty quick. Just remember the box under the bed filled with crap I get at Xmas that I had zero use for PRIZE!
UPDATE: Yes, I know, but better late than never, eh? But we have a winner, and that winner is........
I truly apologize for the delay, but our lovely munu server was being upgraded to heroic proportions and for a while no posting was available. Thank you to everyone who played along at home, and don't forget to tip your waitresses. Oh, and the new caption contest should be up shortly. Yes, I realize you've come to understand "shortly" to me means "within the next century."
Picky picky picky.
JFK lives!

Posted by: Jeff at February 15, 2004 09:25 AMWhat Kerry's thinking: "Goody! Goody! Goody! Lily, Grampa, Eddie, get Marilyn and Spot - we're going to D.C.!"
What the U.S. is thinking: Don't give up your job at the funeral parlor, dude.

Posted by: jim at February 15, 2004 01:24 PMWe have proof that there is no truth to the intern rumor.

Posted by: Teresa at February 15, 2004 02:01 PMmy cosmetic surgery was performed by a vermont doctor with a new york senator assisting, but let's stick to real campaign issues or this press conference is over.

Posted by: Rob at February 15, 2004 08:05 PMMr. Gambini, did you say Utes?
Posted by: Genuine at February 15, 2004 08:55 PMDid I mention that when I was in VIETNAM (I was there, you know), I swallowed a couple bolts. Does it show?

Posted by: Claire at February 16, 2004 07:12 PMBeing kept alive with only nuts, bolts and botoxin, three hundred years later, John Kerry continues to chant, "I was a war hero in Vietnam."
Posted by: Serenity at February 16, 2004 08:57 PMDoes this coat make me look presidential?
Posted by: Serenity at February 16, 2004 09:01 PMIn a desperate attempt to build street cred, Kerry tried piercings and scarring, but decided against the dreads.
Posted by: Ted at February 17, 2004 06:24 AMYou guys are killing me here. I'm going to have to find a good prize if this keeps up.
Posted by: LeeAnn at February 17, 2004 06:53 AMScarey Kerry
Posted by: Frank Lee at February 17, 2004 09:10 AMstill pandering for the minority votes, Kerry tells the press, ..."You'll all be happy to know that since my surgery, I'm now part Mexican, part Chinese, part Indian, part Jew, you name it... Don't worry, the surgeon said these scars will fade....oh, and guess which part is Black?!"
...Mrs. Kerry was unavailable for comment....
Posted by: eric at February 17, 2004 11:36 AMRead my lips. There has been no tampering with the election.
Posted by: nodus at February 17, 2004 03:52 PM"There was no intern, I was never near the well, and there was no cigar. No."

Posted by: xade at February 17, 2004 05:00 PMIs it too late to add a "Rooaaarrr" to the end of my last entry...
We're going to DC, Then we're going to Milwaukee, then we're going to Transylvania... Rooaaarrr
Posted by: xade at February 17, 2004 05:03 PMOoooh, yeah, I'm one HOT looking guy.
Posted by: xade at February 17, 2004 05:04 PMVote Kerry - Just look at me, I got no chance with them interns.
Posted by: xade at February 17, 2004 05:04 PMJohn Kerry, a Vietnam War veteran, was wounded 3 times, but Navy doctors were easily able to repair the damage. Kerry stated all of his wounds were minor.
Posted by: Teresa at February 17, 2004 05:33 PMMe, President? OhGoodyOhGoodyOhGoodyOhGoody.
Posted by: xade at February 17, 2004 05:59 PM"It was not my intention that it go as far as it did.", said Kerry concerning his recent wardrobe malfunction. "I apologize to anyone offended -- including the audience, MTV, CBS and the NFL."

Posted by: Larry at February 18, 2004 11:42 AMDamn, this election is really messin' with my head!
Posted by: Tiger at February 18, 2004 05:27 PMI promise total disarmament. Fire baaaaad.
Posted by: Da Goddess at February 18, 2004 07:04 PMA pretty mouth. A flat head. If he was shorter, he'd be lobbyist's dream come true.
Posted by: TonyP at February 18, 2004 07:11 PMI don't know what's more tedious: one of my campaign speeches, or caption contests that last longer than a drive across country on a tricycle.
Sheesh.
Posted by: Jeff at February 20, 2004 10:54 AMreally!! just give out the prize to someone less deserving than me, and let's move on.
Posted by: jim at February 20, 2004 11:37 AMAnd isn't that just like a man... wanting to rush a thing along rather than savor it, extend it, squeeze the last little drop of fun from it....
Nah, you just want me to announce the winner fast fast fast so you can roll over and go to sleep.
haha.."squeeze the last drop of fun from it"...like there's not more where that came from!
have a great weekend :)
Posted by: jim at February 20, 2004 01:26 PMI don't get it. Who or what is a "Ute", and who is Mr. Gambini?
I'll just pretend this one won: In a desperate attempt to build street cred, Kerry tried piercings and scarring, but decided against the dreads.
Posted by: Susie at February 21, 2004 01:06 PMIt's from the movie "My Cousin Vinny," when Fred Gwynne (sp?), who played Herman Munster and who played a judge in the movie, "My Cousin Vinny, questioned the manner in which Joe Pesci ("My Cousin Vinny" da lawyer) referred to "youths" as "yoots" or "Utes."
It took me a minute to get it.
Posted by: Parkway Rest Stop at February 21, 2004 01:11 PMLOL - I got it right away, My Cousin Vinny is one of my favorite movies. I even bought it because I watch it whenever I need to laugh. There are so many many funny things in there.
Unless you've seen the movie though, the line would be completely lost on you. So, this means you, who haven't seen it, should all go out and watch it *G*
Posted by: Teresa at February 21, 2004 03:34 PMMy Cousin Vinnie is a great movie. There were tons of great captions. Good job everyone.
Posted by: Ted at February 21, 2004 07:19 PM..dammit, I want a recount!
Posted by: Eric at February 23, 2004 02:47 PMMeanwhile, Eric and Genuine's lawyers argue to the Supreme Court regarding hanging Chad's and the fixing of the election by Republican owned voting machines. Susie wins the election because her lobbyist was paying the largest pork to LeeAnn, causing the rest of the Blog to go to war over a little issue like Toppling the mighty Munster!
Posted by: Genuine at February 23, 2004 08:07 PMI thought since I hang around here a lot - being well hung - that I'd fill in a bit, but don't click it if yer a sissy.
