Photo Caption Contest
Every so often I come across a Jack Benny photo that simply begs for a caption. We've got plenty of wags and comedy writers in the club (and I'm sure more just surfing the site). So here's an opportunity for you to put your creativity to use.
We'll post a photo and give you a couple weeks to submit captions for it.
The following week, I'll post the captions and have you vote on the best one.
The caption(s) with the most votes wins. What do you win? The pride of knowing that you got the most votes, and being identified as the winning caption.
Shampoo, rinse, repeat.
DISCLAIMER: The IJBFC reserves the right to correct spelling, or not accept entries that are not suitable for family viewing. Darn it, I know, but Jack still has fans who haven't hit their 10th birthday yet, so we keep it clean. Clever double-entendres OK (think Mae West).
NOTE: If you need to include quotation marks in your submission, please use single quotes. All double quotes are stripped from submissions for formatting purposes.
Photo for the week of January 30, 2012:
Entries due by 6:00 PM Pacific Time, Sunday, February 12, 2012.
GOOD LUCK!
