> here ya go folks - THIS is the actual Picture ;))




Yep....that's the actual picture alright. The reason I cut it was because there was already a caption on it and I wanted people to come up with their own and not have an idea pop into their heads because of the caption that was on it.

Message 774134 - Posted: 27 Jun 2008, 3:30:35 UTC

OK folks....time to announce the winner...

I have two Honorable Mentions...

Angela with " It got to the point where video poker just wasn't a challenge for me anymore...". I got quite a giggle out of that one for some reason.

The other goes to Rebest with " A human needed 19 seconds to figure this out?
Pathetic! "

Those two were good....but the one that made me just bust out laughing is....* drumroll *...

Mumps with " This would be soooo much easier with opposable thumbs..."

Take it away Mumps. Let's see what ya got.

Hmm. It seems my edict on the captions didn't make it to post. So before this thread drops off the front page, I'll try again.

For the longest time, I was leaning towards littlegreenmanfrom with:
The ever increasing cost of the space shuttle forces NASA to payload test some cheaper options.

But rebest with the late entry:
Now that's what I call a 'center of gravity'.

really got me chuckling.

Honorable mentions also go to Angela and John McLeod VII.

Take it away rebest!

I KNOW I did not order a bath. As soon as I get out of here, I am going to go leave a present in one of her best shoes. Then I am going to go chew up a slipper. I HATE baths.
