Vote in last week's caption contest

Well, it's a new week everybody look at what Steve entered in the last contest. If he complains about any of yours, he always leaves his email address for you so you can remind him that his entries are no brighter than anyone else's. Thank you for your continued humor and with any luck, Steve will fall in a big bucket of AIDS.

Interesting, Brian. Congrats to Cleveland Joe. Steve, I continue to try to understand what you were thinking when you posted your captions and how you got that from the picture. I am happy to report that some of you captions are beginning to actually have something to do with the cartoon provided by the tribune! Way to go little buddy! As usual, most of yours belong in the bucket Brian was talking about.

The four best hatching clown captions were, IMHO—(1) "Well HERE's a fine 'how do ya do!'"-- Jack G., Pismo Beach; (2) "I guess anything is possible now a days."-- david peraza, oceano; (3) "His McNuggets haven't dropped yet!" -- J. Mark Pierce, Atascadero; and "Who's he think he's kiddin'"-- Jim Stainbrook, Paso Robles. Mr. Stainbrook was the last caption in, and my personal favorite. Another week where the caption selection committee (?) was too damn lazy to wade into the better part of the entries. The three selected were in the first 24 submitted. Also in the first 24 was four consecutive entries by guys named Steve. J. Mark Pierce also had a clever pun entry with “You deserve a ‘beak’ today” that chuckled me. And I laid several eggs… with no success. Steve of Many -- Arroyo Grande – theschu2@aol.com

The winners of the chainsaw carrying cartoon, critiqued -- “Due to budget cutback, we no longer have an anesthesiologist.” This is not funny. “Good news! Your operation is on Friday the 13th.” I had one similar, I think. Hard to remember all of the gas I put on this fire. This one does work, though. It’s got my vote. “Don't worry, we'll give you some ear plugs before we start!” I’m sure there’s no worry there. I KNOW there’s gotta be a funnier one in the bunch… that one’s verrrrry weak. No hemmorhoid puns in the final three, but that’s to be expected. The Trib doesn’t want to offend. I don’t mind, and my closest was something along the lines (I really can’t remember exactly!) of “We’re just gonna rip you a new one!” Wait’ll they’re all published, I say, because the complete list of entries is where most of the laughs come in this “humorous” Caption Contest! Nice to see a funny looking alligator in this week’s effort. Get on it, folks! I'm off to Cleveland for the weekend. Peace, out! Steve Schumann – Arroyo Grande – theschu2@aol.com

sorry, but none of the finalists made me chuckle...it is going to be very PAINFULL to vote on this one......................................................mine was "Dr. Jason is prepared for your vasectomy".....thanks for your votes on my win last week.....joe

Well you are off, Steve...and after all your hard work using your speak and spell to come up with such a large bowel movement that took 2 message boxes, all i can say is *yaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwnnnnnnnnn* NOBODY CARES WHAT YOU THINK

Hey Cleveland, watch out, Steve said he was coming to your town.

Who is this Steve guy, I read some of his comments on the other articles and am sorry to see his-crap drivel contaminating this part of the site too.

Gotta agree with you Yellow! Just a question, why #47?

I would guess that # 46 is too light and # 48 is too orange?

LMAO... Actually, I color always color my Easter Eggs bright yellow, my personal favorite color and the ingredients on the dye a few years ago said yellow dye #47. It struck me as funny and I have used it since then.
