September Captions



Congratulations to AmAzOn on the winning entry:





Axman and Omar illustrate the exemplary education available from Deb U.





We had a tie this month. Unfortunately, I can't afford to send out two prizes, so there could only be one winner. But the cats, Yowler and Circle (Gremlyn refused to help break the tie, she felt it was undignified) and the mouse, Timmy (I needed a tie breaker in case the cats reached an impasse) who made the final call would also like to congratulate Aeaea for her entry:

The men werk hard to get sines made four the shcoolgoing chuldren.

They tell me it was a tough call, and had Circle not choked when she tried to eat the paper with AmAzOn's name on it, they might not have reached a decision at all. Good job, AmAzOn and Aeaea; you made it a close contest, and you both deserve congratulations.


Honorable Mention to Cathbad who didn't submit an entry, but instead sent me such an excellent observation, I had to give him credit:


I really don't have a caption, but why is there a barb wire topped fence needed at the school? - Cathbad

Daemon answers: Two words. School lunch.

Thank you to everyone who participated, especially Mania's friend, Joe Cthulhu. It's nice to get some new blood in the mix, and ya made it into the final running, so I hope you'll be back for next month's contest. There were a lot of really good entries this month, you guys made it hard to narrow down, and I still ended up with a tie. So I hope you can keep the creative juices flowing for the month of October... you'll need them not only for this contest, but for Antares' scary story contest. I can't wait to see what y'all come up with for both. :)

Where's Vanna when you really need her?

No, Mr. Quail, I don't think it's spelled that way.
