Winner/Bonus Shot/New Caption Contest

 

And the winner is…. 

 
 

The winner by popular consensus, and because I said so is Jay with, “I think I’m going to go into the priesthood.  And, I’m going to start practicing right after this picture is taken.” Because pedophilia makes us smile! 

 
 
 

Bonus shot…. 

 
 
 
This is one of the things I love about living in rural, Southern Spain; the apocalypse could occur and I wouldn’t know for weeks.
 
 
 
 

 New Caption Contest….  

-January 30th 1965- The Cheney family receives fresh intel that The Kenyan has arrived on the big island.

I know that the dates don’t match up but I don’t care. You are supposed to beat me after all. So all you have to do now is bring the pain. By ‘beat me,’ I mean beat my caption. And by ‘bring the pain,’ I mean bring funny captions. Even though I think the outfits are cool and kinda sexy, I’m not into actual pain. Sorry.

  1. Hmmm – “Little Luke pips Grandpa at the post to nail the pinko-lefties spied breaching the property border” – is all I got…
    Its tough, this caption contest. Like you, your wonderful political leaders is what first came to my mind, although I was going along the lines of Sarah Palin…
    But what really grabs my eye is the little man’s shorts – I love ’em!

    • I think I used to have a pair of those. Lord knows I had enough pairs of ball hugging OP’s. Great caption!

      Thanks RTS!!

  2. Little Kenny, “Dad, do I have to eat everything I kill”, Cheney lines up his new toy, a 50 cal auto-assault weapon, w/200 rounds of ammo, purchased from ‘Guns Be Us”.

    • I think it would always be a good idea… to eat everything you kill. Worked out ok for Dahmer.

      Thanks Jammer!!

  5. Congrats to the winner, and here we go for this one:

    “The squirrel would never raid the bird feeder again, which disappeared along with every other life form within a mile . . .”

    Great picture, Scott! Frightening . . . but great!

    • I’m guessing that their hobbies wouldn’t be conducive to bird watching either.

      Thanks Dan!!

  11. Nice work, Jay. Congrats on the ever-popular blue link.

    I’ll send information of an apocalypse via telegram, Scott. This should buy you a day or two of repenting and whatnot.

    My caption attempt:

    “Grandpa field tests the new ‘Titanic’ home defense system, which utilizes women and children first.”

    Comment by Capitalist Lion Tamer | May 6, 2010 | Reply

    • Thanks for the post-rapture heads up CLT. I don’t think I’ll use it to repent but rather to stockpile weapons, food, women, and pharmaceuticals. For me, that’ll be the best part, the open pharmacies.

      Can you say morphine drip to treat flatulence?

      Thanks CLT!!

  12. Oh crap Jay played the Sarah Palin card first!

    The caption that came to me actually shocked the better part of me – for a nano second anyway
    “Sarah! Jesus Fucking Christ! He’s got Down’s Syndrome, do you really think this is a good idea!?”

    Jay so owned last week’s caption

    Love the road photo, it’s wonderful Scott

    • I gotta say Dianne; so far you are the favorite in my eyes. You just made me spit coffee and that’s always a good sign!

      You really do have to come and see Spain…

      Thanks Dianne!!

  13. Is that a penis hanging from the kids back? Oh hang on it’s that old dude’s nose…My Bad? Hmm, but his arm does look like it’s coming out of his arse.

    • Now that’s the second time today that I spit coffee. That totally looks like a ‘back penis.’

      Thanks Loon!!

      • Blahahaha so the kid can f*** you from the front or the back!

        • He looks like he’ll grow up to be the one who will stab you (or fuck you) in the back!

  16. I don’t know how you’ll ever be able to leave. It looks damned beautiful. Every photo you post makes me wish I could just get on a plane.

    I’m afraid I’m captionless. I thought I had the beginnings of something with the hawaii shirt and the Tom Selleck moustache but…na..

    Comment by Donald Mills | May 7, 2010 | Reply

    • It is beautiful Don. You should just jump on a plane and check it out. I think you’ll find the lifestyle more to your liking…there is certainly more elder respect around here. And the heat is good for your bones.

      Come back if you think of one!

      Thanks Don!!

  17. Gordon Brown, brilands prime-minister under seige after loosing the election, trains his kids to man the door at Number 10 Downing Street to ward off all pretenders to his throne!

    Comment by Dave Hambidge | May 10, 2010 | Reply

    • I guess he’s doing just about everything he can to ward off the pretenders huh? If I were him I’d be firing my audio/video tech.

      Thanks Dave!!

  18. “Nothing says summer like gatling gun” – Yes I know, it’s not a gatling gun, but since I am to over look your dates, you can overlook my misidentification.

    Comment by Ramblin' Rooster | May 11, 2010 | Reply

    • Consider your misidentification overlooked. I’m not that knowledgeable about army type guns anyway. Great caption!

      Thanks Rooster!!
