Circumstances mean I will need to pass judgement by late afternoon my time, however many captions there are. I knew it was possible and probably should have deferred to Jaundiced Eye right from the start. I did consider it. ID: 1876179 ·

I will have to decline the win. Life stepped in the way. Grandmother is in the hospital and they are talking about doing a spinal corrective surgery tomorrow if possible. She's 86 but the doctor said what he wanted to do to her L1 vertebra is a simple procedure. Something about putting a balloon in her spine and using it expand the breaks to be able to use a cement like compound to glue the bone back together. But her T cell count is up from 14 to 30. And she has a infection of some kind. So plans are touch and go. So Paul. You get the win this round. So will someone pm him. Have to go. Cell coverage is spotty where I am staying out of state.

Honorable mention to Carlos for at least trying for two places... Third Place goes to Lynn for: "Credit and Debit Cards Gladly Accepted." They are, Lynn - that's what the slot is for... Second Place goes to the Admiral for: "Time charities." And First Place and next photo goes to Carlos for: "Mechanical Panhandler." As always, a PM will go to Carlos as soon as I post this missive... BTW, the "meter" in question is in San Diego, at the America Plaza San Diego Trolley station. Take it away, Carlos! . Hello, from Albany, CA!... ID: 1877479 ·
