Well, time's up! I think there were a few more captions waiting in the wings, since this is the first recorded sighting of a car from the rapidly-growing AZM City.

The runner-up is Mumps - a clever invocation of a clerical error with satanic overtones.

The winner, for sheer determination to mention everything in the original in a flowing context, is uli: "Autsch zat mobile and you think I will test drive it? Not until hell freezes over."

Well done and over to you, uli!

Ok, it didn't take me that long, so here we go.




If someone can make the pic larger, please go for it. Doesn't seem to be my specialty.

Good luck to all.

New scientific report shows animal kingdom beginning to follow human policies on polygamy. John Edwards had no comment.
